Apple is reportedly in discussions with publishers to license their content for the upcoming Siri AI upgrade, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. The tech giant has approached publishers in recent months to secure access to current news and information for the AI assistant. Apple has proposed a variable compensation model, paying publishers only when their content is used, rather than the industry-standard fixed licensing fee. The report mentions that Apple has considered a budget of around $100 million for these payments. Apple has not yet responded to requests for comment. These negotiations come as Apple aims to significantly enhance Siri, which has been promised to become a more capable AI assistant. The new Siri AI is expected to launch later this year.
