At the WWDC 2024 keynote, Apple announced 'Apple Intelligence,' a personal AI that runs on Apple devices such as iPhones and Macs. In addition, Apple announced that it will integrate ChatGPT into Apple OSes such as 'iOS 18,' 'iPadOS 18,' and 'macOS Sequoia,' making ChatGPT's content generation and summarization functions available.

According to Apple, ChatGPT is integrated throughout the system, allowing users to write documents and generate images using ChatGPT, and it is also integrated into Siri, which will use ChatGPT's results to inform Siri's responses.
Apple has partnered with OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, to integrate ChatGPT into its system, but has not disclosed the specific terms of the contract with OpenAI. According to information obtained by Gurman from a related party, Apple has not paid OpenAI any money. Apple also believes that the fact that 'OpenAI's brand and technology will be used on hundreds of millions of devices that Apple sells' is of greater value than any monetary payment.
If you check the sample image of 'Displaying the ChatGPT generation result as a Siri response' released by Apple, you can see that the 'ChatGPT' logo is placed at the bottom of Siri's response. In other words, by incorporating the function 'Every time a user uses the ChatGPT function, the ChatGPT logo is displayed.' Apple is providing the effect of increasing brand value for OpenAI.
ChatGPT-related features on Apple devices are available for free, but users are also given the option to access ChatGPT's paid features from their Apple devices if they subscribe to a paid ChatGPT plan. Gurman points out that 'OpenAI can make money by attracting Apple device users to paid plans.' In addition, Apple can earn a commission if users subscribe to a paid plan via the ChatGPT app.
In addition, at the time of writing, Apple has not received any money from OpenAI, but according to a person familiar with the matter, Apple is aiming to establish a revenue-sharing system in the future in which 'if an AI company earns revenue from the AI responses on an Apple device, Apple will receive a portion of the revenue as a share.'
In addition, at an event held after the WWDC2024 keynote speech, Apple executive Craig Federighi said, 'In the future, we would like to integrate various AI models, such as Google's Gemini, into Apple products,' showing a positive attitude toward adopting AI other than ChatGPT.
