Apple seems to be making a big change with its voice assistant Siri, and the updates are said to be revealed by March 2026. If we go by some latest reports, Siri will be backed by a custom version of Google Gemini, and will bring new web-search and AI-powered features to Apple’s ecosystem.
Interestingly, Apple is said to be paying Google to create a custom Gemini-based model that runs on Apple’s own Private Cloud Compute servers. That means users won’t see any Google branding or Gemini features in Siri’s interface. But the Google model will work behind the scenes to power Siri’s responses and enable richer, AI-driven interactions.
