Apple in Talks with Google to License Gemini AI Tools for Future iPhone Features

Apple is in talks with Google to license Gemini, Google's suite of generative AI tools, to power new features coming to the iPhone later this year. Gemini includes tools like chatbots and coding assistants that use AI, and Apple wants to integrate some of these tools into future iOS releases. The two companies are in "active negotiations" over licensing terms for Gemini. If licensed, Gemini could power new iPhone features unveiled at Apple's annual WWDC conference in June. Licensing Gemini would give Apple access to advanced AI without building similar capabilities from scratch.
