Apple and Google formalize their collaboration to enhance Siri with Gemini

The focus of the operation concerns the relaunch of Siri, which should receive a significant update by the end of the year to better understand the user’s personal context and act autonomously between applications. Among the planned functions stands out “World Knowledge Answers”, a system capable of synthesizing information from the web by exploiting the potential of Gemini 3, a model that has recently climbed the industry rankings. This acceleration comes after a period of internal instability, marked by the farewell of the historic head of AI John Giannandrea and the passing of the command of the division to Mike Rockwell, already responsible for the Vision Pro project. The change at the top and the collaboration with Google, which follows the previous agreement with OpenAI, confirm Apple’s desire to transform itself into an aggregator of different models, with possible future openings also towards Anthropic and Perplexity
