New Delhi: Apple has big idea in changing Siri, its voice assistant that assists people to use their iPhones and other gadgets. Soon the company will begin to utilize Artificial Intelligence (AI) model created by Google in order to make Siri significantly smarter and helpful. This is among the largest of the Apple steps in the AI field and it demonstrates how serious the company is in enhancing the capabilities of Siri.
The new AI model that will be used in Apple is reported to be among the strongest in the world. It contains approximately 1.2 trillion parameters that are the small settings assisting the AI in learning, comprehending, and reacting to individuals. An AI model is capable of dealing with a lot more information and comprehending questions or commands the more parameters it has. The AI system used by Apple is smaller, and thus, the company chose to collaborate with Google to ensure Siri works better.
Siri 2.0
Siri is not new, and it is over ten years old, however, what has changed is that many believe it has not advanced much as compared to other assistants such as Google Assistant or Alexa. Siri usually has difficulties with lengthy or complicated questions, and it fails to perform the same tasks that other voice assistants can. Apple desires to make this different and provide users a far smarter and useful Siri. Siri will know more difficult questions, be able to grasp longer discussions, and will do more complex tasks with the help of the AI technology of Google.
The Siri will be powered by the Google AI model, but the name and the logo of Google will not be displayed on the screen. All this will just continue to appear and sound like Siri, but it will run on the Google technology silently in the background. The privacy of users will also remain secure at Apple. The user data will remain on the Apple servers and will not be transferred to Google. This implies that though the AI of Google assists Siri, Apple will still be in control and safeguard user data.
Apple is scheduled to launch this new edition of Siri in the year 2026 to its users. Upon arrival, people can anticipate Siri to be more fast, intelligent and precise. It can probably do such things as organize your day, assist you with your homework, summarize news, and even assist you in writing emails and messages. It may also be better integrated with other Apple products and services. As an example, when you ask Siri to plan a trip, it will perhaps consult your calendar, check the maps, offer flights, and even reminding you to pack the bag.
Will Google turn it into Apple’s need?
Although Apple collaborates with Google, it simultaneously creates their own AI. The company does not wish to be reliant on Google indefinitely.
This collaboration will allow Apple to have a little more time to lay down its own groundwork and at the same time provide the user with a more enjoyable experience in the present. Apple can be substituting the model used by Google with its own in the future.
The collaboration between Apple and Google is an intriguing subject as the two firms tend to be major rivals. The phone sold by Apple is the iPhone and Google is the Android phones. However, with AI, even large competitors collaborate with each other in cases when it is more beneficial to them.
Apple is in the offing with Google where it is likely to pay approximately one billion dollars annually. This deal will allow Apple to utilize Google Gemini AI model to drive the new Siri. This is a giant leap on the part of Apple that typically works with its own systems, but now it requires the assistance of Google until its AI becomes more powerful.
Gemini model of Google is colossal, its number of parameters is approximately 1.2 trillion, whereas the Apple has only approximately 150 billion. Apple selected the model of Google after trying the alternative AI, and the new Siri might be available in the next spring, although plans might evolve.
