Apple’s Apple Intelligence feature will incorporate OpenAI’s ChatGPT directly into Siri on iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. No cash will exchange hands between Apple and OpenAI for this partnership, as Apple sees value in promoting OpenAI’s technology to its users.

OpenAI’s ChatGPT integration with Apple could strain OpenAI’s budget due to increased demand from Apple users. However, OpenAI may benefit from Apple users subscribing to ChatGPT Plus for $20 per month, with Apple possibly receiving a commission for sign-ups via their devices.

Apple plans to boost AI revenue by sharing proceeds with partners like Google’s Gemini chatbot. Apple is also exploring partnerships with Chinese providers like Baidu and Alibaba to expand Apple Intelligence to more languages besides U.S. English in the future.

The move to monetize chatbot results on Apple’s operating systems may divert revenue from Google’s search deal, as more users turn to AI for answers. Apple is negotiating with Chinese providers for chatbot capabilities, aiming to support more languages next year.
