Google search monopoly trail on Wednesday. When asked about this rumoured deal, Pichai labelled it as “Correct” and shared details about his meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook.“He [Cook] was trying to understand our plans for how we're evolving AI technologies, our roadmap,” Pichai said during the hearing, adding that both CEOs also discussed plans of “Gemini app distribution as well.”The Alphabet CEO noted that Google hopes to strike a deal with Apple to bring Gemini integration to the iPhone by the middle of this year, and the rollout could begin by the end of 2025.
