Safari users were shaken on Wednesday while Apple (Nasdaq: AAPPL) weighs AI research?
During the Google antitrust trial, Apple Eddy Cue’s head of services said that the company was impressed enough by Perplexity AI and started the talks to integrate it into Safari. The alternative partners in the study include Anthropic, creator of the Claude Chatbot and Openai, reported the Wall Street Journal.
CUE warned that Safari research requests have slipped in April for the first time in two decades, a trend with a significant impact on Apple’s high margin income, historically supported by an annual payment of $ 20 billion estimated at Google for default research placement. This money subscribes engineers, iOS upgrades and a development of new products.
Change to generative AI assistants such as Chatgpt and Claude intensified control of Google’s search domination. During the same attempt, the CEO of Alphabet, Sundar Pichai, said that he was still planning an agreement to bring the gemini ai from Google to Iphones in the middle of the year.
With Apple exploring AI’s search options, the Google pact? Longtime safari can be ready for a dramatic rewriting.
