Apple Unveils Enhanced Siri with ChatGPT Integration

Apple Inc. has introduced a significant upgrade to its software ecosystem, integrating OpenAI's ChatGPT into Siri, the digital assistant, as part of its new Apple Intelligence initiative. This enhancement is available in the latest versions of iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS Sequoia 15.2.

With this update, Siri can now leverage ChatGPT's capabilities to handle complex queries, but only with the user's explicit permission. This feature allows users to benefit from ChatGPT's expertise without needing an OpenAI account, streamlining the user experience across Apple's platforms.

Privacy and Efficiency

In its announcement, Apple emphasized the focus on privacy and efficiency with Apple Intelligence, stating, "This easy-to-use personal intelligence system delivers helpful and relevant intelligence while taking an extraordinary step forward for privacy in AI." The integration of ChatGPT into both Siri and Writing Tools aims to make tasks faster and more seamless for users.
