Apple is integrating ChatGPT into experiences within iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, allowing users to access ChatGPT’s capabilities—including image and document understanding—without needing to jump between tools, according to a press release.
Siri can also tap into ChatGPT’s intelligence when helpful. Apple users are asked before any questions are sent to ChatGPT, along with any documents or photos, and Siri then presents the answer directly.
Additionally, ChatGPT will be available in Apple’s systemwide Writing Tools, to help users generate content for anything they are writing about. Users can also tap into ChatGPT image tools to generate images in a wide variety of styles to complement what they are writing.
Privacy protections are built in when accessing ChatGPT within Siri and Writing Tools—requests are not stored by OpenAI, and users’ IP addresses are obscured. Users can also choose to connect their ChatGPT account, which means their data preferences will apply under ChatGPT’s policies.
The ChatGPT integration, powered by GPT-4o, will come to iOS, iPadOS, and macOS later this year. Users can access it for free without creating an account, and ChatGPT subscribers can connect their accounts and access paid features right from these experiences.
„We’re excited to partner with Apple to bring ChatGPT to their users in a new way. Apple shares our commitment to safety and innovation, and this partnership aligns with OpenAI’s mission to make advanced AI accessible to everyone. Together with Apple, we’re making it easier for people to benefit from what AI can offer.” – said Sam Altman – CEO of OpenAI.
According to Linas Beliunas, Country Manager, Europe, and General Manager, Flutterwave Lithuania, „99% of Apple Intelligence is powered by Apple’s own proprietary foundational models (FMs). They built a host of their own FMS and used licensed content to train and fine-tune those models. On top of that, Apple is using Apple Silicon in its own data centers – not NVIDIA chips – to power Apple Intelligence . The best part? Private cloud compute allows Apple to draw on larger server-based models while protecting your privacy. Your data is never stored or sent to Apple.„
Apple Intelligence will empower billions of people to experience AI for the first time, right on their devices, with a privacy-first mindset.
„Looking at the big picture, one really important thing is becoming very clear now – Apple is basically layering AI on top of the entire OS that will soon make your iPhone the closest thing to an AI agent anyone has done to date. And that’s a potential game changer, and doesn’t even come close to the AI parade & gimmicks that Microsoft or Google have been focusing on as of late.” – added Linas Beliunas.
