3:03Now PlayingAlphabet Inc.’s Google confirmed that it has entered a multiyear deal with Apple Inc. to power the iPhone maker’s artificial intelligence technology, including the Siri voice assistant. Bloomberg's Anurag Rana joins to discuss.
“After careful evaluation, Apple determined that Google’s AI technology provides the most capable foundation for Apple Foundation Models and is excited about the innovative new experiences it will unlock for Apple users,” the two companies said Monday in a joint statement. Terms of the agreement weren’t disclosed.
Bloomberg reported late last year that the two companies were finalizing such a deal, with Apple planning to pay about $1 billion a year.

Shares of Alphabet rose as much as 1.7% Monday, while Apple was up less than 1%.
In the statement, the companies said that Apple would maintain its privacy standards by continuing to run its AI services on consumers’ devices or via Private Cloud Compute — a secure online system. The Google technology will help support a new version of Siri that is due this year.
Apple had previously delayed the update after development snags, part of broader struggles to introduce AI features.
