The European Commission is pressuring Google and Apple to open Android and iOS to third-party AI assistants and share search data; Google cites security risks whilst Apple is delaying its new Siri AI in Europe.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Agents.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If you're building an AI assistant, Europe just forced open two of the three platforms that matter—Android and iOS will have to accept rivals. Apple's delayed Siri launch is the tell: the money in assistants is locking users in, and regulators are making that illegal.
