Apple rejected Meta's proposal to integrate its AI chatbot into the iPhone due to concerns about Meta's privacy policies. Instead, Apple opted to focus on leveraging other AI technologies like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Alphabet Inc.'s Gemini, while prioritizing user privacy, technological advancement, and seamless user experiences.
Apple Intelligence will initially be available in US English. Support for additional languages and regions will roll out gradually over time, with the exact timeline and order of languages not yet specified. The expansion will depend on extensive training and the availability of massive amounts of data for each supported language3.
Apple partnered with OpenAI for iOS 18 instead of Meta, integrating ChatGPT into Siri and Apple Intelligence. This decision came after Apple reportedly rejected a partnership with Meta due to disagreements over privacy policies.
