AI Will Not Be a Problem for Apple: Perplexity's CEO Has Clear Ideas

Apple's delay in developing advanced AI features, for which the company has made an agreement with Google, would not be a big problem, especially thanks to the ecosystem built over the years, which is ready to grow even in the notebook sector.

A Future Without Risks?

Clarifying this aspect is one of the key figures in the artificial intelligence sector, Aravind Srinivas, CEO of Perplexity, who does not see particular difficulties for Apple in the near future. According to Srinivas:

"The iPhone is not experiencing any negative impact from artificial intelligence. On the contrary, the better artificial intelligence works, the more the iPhone essentially becomes your digital passport."

The growth of AI functionalities and the increasing use of tools that simplify access to AI could represent a positive element for Apple, if only for the fact that the company, with its devices, can serve as a gateway to the world of AI. According to Srinivas, Apple:

"Has the opportunity to take the necessary time to do what it wants since it enjoys advantages as a brand that people truly trust. The ecosystem lock-in is underrated. The advantages of auxiliary hardware devices, the chip advantage, all of this is really underrated at the moment."

Therefore, Apple's future should not be at risk due to the development of new third-party AI features, regardless of how Apple Intelligence evolves and what the actual level of the new version of Siri will be.

It is worth noting that Google itself has confirmed the arrival of a new version of Siri, which will leverage the Gemini models and likely Google Cloud infrastructure, by 2026. This represents a possible turning point for the Cupertino company that wants to accelerate the development of advanced AI features after past delays.
