What's still developing
- This is also the last version of macOS to support Rosetta for Intel apps.
- It can also directly interact with applications when developers have added support for that.
- There’s now a dedicated Siri app, kind of similar in some respects to the classic ChatGPT or Claude apps.
- There’s nothing radically new in terms of design here, but this is a much-needed polish pass.
