Overview
- OpenAI is working with outside lawyers and may send Apple a breach-of-contract notice over how ChatGPT was built into Siri, according to multiple news reports.
- OpenAI argues the Siri link is low visibility because users must say “ChatGPT,” responses show in a small pane with less detail, and Apple has not promoted the feature across devices.
- The company expected the Apple tie-up to boost ChatGPT subscriptions and deepen use across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, but those gains did not appear and efforts to renegotiate stalled.
- Apple is preparing iOS 27 to let people choose third-party AI models inside Siri, and it has been testing Anthropic’s Claude and Google’s Gemini for that option, Bloomberg reported.
- Separately from the ChatGPT link, Apple and Google have announced a technical tie that will use Gemini to power an updated Siri later this year.
