CUPERTINO (dpa-AFX) - As Apple (AAPL) is gearing up for the announcement of
iOS 18 at Worldwide Developers Conference on June 10, several reports suggest
that the tech giant has renewed talks with the Microsoft-backed (MSFT) OpenAI to
pump AI features in its latest device.

According to Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, Apple has reopened discussions about how
OpenAI's AI tools such as ChatGPT and Dall-E could enhance the next version of
iOS, citing people familiar with the matter.

Apple is also apparently in talks with Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOG) Google regarding
introducing the latter's AI model Gemini into iPhone devices.

In February, Apple CEO Tim Cook acknowledged the potential of artificial
intelligence which has the power to transform the iPhone user experience.

'Every Mac that is powered by Apple silicon is an extraordinarily capable AI
machine. In fact, there's no better computer for AI on the market today,' Cook
claimed during the annual shareholder meeting.

However, Cook noted that OpenAI's tools have 'a number of issues that need to be
sorted.' He further assured that AI features will be added to the operating
system only on a 'very thoughtful basis.'
