Apple plans to make iOS 27 a Choose Your Own Adventure of AI models | TechCrunch
"Apple plans to give users their pick of a number of third-party large language models that will be capable of powering various functions within the iPhone's operating system."
"The new capability will also be available for iPadOS 27 and macOS 27, adding that models from Google and Anthropic are being tested now."
"Apple is still bringing in a generous amount of AI-based revenue and its plan is less about spending money building out AI infrastructure and services than it is about turning its already existing hardware into an AI-centric experience for users."
iOS 27 will introduce a feature called 'Extensions' that enables iPhone users to select from multiple third-party large language models for various functions. This capability will also be available on iPadOS 27 and macOS 27. Users can access generative AI features through applications like Siri and Writing Tools. Apple is testing models from Google and Anthropic, while the status of ChatGPT remains uncertain. Despite perceptions of being behind in AI, Apple aims to enhance user experience by leveraging existing hardware for AI functionalities.
