Apple is working to add support for third-party chatbot voice-control apps from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others in CarPlay, Bloomberg reports. The change would let drivers interact directly with ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini without routing through an iPhone, though Apple will not permit replacing the Siri button or wake word; developers can auto-start voice mode. Bloomberg says rollout could arrive within the coming months.

Key Points

  • 1Adds support for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google chatbots in CarPlay voice-control apps
  • 2Limits replacement of Siri button and wake word, preserving Apple control over voice activation
  • 3Allows developers to auto-start voice mode, enabling quicker third-party chatbot interactions in cars

Scoring Rationale

Timely Bloomberg scoop signals significant platform change, but lacks official confirmation and full technical details.
