Apple Releases macOS 27 "Golden Gate," Dropping Support for Intel Macs
The update introduces a new Siri AI assistant, refinements to the Liquid Glass interface and performance improvements, but is limited to Apple Silicon devices.

Apple has released macOS 27, code-named "Golden Gate," according to a report from The Verge. The company made the update available on Monday.
The Verge reported that the release includes a new version of the Siri AI assistant, along with improvements to the "Liquid Glass" visual interface first introduced in earlier versions of macOS. The update also brings general performance enhancements, according to the report.
Per The Verge, macOS 27 is compatible with all Mac computers that use Apple Silicon chips. However, the update does not support Intel-based Macs. The report noted that Apple had already released its final major software update for Intel Macs last year, with macOS Tahoe.
The Verge described the new Siri AI assistant as "arguably" a significant part of the update, though further details on its specific capabilities were not fully outlined in the available excerpt of the report.
Apple did not immediately provide additional comment beyond what was included in the report.
