Apple Inc. plans to let third-party AI assistants integrate with Siri in its iOS
27 update, expanding beyond its current partnership with OpenAI’s ChatGPT. The
move aims to strengthen the iPhone’s AI ecosystem as Apple seeks to catch up
with competitors. The new “Extensions” system will allow apps like Alphabet
Inc.’s Gemini or Anthropic’s Claude to handle queries within Siri. Apple is
expected to unveil the changes at its June developer conference, while also
pursuing new revenue from AI subscriptions via the App Store.
