European Technology Commissioner Henna ‌Virkkunen had a "constructive" talk ‌with Apple's Chief Executive Tim Cook ​during a video call held on Monday, said a Commission spokesperson. They spoke ‌about "topics of ⁠common interest" on which work continues, the ⁠spokesperson added on Wednesday. The iPhone maker has said ​its Siri ​AI would ​not be ‌available initially in the EU on iPhones or iPads and faulted the European Commission for refusing to engage ‌constructively with ​them to ensure ​privacy ​and security on ‌their devices, while the ​Commission ​blamed Apple, saying the company had been unable to ​develop "interoperability" ‌to meet EU standards.
