The betas of the next OS's include a Siri AI chatbot, and the AI features are built into various parts of the OS. A user has no idea what model is powering any of it - Apple controls the UX.

I’ll be curious to see if they make the models accessible to Shortcuts, like they do with the current models.

I'm aware. How is this relevant to the posted article?

The article is about (from the eyes of a user) white-labeled usage of Claude models on Apple devices, this subthread is about white-labeled usage of LLMs on Apple devices, how is it not relevant?

Because that's not what the article is about; this is about a unified API for the _app developers_ to access different kind of models.

That API has no user-facing components, and has no influence over UX of what the end-users are interacting with.

The users won't know if you used Foundation Models API or integrated with OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini SDK directly.

That's the point! That's the whole "white-labeling" part, and what the commentator earlier is talking about. You're very close in understanding the context here!

I’m sorry, so your position now is that “being completely invisible to the users” is “controlling the UX”?

[embedding-shape]

I think you're taking the written words a bit too literally here. Read it with a more lax filter and less literal word-meaning, and I think the original comment will become a bit clearer.

I can't reply to your child comment for whatever reason, but Siri is part of the Apple Foundation Models framework. The idea is that no matter what backend the developer uses, the end user will always say "Hey Siri." This is analogous to controlling the UX. Siri is independent of whichever model the app developer uses.

It's Apple, so it's some revolutionary big brained play, and not just yet another llm sdk.
