$Apple (AAPL.US)$ has reportedly closed in on a deal with ChatGPT-parent OpenAI to incorporate the startup's technology into iPhones, as part of a broader strategy to introduce artificial intelligence features to its devices.
What Happened: Apple is finalizing an agreement with $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$-backed OpenAI to use ChatGPT features in iOS 18, the upcoming iPhone operating system, reported Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter.
Apple is also engaged in discussions with $Alphabet-A (GOOGL.US)$'s Google to potentially license Gemini.
While no agreement has been reached yet, the negotiations are still ongoing.
The potential deal with Sam Altman-led company would allow Apple to offer a popular chatbot as part of a series of new AI features, which the company plans to unveil at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference in June.
Last year, Apple CEO Tim Cook admitted to personally using OpenAI's ChatGPT. However, he also noted that there were "a number of issues that need to be sorted."
Why It Matters: Cook has been vocal about the company's AI efforts, expressing confidence in its AI prospects despite concerns from investors. He also revealed that Apple has invested $100 billion in research and development over the past five years, as part of its plan to unveil new AI features at WWDC next month.
Apple's push into the AI space also includes the development of its own AI chips for data centers, a move that could potentially disrupt the market. The project, codenamed ACDC, is an extension of Apple's existing in-house chip efforts for its devices.

$蘋果 (AAPL.US)$ 據報道,已與ChatGPT母公司OpenAI達成協議,將這家初創公司的技術整合到iPhone中,這是爲其設備引入人工智能功能的更廣泛戰略的一部分。
發生了什麼:蘋果正在與之敲定協議 $微軟 (MSFT.US)$彭博社援引知情人士的話報道,支持OpenAI在即將推出的iPhone操作系統iOS 18中使用ChatGPT功能。
蘋果也在與之進行討論 $谷歌-A (GOOGL.US)$谷歌有可能向雙子座授予許可。
儘管尚未達成協議,但談判仍在進行中。
與山姆·奧特曼領導的公司達成的潛在協議將允許蘋果提供一款受歡迎的聊天機器人,作爲一系列新的人工智能功能的一部分,該公司計劃在6月的年度全球開發者大會上公佈這些功能。
去年,蘋果首席執行官蒂姆·庫克承認親自使用了OpenAI的ChatGPT。但是,他還指出,“有許多問題需要解決”。
爲何重要:儘管投資者感到擔憂,庫克一直對該公司的人工智能努力直言不諱,但仍對其 AI 前景表示信心。他還透露,蘋果在過去五年中投資了1000億美元用於研發,這是其計劃在下個月的WWDC上推出新的AI功能的一部分。
蘋果進軍人工智能領域還包括開發自己的用於數據中心的人工智能芯片,此舉可能會擾亂市場。該項目代號爲ACDC,是蘋果現有內部設備芯片開發的延伸。
