According to a report by The Information, Apple is partnering with Google and Nvidia to power the next-generation, AI-infused Siri. But it’s not just a normal partnership; Apple will strongly rely on Nvidia’s Blackwell chips and Google’s Gemini AI model.
It’s an interesting shift in strategy as Apple is usually known for either diversifying or taking the development of its products in-house. However, the latest report suggests that some Siri queries will run on Google Cloud on a licensed version of Gemini.
Additionally, Google’s data center will make use of Nvidia’s Blackwell B200 chips with a baked-in confidential compute feature that encrypts the data as it’s being processed on the chip itself.
This way, Apple is covering all bases when it comes to privacy and security, despite some of the queries running on a third-party cloud and not on Apple’s devices or servers.
We will likely see the first iteration of the smarter Siri this September.
