Report: iOS 27 to let Siri work with any third-party chatbot

Macworld Now that we know that Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference is set for June 8, we’re going to start hearing about what could be included in the OS 27 updates. Perhaps the most anticipated update is with Siri, which we’ve been eagerly awaiting since it’s supposed to bring Apple up to the level of ChatGPT and Claude. A new report by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman sheds some light on how Apple will further integrate AI. While Apple has been working on a new and improved Siri that works like a chatbot, Gurman reports that Apple will allow third-party chatbots to integrate with Siri. It will work in a similar fashion as the ChatGPT integration currently works, with users able to send their queries to Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, etc., instead of having Siri handle it. OS 27 will reportedly let users set which service they want to use through an Extensions option in Siri’s settings. Links for chatbots will be provided if the third-party chatbot app is not installed. T
