Apple Inc. is considering using artificial intelligence technology from Anthropic PBC or OpenAI to power a new version of Siri, sidelining its own in-house models in a potentially blockbuster move aimed at turning around its flailing AI effort.

Apple is reportedly testing Anthropic's Claude and OpenAI models to replace Siri’s core AI, as executives weigh a shift away from in-house technology.

A previous Bloomberg report in March said Apple did not provide the resources needed for the company to develop an AI-powered Siri. Apple had not focused on AI until OpenAI’s ChatGPT changed the tech landscape in late 2022, which set Apple (and other companies) scrambling.
