> I remember when Microsoft got sued for including a web browser in Windows. Oh how anti-trust has fallen.

The case was more complicated than you’re suggesting, and a lot less relevant.

Which of these companies are you suggesting has the monopoly position in the phone market? Apple? Google?

Which other OS-level AI voice assistants are being prevented from competing in this case? This isn’t like a web browser download where the marginal cost is negligible download bandwidth. Voice assistants are expensive to develop and run. They’re investments made in the product being sold.

Most importantly: What outcome do you even want? That the government forbid companies from developing AI integration into their own platforms because it might make people more loyal to those platforms?
