For the past year, the AI assistant race on iPhones has had only one official challenger: OpenAI’s ChatGPT. When Apple unveiled its partnership with OpenAI at WWDC 2024, it was the clearest signal that the world’s most valuable company had chosen a single AI horse to bet on. That era may be ending sooner than anyone expected.

According to a March 26, 2026 report by Bloomberg, Apple is planning a fundamental shift in how Siri works. In iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27, Siri is set to transform from a single-model assistant into a multi-model routing layer — a gateway that can direct user queries to Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI ChatGPT, or any other AI service that builds an approved Extension.
