Apple has been in talks to integrate Meta’s artificial intelligence (AI) into its system, which it announced earlier this month. Apple Intelligence was introduced for the global market with integration with OpenAI’s ChatGPT, but the chatbot is banned in some countries such as China.
It looks like Apple continues to look for partners to implement new AI features into its applications and even operating systems. According to Wall StreetJournalThe company has discussed a partnership with Meta, which has not yet been confirmed.
It is also worth remembering that Apple made a partnership agreement with Google for the same purpose. WSJ also stated that Maça contacted artificial intelligence startup Anthropic. Reuters cited Pexplexity as a possible partner. However, it seems that the company could not reach an agreement with any of these companies.
The reason for this may be related to the payment model implemented by the iPhone manufacturer. OpenAI did not receive a fixed amount for the ChatGPT Siri integration contract.
Essentially, the deal generates profits based on distribution of the brand to Apple’s massive user base. In addition, the owner of the AI tool has the opportunity to offer paid subscriptions to its service.
Elon Musk criticizes Apple’s alliance with OpenAI
Recently, Elon Musk criticized Apple’s partnership with OpenAi. The billionaire threatened to ban Apple devices from his companies if the company integrated ChatGPT at the operating system level.
From the administrator’s perspective, this practice represents a serious security breach. Even visitors will not be able to use iPhones in the facility.
One of the most important topics highlighted by Apple Intelligence during WWDC 2024 was security and privacy. The platform will be processed on servers equipped with proprietary Apple hardware, even using OpenAI technology. However, Apple did not provide a clear explanation on how to do this.
