Apple announced that its upcoming, more intelligent version of Siri will be powered by Google’s Gemini large‑language models. The partnership, described as multi‑year, lets Apple run Gemini on its Private Cloud Compute infrastructure, keeping user data isolated from Google’s servers. Apple highlighted the decision after an extensive evaluation, noting Gemini provides the most capable foundation for its future foundation models. Bloomberg reported that Apple may pay roughly $1 billion a year for the access and that Apple still aims to eventually replace third‑party models with its own in‑house technology. Leia mais →

Apple is close to finalizing a multi‑year agreement with Google that would let the tech giant’s Gemini model power key functions of Siri. The deal, reported to be worth roughly $1 billion per year, is intended to address shortcomings in Apple’s own Apple Intelligence initiative, which has been criticized for limited capabilities. Internally, the project is dubbed “Glenwood,” while the new Siri version carries the codename “Linwood” and is slated for inclusion in an upcoming iOS release. Apple plans to blend Gemini’s capabilities with its private‑cloud infrastructure to preserve user privacy. Leia mais →

Apple is planning to integrate a custom version of Google's Gemini large‑language model into its upcoming Siri update slated for 2026. The partnership will run Gemini on Apple’s Private Cloud Compute infrastructure to handle Siri’s summarizer and planner functions, while the assistant will still rely on Apple‑built models for other tasks. Apple is expected to pay Google roughly $1 billion annually for the technology and aims to eventually replace Gemini with its own trillion‑parameter cloud model for consumer use. Leia mais →

Apple is set to enhance Siri by integrating a custom version of Google’s Gemini AI model. The partnership involves Apple paying Google around $1 billion each year for access to the technology, which will run on Apple’s Private Cloud Compute infrastructure. While Gemini will handle many new capabilities, Apple will continue to use its own models for certain Siri functions. The move follows a period of delayed AI feature rollouts and earlier consideration of OpenAI and Anthropic solutions. CEO Tim Cook announced the updated Siri is expected next spring, with openness to further third‑party AI integrations. Leia mais →

Apple is reportedly in early talks with Google to use a version of the Gemini AI model for its upcoming Siri redesign. Bloomberg reports that Google would train a Gemini variant capable of running on Apple’s servers, while Apple continues to develop two internal Siri prototypes—Linwood, based on its own models, and Glenwood, which would rely on external technology. The decision comes amid delays to Siri’s iOS 18 rollout and internal reshuffling of Apple’s AI projects. If adopted, Gemini could operate via Apple’s Private Cloud Compute, offering added security and putting Apple in a position similar to Samsung’s Galaxy AI, which blends custom models with Gemini.
