Apple recently announced the launch of iOS 18, the new iPhone operating system that introduces a series of innovative artificial intelligence features and integration with ChatGPT for tasks such as image generation and writing assistance. Among the new features, users can choose to delegate Siri requests directly to ChatGPT, thus creating a more fluid and dynamic interaction with the virtual assistant. However, not everyone welcomed Apple’s news with enthusiasm. Elon Musk, the well-known entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla, SpaceX and the use of Apple devices in its companies. On his social media site
Musk runs xAI, a direct competitor to OpenAI, and this may be one reason for his critical attitude. It is important to underline that the ChatGPT integration in iOS 18 is only active if the user gives explicit consent. In fact, the difference compared to simply downloading the ChatGPT app from the App Store is minimal, except for greater ease of access. Users can enjoy ChatGPT features within iOS with the ChatGPT-4 free plan or purchase a ChatGPT Plus subscription for additional services. Apple also said that in the future it will integrate other third-party AI model providers, such as Google’s Gemini, thus expanding the possibilities offered by the new operating system. The Cupertino company has reiterated its commitment to protecting privacy and security, suggesting that corporate customers will be able to block the use of ChatGPT and Apple Intelligence features.
