I assume this isn’t a reverse engineering thing, and this is more of a “hey you’re using our service and AI, and we’d really like airdrop because our valley campus is littered with Macs” thing.

No, it is because the EU forced Apple to use an open standard. So Apple contributed to the standard so that they could use it for airdrop. Now that it is open, everyone (in theory) can use it.
