ChatGPT seemed like the untouchable king of AI. Over the last year Google has eaten up almost all of its lead
Apple and Google have closed an agreement historic for the next generation of Apple Foundation Models to rely on Gemini models and Google cloud technology. In other words, the expected new Siri It will take Google’s artificial intelligence technology underneath. Beyond the news, the agreement places Google in a position that it has been pursuing for years: that of, finally, being the main winner in this latest AI cycle. The agreement. Quick context: The AI race has led Apple to lean on Gemini to reinvent Siri. Since he announced Apple Intelligence In 2024, Apple showed that it needs OpenAI for advanced responses from Siri (given by ChatGPT) and third parties like Google for functions such as Visual Search. Following the new agreement, it is confirmed that the next Apple Intelligence features will be built on Google’s cloud and its Gemini models. A victory for a Google that has been achieving the unthinkable with its AI model since last year. ChatGPT no longer competes alone. Until just a year ago, talking about AI was talking almost exclusively about ChatGPT. The rest of the competitors were minority alternatives intended for very specific uses such as development environments, image generation, or rich web browsers. Gemini is making the picture change, ChatGPT seemed to be everything in AI, it is no longer. From blow to blow. Google is managing to position Gemini as an alternative to ChatGPT by hitting the table. With Nano Bananaforced OpenAI to update its image generation models, since the distance between them was abysmal. With Antigravity it is a before and after for personal programming projects. Google is pressing the accelerator with your flash modelskeys to one of the greatest demands of the average user: response speed. Muscle and checkbook. Google plays in another league compared to OpenAI when it comes to cash generation. AI is not its main business model, it operates its own data centers and has complete control of the hardware necessary for its development. OpenAI depends on agreements with giants like Microsoft and Amazon, and you are going through hell to become profitable. Earn a lot of money, but the numbers still don’t come out. A clear strategy. Google has a well-defined strategy and a key that none of its rivals can compete with: it is the distributor of the most used mobile operating system in the world. Billions of smartphones that land on the market every year and that, just a year ago, They arrive with Gemini as the default assistant. Google had the user base, it just needed the product. Now that you have it, the question is how long OpenAI can hold off Gemini’s dam.
