The article contains editorializing and sensationalism. The author makes statements about Apple's 'fall behind the competition' and Siri being 'forgotten toys'. These are not facts but opinions. The author also uses phrases like 'general sentiment that Apple is being left behind in the field of artificial intelligence' which is an emotional manipulation to create a sense of urgency. The article also selectively reports information by focusing on Apple's potential deal with ChatGPT and ignoring any potential deal with Google, giving a one-sided view of the situation.
Many of the expectations regarding Apple’s next moves focus on what could be a dramatic revamp of its Siri voice assistant to make it truly intelligent.
Siri The 2022 arrival of ChatGPT, with its vastly superior capacity to listen, give responses and even chat with users, made Apple’s fall behind the competition when it came to voice-activated assistants all the more evident.

Fallacies

The article contains several informal fallacies and appeals to authority. The author makes assumptions about Apple's intentions without concrete evidence, stating 'many rumors have taken flight over the last few weeks regarding potential directions in which the technological giant could move.' This is an example of an appeal to ignorance fallacy. Additionally, the author quotes analysts and industry experts making predictions about Apple's future moves, which is an appeal to authority fallacy if taken as fact without further evidence. The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric when describing Siri as 'forgotten toys' and stating that its voice recognition system is 'resistant to other asks.' This language is not objective and detracts from the credibility of the article.
many rumors have taken flight over the last few weeks regarding potential directions in which the technological giant could move.
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman:
The two companies are in active negotiations to let Apple license Gemini, Google’s set of generative AI models, to power some new features coming to the iPhone software this year.
Ben Thompson writes that he thinks that Google has a better-suited infrastructure compared to that of OpenAI when it comes to being able to manage the avalanche of traffic and data processing that iOS integration would necessitate.
Many of the expectations regarding Apple’s next moves focus on what could be a dramatic revamp of its Siri voice assistant.
If Apple opts to run with ChatGPT or Gemini when it comes to speaking directly to iPhone users and answering their requests, that would be the end of Siri.
Bias

The author expresses a clear bias towards Google and OpenAI in the article, with multiple mentions of their generative AI projects and potential deals with Apple. The author also expresses a negative view towards Siri and its lack of intelligence compared to Google's assistant and Amazon's Alexa. The author also implies that Apple is falling behind in the field of artificial intelligence, which could be seen as a negative bias against Apple.
Analysts seem to be in agreement that Apple’s entry into the generative AI race will not be geared towards directly competing with OpenAI and Google, but rather, that the iPhone manufacturer could break the current tie between the two by choosing one of them to work with its chatbots and other AI services.
Following this week’s announcements about new generative artificial intelligence projects at OpenAI and Google, all eyes in the industry have turned to Apple.
If Apple opts to run with ChatGPT or Gemini when it comes to speaking directly to iPhone users and answering their requests, that would be the end of Siri.
Since Siri’s debut in 2011, one day before Steve Jobs’ death, it has seen few important updates and though it can resolve simple tasks like calling a contact from one’s phonebook, its voice recognition system is still resistant to other asks, like playing a certain song or album. Google’s assistant and Amazon’s Alexa outpaced Siri years ago, and are considered more efficient and intelligent.
