Elon Musk said he is open to working with Apple to improve Siri, stating that the current voice assistant needs a major overhaul to stay competitive in the rapidly advancing AI market. Musk described the idea as a potential collaboration focused on building a more capable, context-aware AI assistant. His comments follow growing industry pressure on legacy voice interfaces to catch up with conversational AI systems.
The suggestion comes at a time when both companies are accelerating their AI roadmaps. Apple is preparing deeper on-device generative AI features, while Musk’s companies are pushing new models through xAI. Market analysts note that Apple has faced criticism for lagging behind competitors in voice assistant performance and intelligence.
A partnership between Tesla’s CEO and Apple would be unprecedented, and no formal talks have been announced. Still, Musk’s remarks highlight rising expectations for Apple to modernize Siri as AI plays a larger role in consumer devices.
