Apple will reportedly allow other AI chatbots to plug into Siri

TL;DR

Apple is reportedly planning a new 'Extensions' system in iOS 27 that lets third-party chatbots like Google Gemini and Anthropic Claude plug into Siri.

Key Points

  • Users will be able to choose which chatbots connect with Siri and toggle them on or off across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
  • Until now, only OpenAI's ChatGPT was integrated into Siri; the new system opens Apple's voice assistant to the broader AI market.
  • According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, linked chatbots will fetch replies for Siri on demand – similar to the existing ChatGPT hook.

Nauti's Take

Apple is playing it smart: letting the best AI win within their ecosystem rather than betting everything on one chatbot partner. The real winner here is whoever Siri users actually trust — and Apple gets the lock-in either way.
