Apple is exploring the use of AI technology from Anthropic PBC or OpenAI for a new Siri version to enhance its struggling AI efforts.
The company has held discussions with Anthropic and OpenAI to train versions of their large language models for Siri on Apple's cloud infrastructure.
This potential shift from using in-house AI models to third-party models like Claude or ChatGPT would indicate Apple's challenge in the generative AI space.
Apple's investigation into third-party models is in early stages, with no final decision made, alongside ongoing development of an internal project called LLM Siri.
