Google CEO Sundar Pichai has revealed that Google and Apple are in talks to add Gemini, Google’s AI chatbot, to Apple’s Siri. This big news came out during a U.S. antitrust trial, where Pichai confirmed under oath that the deal could be ready by mid-2025.

Apple CEO Tim Cook Showed Interest in Google’s AI
Pichai said he had several discussions with Apple CEO Tim Cook last year. Cook was curious to learn about Google’s AI plans, including how Gemini might be used. These talks show Apple’s interest in using different AI tools—not just its own.
New Chapter in Apple and Google’s Relationship
Even though Apple and Google are competitors, they have worked together in the past. For example, Google Search is the default on Safari, and YouTube was one of the first iPhone apps. Now, they may become AI partners too.
Siri May Get Smarter with Gemini
Apple has already partnered with OpenAI to bring ChatGPT into Siri for complex tasks. If Apple teams up with Google, Siri could use Gemini to handle tricky or advanced questions. The feature would be optional for users.
Code in iOS Hints at Gemini Integration
Hints of this deal are already showing up in Apple’s beta software. Analysts have found code in iOS 18.4 that points to support for third-party AI models—Google being one of them.
Deal May Be Announced at WWDC 2025
Although there is no official deal yet, Pichai’s comment about mid-2025 suggests an announcement could happen soon—possibly during Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference on June 9, 2025.
Why This Deal Matters for Both Tech Giants
For Google, this is a chance to bring Gemini to billions of iPhone users. For Apple, it means giving people more choices in how they use AI on their devices. It also shows Apple’s willingness to work with outside AI models to stay competitive.
All Eyes on the Courtroom
This courtroom isn’t just about Google’s legal issues—it may also become the place where a major tech partnership is revealed. If finalized, the Google-Apple deal could shape the future of AI on smartphones.
