Tim Cook says more AIs are coming to Apple Intelligence

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about third-party integrations, says Craig Federighi, SVP of Apple software said last year that the company “can look forward to integrations with different models such as Google Gemini in the future.”

Cook also said that Apple is on track to release an AI-upgraded Siri next year, adding that “our intention is to integrate with more people over time.” Apple is making “good progress” on Siri, he added during an earnings call on Thursday, noting that AI acquisitions are still on the table. “We are open to mergers and acquisitions [mergers and acquisitions] if we think it will advance our roadmap,” Cook said, following a statement from July.

The news comes as Apple releases it fourth quarter earnings figureswhich showed that the company raised a record $102.5 billion in recent months, an increase of eight percent compared to the same period last year.

iPhone 17 series sales are likely to represent only a small portion of Apple’s total iPhone revenue of $49.03 billion. The new lineup includes the iPhone Air – Apple’s own thinnest device yet – along with the upgraded iPhone 17 And 17 Pro. This year, Apple has brought a number of features previously reserved for its Pro-level iPhones to its entry-level model, including an always-on display with ProMotion support for smoother scrolling.

Apple’s Mac revenue rose to $8.72 billion, and Apple reported $6.95 billion in iPad revenue. Apple’s services division, which includes subscriptions to Apple TV, Apple Music, Apple Fitness Plus and Apple Arcade, grew to $28.8 billion.
