It’s the Friday before WWDC during which Apple is going to announce an “improved” Siri based on Google models (a locked partnership, for now). Maybe it’s a coincidence, but this might be Google releasing models that will be showcased next week by Apple?

No knowledge, just speculation.



As an amateur app dev using on device AI: If they replace Apple Foundation model with Gemma 4 I would be so happy.


I’m curious like what performance if we met you would expect and why?


Maybe Siri will become capable of doing what I can do on my Mac with llamafile and a few minutes of work...


I'm fully expecting an updated foundation model of some kind, but I would bet money they don't utter the words "Google", "Gemini", or "Gemma" even once.
