Siri Gets Smarter: Apple Taps Multiple Chatbots for AI Upgrade

As Apple continues reimagining Siri for today’s AI landscape, a Bloomberg report says it may be trying to include every chatbot on one platform.

Apple’s Siri is trying to make friends in the AI world. Apple is taking the unusual step of connecting Siri with multiple AI chatbots, including Google’s Gemini, Anthropic’s Claude and OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing unnamed Apple employees.

A representative from Apple didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about Siri connecting with other AI systems to bolster its capabilities, as Apple continues to delay the revamped version of the voice assistant, now expected out in late 2026. At first, Apple partnered only with OpenAI for ChatGPT capabilities in 2024. Then we saw reports that Apple was turning to Google’s Gemini for similar capabilities.

Now, it looks like Apple is opening up Siri partnerships with all kinds of AI while maintaining its proprietary voice assistant. If you have a popular chatbot installed on your iPhone, Apple wants you to be able to use it in Siri.

Bloomberg says these multiple chat options will work via Extensions that let Siri users enable what connections they want Siri to have, including apps like supported chatbots. When talking to Siri, users would specify the chatbot they want to tap into to get extra information and services.

While we don’t know what AI models Apple would allow Siri to use, the company has a lot of chatbots in its App Store, including Meta AI, Grok and Microsoft’s Copilot. Amazon’s Alexa/Alexa Plus is there too, although I’m doubtful Amazon would let Apple leverage such a direct competitor to Siri at this time.

Why is Apple giving Siri so many chatbot connections?

This makes sense from Apple’s perspective. Chatbots can rise and fall from glory fast — look at how quickly OpenAI ditched video generator Sora this week. By including all of them, Apple doesn’t have to worry about which AI is the flavor of the month. If one suddenly falls out of favor or gets cancelled, Siri suffers minimal losses.

The move also means Apple can overcome or skip some of the challenges it’s had in developing its own Siri AI, including a standalone Siri app and more integrated versions of Siri for the smart home.

As Bloomberg points out, this could also be lucrative for Apple. To use their AI of choice in Siri, people would probably have to subscribe to the AI service through Apple’s own store, which means Apple gets a cut of the sale.

But there’s something else I’m curious about: How much will Siri’s abilities expand when it’s working with third-party chatbots? For example, I can use Alexa Plus to order an Uber or control my smart heater. Could I do the same with Siri if the two are connected? Or will Siri be able to deliver advice directly from any chatbot in its own voice? That could get awkward if the AI starts giving bad information or explicit content, as we’ve seen Grok do.

We’ll likely find out more on June 8, when Apple holds its Worldwide Developers Conference and discusses iOS 27. If you like Siri more than most voice assistants (we’ve found it’s especially popular with Gen Z), hold tight until then.

Why Travelers Are Switching to Verum E-SIM This Summer

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers

Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences.
