GM. Two historically competitive tech giants – Apple and Google – are in talks about a potential partnership. If it goes through, Google’s Gemini AI tech could replace Siri.

This is the latest update in a series of news headlines hinting at Apple’s willingness (or lack thereof) to open its historically gated doors to external ecosystem partners.

The EU passed its Digital Markets Act last week, prompting tech providers to reconsider their relationship with customers.

The question: is Apple more open to partnerships because they want to, or because they're being forced to? Either way, users will ultimately benefit from a more open ecosystem.
