Apple Inches Closer to a Deal with OpenAI to Bring ChatGPT Technology to iPhone
To bring cutting-edge artificial intelligence capabilities to its flagship product, Apple is said to be finalizing a deal with OpenAI to integrate the ChatGPT technology into the upcoming iOS 18 for iPhones. According to Bloomberg, multiple sources report that after months of negotiations, the two tech giants are putting the finishing touches on a partnership that would be an important moment for consumer AI. However, OpenAI may not be Apple's only AI ally. The company has also reportedly been in talks with Google over licensing the Gemini chatbot, though no known agreement has been reached yet. The rare team-up between the fiercely competitive firms underscores the intense focus on AI integration across the industry.
Apple's strategic moves are a clear indication of its recognition of the transformative potential of advanced AI capabilities for the iPhone experience. The integration of OpenAI's language model could empower Siri to understand and respond to complex voice queries with deep contextual awareness. This could revolutionize the way Apple's customers interact with devices, offering hope for a more intuitive and advanced iPhone experience. Potential Gemini integration opens up another realm of possibilities around Google's image and multimodal AI capabilities. Future iPhones may be able to analyze and describe visual scenes, annotate images, generate custom imagery from natural language prompts, and even synthesize audio using AI vocals - all within a conversational interface. As the AI arms race intensifies, Apple wants to position itself at the forefront through these partnerships.

Hype and the stock price presumably?
cutting out a slice in the future will be harder than offering a rebranded piece of pie from the start.
So, how do I buy ChatGPT stock? cause they are king, not Nvidia. Apple and Microsoft kneeling before them. lmao
Personally, I think Anthropic is the best AI around, surprised Apple didn't approach them.
if ChatGPT had a stock price/openly sold, they would be higher rated/priced than Nvidia imo.
The main way to invest in these pre-IPO companies is venture capital and sometimes angel investing at the earliest stages. You can probably read up on this at Investopedia.
AI is still very much in its infancy, not just in its technology but also its presence as publicly traded companies. If you really want to invest in AI today by buying a publicly traded symbol, your best choice for the moment is probably NVDA. They are providing the majority of the tools -- AI accelerator hardware components and Omniverse software ecosystem -- that AI companies are using right now.
But back to the original topic, Apple likely wants deeper OpenAI integration rather than just a standalone ChatGPT app.
as I go on to state, "if ChatGPT had a stock price/openly sold, they would be higher priced than Nvidia imo"
I did not feel the need to clarify this with Solaris, but if people are going to keep bringing it up, I thought I'd point that out. things don't translate well in text, so I should have been more clear. :toast:
Yes, siri is not that great, but I have a genuine question: Who is actually basing their phone purchasing decisions around the virtual assistant? And who would use it for more than setting a timer when you cannot touch your phone? Genuinely curious here, I struggle to see the utility of virtual assistants beyond being a selling point that won't ever make a difference in how you use your phone.
