The latest in a string of announcements from OpenAI is the official release of ChatGPT on Apple Intelligence.
With new ChatGPT integration, iPhone users can invoke ChatGPT through Siri, as part of Apple Intelligence’s Writing Tools, and with Camera Control on iPhone 16 which can process visual data.
The Apple and OpenAI partnership was announced last summer’s WWDC which unveiled Apple’s suite of AI tools called Apple Intelligence. Through the partnership, iPhone users can connect with ChatGPT as an extension of specific tasks. Coinciding with this announcement, Apple released the iOS 18.2 update on Wednesday. You can learn more about that from Mashable’s iOS 18 coverage.
