I have been wearing Google's screenless Fitbit Air for a few weeks now, and while comparisons to its luxury counterpart, the Whoop, abound, testing Google's health tracker put my mind on its biggest rival, Apple, instead.

While I'd be happy to see Apple ship a screenless health tracker of its own, what I'd much rather see is a substantial upgrade to its own health suite -- and that starts with software.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference kicks off Monday, and the software unveiled there will ship on Apple's next-gen products. It might not seem like it, but WWDC could mark a turning point for the tech giant, with its rumored Siri revamp at the center of it all. Here's why.

Google's Gemini will power the next generation of Siri, the two companies announced earlier this year. Companies use each other's software all the time -- but Apple is no average company. Steve Jobs notoriously kept Apple's hardware and software closed, with little interest in integrating his products into Android devices or bringing Google products into Apple's ecosystem.

Alas, it's 2026, AI has flooded Android's hardware, and Apple has run shallow on its own. It was about time Apple made a deal.
