Report: Apple Does About-Face on Siri Chatbot — and It Might Compete Directly with ChatGPT and Google

Apple is reportedly pivoting to launch a new AI‑powered Siri chatbot, dubbed Project Campos, in the upcoming iOS 27 release.

The shift raises questions about privacy, as reliance on external AI models could compromise Apple’s private compute promises.
