⚠️Apple is pivoting its entire AI strategy not by competing directly, but by turning the iPhone into the central marketplace for AI. Instead of spending billions like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta on AI infrastructure, Apple has actually reduced spending leading to a gap in AI capability. So rather than trying to catch up, Apple is changing the game: • It’s introducing AI “extensions” in iOS 27, allowing chatbots like Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, and Copilot to plug directly into Siri • Users can choose which AI to use, turning Siri into a hub for multiple AI services instead of a single assistant At the same time: • Apple is still building its own AI • It’s partnering with Google to power parts of Siri using Gemini models • And it takes a cut of subscriptions from AI apps through the App Store Apple isn’t trying to win the AI arms race, it’s positioning itself as the gatekeeper, letting others spend billions while it controls access to users and monetizes every player in the ecosystem. @aipost🏴
