According to The Information, the Siri-powered development tool allows, for example, an animal to move around a room and move around without having to design an animal object from scratch, calculate its movement in a space with obstacles, and program animations.

Apple is also working on a way to create 3D models for apps by scanning real-world objects with a headset. Combining model creation with scanning and application development using Siri is thought to significantly lower the barriers to entry for creating AR applications for headsets.

When the media inquired about Apple's development status, etc., Apple did not return any particular comments.
