Apple said to showcase Gemini-powered Siri next month
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Apple had selected Google’s Gemini models to power a new version of Siri. Now, a fresh report suggests the company could showcase the revamped assistant as early as next month.
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is set to unveil the results of its Gemini partnership in February, most likely in the second half of the month. The company is expected to demo Siri’s new capabilities during an event or media briefing.
Gurman notes that the new assistant, expected to be unveiled next month, will be capable of using personal data and understanding on-screen content to carry out actions.
As per the report, Apple will rely on Google’s Gemini models to power the new Siri, though internally the company is referring to it as “Apple Foundation Models version 10.” The model is hosted on Apple’s own Private Cloud Compute servers. The upgraded assistant is set to debut with iOS 26.4, which is expected to enter beta testing in February.
Meanwhile, Apple will unveil the fully-revamped, chatbot-style Siri only at WWDC 2026. It is said to be included in the iOS 27 update.
