Apple and OpenAI

 In order to catch up, Apple decided to reopen talks again with OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, in order to use its technology to power some of the artificial intelligence features that will be introduced in iOS 18. According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, Apple’s focus is on providing AI features that can help users deal with... With daily tasks easier and faster.

Gorman points out that although the iPhone maker has built its own large language models to help power some of iOS 18's artificial intelligence features, the company is currently interested in creating a GBT-style chatbot with the help of OpenAI. It is unclear whether this chatbot will replace Siri or will be a new virtual assistant.


Negotiations with Google

Meanwhile, Apple is still in negotiations with Google for use Gemini On iOS. Apparently, Apple negotiated with both companies in order to find the best deal in terms of costs. Apple is also rumored to be negotiating with Baidu to use its technology in China; Because Google services are blocked there.

It should be noted that Apple had released some large open source language models a short time ago, which were designed to work within iPhone devices only and not in the cloud. Doing so completes tasks faster and maintains users' privacy. The downside of running AI tasks on the device is that the user does not have access to more powerful servers that can handle more complex AI algorithms. Since large language models like ChatGPT need to rely on the cloud to run on smartphones, Gorman believes Apple may allow some cloud-based AI features on iOS 18 and run either via ChatGPT or Google Gemini.

Finally, Apple may still be lagging behind in the field of artificial intelligence, but it plans to come back strongly. Therefore, it has recently acquired some startups focused on artificial intelligence to enhance its development efforts in this field. This is in addition to the 32 startups in the field of artificial intelligence that it acquired in 2023. It even transferred employees from its electric car project and the project to build microLED screens for its smart watch to work on its own artificial intelligence initiatives, so that it can compete with Samsung, Google, and Microsoft.

In your opinion, are these talks intended to give the user the ability to choose the artificial intelligence engine, or may the talks be in order to train Apple's artificial intelligence engine? In any case, we know in a few weeks and from the Apple conference. Tell us your opinion in the comments
