Apple to integrate third-party AI chatbots with Siri

Apple's upcoming iOS 17 update is set to introduce a significant change to Siri, allowing users to integrate their preferred AI chatbots. This new feature, reportedly named 'Extensions,' will enable chatbots downloaded from the App Store, such as Google's Gemini or Anthropic's Claude, to provide responses through Siri. This mirrors the existing integration with OpenAI's ChatGPT. Users will have control over which chatbots are connected to Siri across iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices, enhancing Siri's capabilities and offering greater user choice in AI assistance.
