Apple in Talks to Power Siri with Google’s Gemini AI as Internal “Bake-Off” Begins
By Isha
Apple is exploring using Google’s Gemini AI to power a revamped Siri, currently delayed due to engineering challenges. According to Bloomberg, Apple is conducting an internal "bake-off," comparing its own model (code-named Linwood) against externally developed options (Glenwood), which include Gemini and previously considered models from Anthropic and OpenAI. Google has reportedly begun training a Gemini model tailored to run on Apple’s servers.
