After failing to release its AI-powered Siri last year, Apple needs to do some major surgery on its voice assistant ASAP.

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.

If you're getting impatient waiting for Apple to release its long-promised AI upgrade for Siri, well, Apple might agree. There have been reports that Apple is talking with OpenAI and Anthropic about letting one of them power the next generation of Siri.
