Apple Doesn’t Avoid GPT — It Avoids Dependence

More Willing to Integrate Into Other Systems And Even Eventually Fully Merge Into Microsoft This is not a sign of weakness. It is a strategic move to ensure that the company is never excluded from the core access layer of the ecosystem. 4️⃣ What About Apple? You’re right. Apple did, in fact, want GPT at the beginning. From a pure capability standpoint: GPT is currently the most mature and general-purpose LLM on the market. It has the strongest brand recognition among users. Apple would be unrealistic not to consider fully adopting GPT. But here is the key issue— Apple has never allowed any external partner to become the single, irreplaceable brain of its core user experience. 5️⃣ Why Gemini Cannot Be Removed—Only Assigned a Role For Apple, Gemini’s role is not about being the “best.” It is about balance and replaceability. In Apple’s AI architecture: Gemini handles first-layer, everyday system tasks. GPT functions as a high-level generation and reasoning plug-in. This structure allows Apple to: Avoid being locked into a single model Preserve negotiation leverage Adjust the balance between models at any time in the future 6️⃣ Is It Possible That Siri Will Fully Use GPT in the Future? Yes, it is possible. But there is only one condition: That GPT no longer represents a bargaining or dependency risk— and instead becomes just one capability option among many. Only then would Apple truly feel comfortable. Apple today is not unwilling to use GPT. Apple simply refuses to allow any AI to build an unreplaceable moat inside Siri.
