Apple is reportedly intensifying discussions with OpenAI to incorporate generative AI capabilities into the iPhone, even amidst ongoing talks with Google. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple has reignited conversations with OpenAI regarding the utilization of its technology for upcoming iPhone features later this year.
Previously, discussions between the two entities had tapered off earlier this year, although discussions with Google concerning the licensing of Gemini, Google’s chatbot, for iPhone integration, persisted. Gurman suggests that the outcome of these discussions remains uncertain, as Apple simultaneously finalizes agreements with both OpenAI and Google.
Anticipated enhancements in iOS 18 are expected to introduce a range of AI-driven functionalities as key additions to the iPhone's operating system. Furthermore, numerous reports suggest that whichever company Apple collaborates with will endeavor to provide a chatbot-style interface.
In addition to OpenAI, discussions have also involved Anthropic, the developers behind the Claude 3 chatbot, reflecting the broader scope of Apple's exploration into AI integration, as highlighted by Gurman.
Amidst this, speculation arises as to whether the iPhone 16 will debut new generative AI features leveraging the A18 chip, as Apple increasingly focuses on hardware optimization to facilitate on-device AI processing.
