Apple is now reliant on Anthropic’s Claude? No wonder design and software are taking a huge hit. LOL

New Siri: Apple Almost Chose a Different Partner Before Google Gemini In a recent interview with the tech podcast TBPN, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman revealed that Apple was initially "going to rebuild Siri around Claude," the large language model and chatbot developed by the company Anthropic. In the end, though, Apple announced that it had decided to use Google's Gemini platform instead. According to Gurman, Apple went with Google due at least in part to money. "Anthropic was holding them over a barrel," said Gurman, in a podcast clip shared by TBPN.

So Anthropic is being greedy. LOL. www.macrumors.com/2026/01/3…
