Meta AI in Apple CarPlay: ChatGPT Joins Before Siri AI

Apple CarPlay is now opening up to more AI assistants, with Meta AI beginning to appear. This joins other third-party services like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Grok. This change comes as Apple officially supports voice-based conversational apps in CarPlay. These AI apps offer voice-first experiences directly through the system. Meta AI access is currently rolling out and is not yet available to every account. What's interesting is that these third-party AI assistants are establishing themselves in CarPlay before Apple's new Siri AI arrives with the wider iOS 27 rollout. This means drivers are getting access to multiple AI assistants directly from the CarPlay interface. The bottom line is that drivers will have more choices for voice-based AI conversations while on the road.
