  • Apple has signed a deal with OpenAI to provide chatbot functionality in iOS 18, according to a trusted journalist.
  • The iPhone maker is still working on a deal with Apple to have Google’s Gemini as an “option.”

We previously heard Apple was talking to Google and OpenAI about providing AI functionality on iOS 18. Now, it sounds like Apple has signed a deal with the ChatGPT maker.

Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman reported in his Power On newsletter that Apple and OpenAI have reached a deal for OpenAI to provide chatbot functionality in iOS 18. He added that this deal will be a “component” of Apple’s WWDC developer event in June.
