This is the biggest change to Siri since its launch back in 2011 on the iPhone 4S.<\/p>\n
Why Apple Turned to Google and Nvidia<\/h2>\n

To understand the scale of the decision, you need to know the background. For years, Apple developed its own cloud infrastructure \u2014 Private Cloud Compute<\/strong> \u2014 based on Apple Silicon chips from the Mac series. The system was announced as an answer to the privacy question: your data is processed on Apple\u2019s servers, not someone else\u2019s.<\/p>\n But when engineers tried to run large language models on Private Cloud Compute at the scale of Gemini, it turned out that the system worked too slowly<\/strong>. Trillion-parameter-class models require specialized AI-class hardware, which server-grade Apple Silicon chips simply are not.<\/p>\n At the same time, Siri had been lagging behind ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini for years \u2014 and this gap was becoming increasingly noticeable. Delays in Apple Intelligence features announced back at WWDC 2024 became one of the reasons that accelerated the CEO change: Tim Cook is stepping down in September, and this inability to catch up with competitors is part of the legacy that the new team is now fixing.<\/p>\n Instead of simply moving Siri to Google servers, Apple chose a much more elegant solution \u2014 a hybrid architecture where each request receives exactly as many resources as it needs. This solves the performance problem while keeping as much data as possible on the device.<\/p>\n Apple is implementing a hybrid approach<\/strong> to Siri request processing:<\/p>\n This is a logical solution: it preserves speed for everyday actions and provides power for complex ones. This is how, for example, ChatGPT works on iPhone \u2014 basic functions are built in, while heavy tasks go to OpenAI\u2019s servers.<\/p>\n According to The Information, Apple is paying Google about $1 billion a year<\/strong> for licensed access to a custom version of Gemini. This version of Gemini has around 1.2 trillion parameters<\/strong> \u2014 an ultra-large-scale model that matches the most powerful systems available today.<\/p>\n The very fact that payment is happening on this scale is telling. This is not a minor deal, but a strategic partnership that Google and Apple confirmed in a joint statement earlier this year: \u201cThe next generation of Apple Foundation Models will be built on Google\u2019s Gemini technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n The Google cloud infrastructure that Apple will use is built on Nvidia Blackwell B200<\/strong> \u2014 the most powerful GPUs for AI tasks, which replaced the Hopper architecture in 2024. Blackwell B200 is designed to work with trillion-parameter models and provides a significant increase in speed and memory compared with the previous generation.<\/p>\n But the key detail is not the power itself, but Nvidia\u2019s Confidential Computing<\/strong> technology. It encrypts data directly on the chip at the moment of processing \u2014 meaning that even if someone gains access to the physical server, it will be impossible to read your request. Nvidia describes it this way: it \u201cpreserves the confidentiality and integrity of AI models, allowing workloads to run securely even in shared cloud environments.\u201d<\/p>\n This is exactly what allows Apple to claim that privacy is preserved \u2014 even when the request is processed neither on the device nor on Apple\u2019s servers.<\/p>\n In short, almost everything is changing. Siri stops being a set of separate commands and becomes a single AI agent that understands the context of your life and is able to act, not just respond. Here are the specific new capabilities expected in iOS 27.<\/p>\n The new Siri is no longer the assistant that set timers and checked the weather. According to sources, it is a full-fledged AI agent<\/strong> capable of:<\/p>\n An important nuance: Apple has not yet officially shown the new Siri publicly. All the details come from The Information\u2019s report and previous leaks. WWDC on June 8 will be the first official announcement where it will become clear what will actually be in iOS 27 in September.<\/p>\n This question naturally arises for everyone: if my Siri request goes to Google\u2019s servers \u2014 where is Apple privacy in that?<\/p>\n Apple answers this through three layers of protection:<\/p>\n Will this satisfy critics? Hardly all of them. But technically, Confidential Computing is a real protection mechanism, not a marketing promise.<\/p>\n The company that built a $3 trillion capitalization on the principle of \u201cwe do everything ourselves\u201d is, for the first time, acknowledging that its own resources are not enough in the AI model race. This is not weakness \u2014 it is pragmatism.<\/p>\n According to estimates, in 2025 Apple purchased around 250 Nvidia NVL72 servers at about $4 million each \u2014 and even that turned out to be too little for working with Gemini-scale models. Google, meanwhile, has thousands of such servers in its cloud infrastructure.<\/p>\n The AI performance race is primarily an infrastructure race. And here, even Apple is playing by the rules of a market where Nvidia has won.<\/p>\n When will the new Siri be released?<\/strong> The new Siri is expected in September 2026 alongside iOS 27. A detailed announcement will take place at WWDC 2026 on June 8.<\/p>\n Why is Apple using Google Gemini for Siri?<\/strong> Apple\u2019s own cloud system, Private Cloud Compute, turned out to be too slow for large AI models. Google Cloud with Nvidia Blackwell B200 provides the required performance.<\/p>\n Is it safe to send Siri requests through Google?<\/strong> Apple uses Nvidia Confidential Computing technology, which encrypts data directly on the chip during processing. Requests are not linked to Apple ID.<\/p>\n How much is Apple paying Google for Gemini?<\/strong> According to The Information, Apple is paying about $1 billion a year for licensed access to a custom version of Gemini with ~1.2 trillion parameters.<\/p>\n The article was prepared by the TechVisor team \u2014 practical IT media for people.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New Siri artificial intelligence will become a reality in September 2026 \u2014 but the price of this step turned out to be unexpected.
