Recent reliable reports suggest that Apple's iOS 18 plans to introduce Google's Gemini platform this fall, offering users a richer and smarter service experience.
This news follows Apple's official announcement last month of a strategic partnership between Apple Intelligence and OpenAI's ChatGPT. The collaboration between Apple Intelligence and ChatGPT has opened a new chapter in the field of artificial intelligence, and now, Apple's partnership with tech giant Google is likely to further expand the application of AI technology.
According to hints from Apple Senior Vice President Craig Federighi after the WWDC keynote speech, along with additional insights from renowned analyst Gurry, the potential collaboration between Apple and Google is not out of the blue. Even if not this fall, Apple may announce a formal partnership with Google at some point in the future.
Further analysis by Gurry suggests that Apple not only views AI technology as a tool to assist in hardware product development but also hopes to turn it into a direct profit-making channel. For this purpose, he predicts that Apple may eventually launch a smart service available only through a subscription model, similar to Apple Intelligence.
This service will provide users with more advanced features, while users will need to pay an additional monthly fee, similar to the charging model of iCloud.
