Google AI may power next Siri

Good morning, AI enthusiasts. Apple is exploring a major AI upgrade for Siri, and Google’s Gemini might be the engine under the hood.

PLUS: How to Create Studio-Quality Ads with JSON Prompting

Apple is in early discussions with Google to integrate its Gemini AI into a redesigned Siri, aiming for a smarter, more capable voice assistant. The company has not yet decided whether to stick with in-house models or partner externally.

→ Gemini could help Siri execute multi-step requests and leverage personal context

→ Previous discussions included Anthropic and OpenAI as potential Siri partners

→ Decision on which model or partner to use is still “several weeks away”

Why is important: A Gemini-powered Siri could finally bring Apple up to speed with competitors, offering richer AI interactions and better integration across iOS devices. How Apple executes this could redefine the standard for voice assistants in smartphones.

Meta is partnering with Midjourney to license its “aesthetic technology” for use in Meta’s AI models and products, with research teams from both companies working closely on new tools.

→ Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp now testing built-in AI image creation tools

→ Partnership signals Meta’s push to catch up with OpenAI and Google in generative AI

→ Midjourney remains independent, with no investors, despite collaboration

Why is important: This partnership ties directly into Meta’s broader push for “superintelligence” and AI-driven media. With Midjourney powering Meta’s apps, AI-generated photos and videos could soon be as common in your feed as regular posts.

JSON prompting is a new technique that allows you to control every detail of your AI-generated video inside a single structured prompt. You can define camera angles, lighting, transitions, motion, and even sound design, giving you studio-level precision without needing professional editing tools.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use JSON prompting to create a studio-quality commercial, step by step, with the exact prompt I use.

Start by clarifying the idea for your ad. What product are you showcasing? What feeling do you want to create? Is it cinematic, commercial, or UGC-style?

For this tutorial, we’ll imagine Apple ad.

Concept: “Cinematic Apple ad: Logo glows, dissolves into particles, forming Apple Watch Ultra in a minimal futuristic space with final hero shot.”

Having a clear narrative will make it easier to structure your JSON prompt later.

Open ChatGPT and ask it to write a JSON prompt based on your concept.

For this example, type:

“Write JSON prompt for cinematic Apple-style ad: Apple logo glows in darkness, dissolves into particles forming the Apple Watch Ultra floating above a sleek table. Screen ripples on with subtle UI, titanium body reflects light, environment reveals a vast minimal Apple space. Camera pulls back to final hero shot with logo beside watch, set to elegant futuristic ambient music.”

ChatGPT will return a structured block of code with detailed instructions for camera movements, scene transitions, lighting setups, and sound cues. Each part of the sequence is defined in a way that you can adjust.

With your JSON prompt ready, head over to Flow and start a new project. Select “Veo 3” as your video model. Paste the full JSON block into the input field and hit enter.

Flow will process the structure line by line and render a cinematic grade video that matches your instructions. Within minutes, you’ll see your concept translated into a polished ad that feels planned and produced.

Once the video is ready, watch it carefully. Pay attention to pacing, lighting, and camera work.

If anything feels off, return to ChatGPT and adjust the JSON prompt. Even a small change, asking for brighter daylight, smoother transitions, or a different soundtrack, can transform the final result.

When you’re happy with what you see, export the video and it’s ready to use in your campaign.
