According to Bloomberge's Mark Gurman, Apple is close to finalizing a deal with OpenAI to provide generative AI features (such as chatbots) for this year's new iOS system. Also, Apple and Google are in ongoing negotiations about integrating the Gemini chatbot, though no agreement has been reached yet.
Insiders state that both parties have been finalizing terms for incorporating ChatGPT functionality into Apple's next-generation iPhone operating system iOS18. Due to the confidential nature of discussions, the source requested anonymity.
