An upcoming tvOS 27.2.1 update will bring Siri AI to the 2nd- and 3rd-generation Apple TV 4K models, according to Apple.
A support document outlining Siri AI requirements across Apple products says tvOS 27.2.1 supports Siri AI on the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation and later), but the software hasn’t yet been released.
While older Apple TV models will need tvOS 27.2.1 for Siri AI, Apple appears to have a special Siri AI build of tvOS 27.2 for the 4th-generation Apple TV 4K. Reviewers were able to test Siri AI on review units, and we can confirm it’s working on our own review unit running tvOS 27.2.
The 4th-generation Apple TV 4K ships with tvOS 27.0, and users are prompted to update it to tvOS 27.2 during the setup process.
Apple hasn’t said when tvOS 27.2.1 will be released with Siri AI for older Apple TV 4K models, but it could come as soon as Friday.
The latest Apple TV is priced at $299, and it features an A19 chip and an updated Siri Remote that has a Find My speaker and Precision Finding support. Siri AI on the Apple TV requires a nearby paired Siri AI-enabled device like an iPhone 15 Pro or later.
