Apple has secured full access to Google's Gemini models within its data centers and is using knowledge distillation to generate training data for smaller, on-device AI models. The approach allows Apple to create lightweight versions that replicate Gemini's reasoning patterns while running directly on Apple devices, requiring significantly less processing power.

Apple has asked Google to set up servers specifically for hosting a new Gemini-powered version of Siri that meets Apple's privacy requirements, according to The Information. This represents a deeper infrastructure partnership beyond the January announcement that Google's Gemini models would power upgraded Siri features.
