The new AI Siri will reportedly be powered by Gemini

It looks like Apple finally has a plan for its long-awaited Siri overhaul. According to reporting from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the company’s next-generation digital assistant will be powered by Google’s Gemini AI.

In Gurman’s latest Power On newsletter, he confirmed that the upgraded Siri will run a custom Gemini model hosted on Apple’s private cloud compute servers. This setup will enable Siri to answer more personalized questions by drawing on on-device data and generating context-aware responses.

The new Siri, per Bloomberg, is built around three main components: a query planner, a knowledge search system, and a summarizer. The Gemini models running on Apple’s servers will handle the planning and summarization processes.

Gurman notes that Apple is betting big on this new Siri upgrade, relying heavily on Gemini’s power and Google’s experience in search. But users shouldn’t expect Siri to suddenly become an Android clone. Instead, Apple is using Gemini as the backbone for smarter, faster responses while keeping the overall experience tightly integrated into its own ecosystem.

If Gurman’s reporting holds true, the revamped Siri is expected to debut as soon as next spring with the iOS 26.4 update. Fingers crossed it actually shows up on schedule.
