Historic Alliance Between Competitors: Apple Uses Google's "Gemini" AI to Develop Siri

Apple and Google have announced a strategic partnership that will last for years, where Apple will rely on advanced AI features from Gemini, including its voice assistant Siri, in a move considered a historic shift for a company known for developing its technologies internally.

Unprecedented Alliance Between Competitors

This collaboration comes between two companies that have competed for years in the smartphone market, where Apple's iOS and Google's Android dominate.
The joint statement indicated that Apple chose Gemini after a thorough evaluation, confirming that it provides "the most capable foundation" for its ambitions in the field of artificial intelligence.

Controversy and Regulation

Despite the profitable partnership for both parties, it has raised concerns among regulatory bodies regarding monopolies, with some considering the agreement as support for Google's position in the search market, while a judge confirmed the legal possibility of the partnership continuing.
Elon Musk criticized the deal, describing it as "an unreasonable concentration of power in favor of Google."

Future Prospects

Apple is also considering potential partnerships with other companies in the field of artificial intelligence, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity, in a move to enhance the capabilities of its future devices and expand user options.
