apple, iOS 27, iPadOS 27 And macOS 27 with Apple Intelligence It is preparing to offer the user the opportunity to choose an artificial intelligence model. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the company plans to make third-party chatbots system-wide in operating systems that will be released in the fall of 2026. This change will include features such as Writing Tools and Image Playground, as well as Siri. iPhone, iPad and Mac users will be able to choose different options other than Apple’s own models.

According to the information provided by Gurman, Apple uses the name “Extensions” for this support. When compatible artificial intelligence providers add the necessary support to their applications in the App Store, users will be able to choose these models through Settings. Like this ChatGPT, Google Gemini or Anthropic’s models will be able to take on broader roles within Apple Intelligence. Today, Apple only offers ChatGPT as a third-party model.

In the current Apple Intelligence experience, ChatGPT works in conjunction with Siri and Authoring Tools. The Apple Support page shows that users can turn on ChatGPT integration from Apple Intelligence and Siri settings. OpenAI also explains on its help page that ChatGPT works with Siri and also contributes to Authoring Tools for text generation and editing. If the new plan is implemented, Apple will not limit this area to a single external provider.

In addition, Apple plans to offer different Siri voices for different artificial intelligence models. According to Gurman, Siri responses working with Apple’s own model may use a voice, while Siri responses produced by ChatGPT or another model may come with a different voice. This distinction can make it easier to understand which model is responding. This preference on the voice side of Siri may play a more visible role in Apple Intelligence settings.
