ChatGPT is now available on iPhones thanks to the most recent Apple Intelligence update.

The most recent Apple Intelligence update from Apple (AAPL) will finally deliver ChatGPT to the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The program, which is currently available via iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS 15.2, also includes Apple's visual intelligence function for the iPhone 16's Camera Control and image-generating technologies such as Image Playground and Genmoji. Some of the most anticipated AI features for Apple Intelligence are included in the software, which is the second update in what is projected to be a series of AI-related enhancements to Apple's range of goods over the months ahead.

Notification summaries and Writing Tools were among the first Apple Intelligence capabilities that the company unveiled in October. Apple is relying on Apple Intelligence to boost iPhone sales as the rise of smartphones slows down. There isn't much evidence, though, that the update is encouraging people to update their devices sooner rather than later. The iPhone's integration of ChatGPT is a significant milestone in Apple's strategy to integrate potent AI capabilities throughout its lineup of products. The update makes the generative AI chatbot accessible via Writing Tools, Siri, and visual search-based visual intelligence.

According to Apple, user data will not be shared with OpenAI, the company that created ChatGPT, unless users opt to log into their accounts. The data management terms of OpenAI then apply. Apple will request verification that you are serious about using ChatGPT each time you access it.On the other hand, the company's visual intelligence enables customers to use the iPhone's camera to look for actual items. Simply aim your phone towards a restaurant, an item of apparel you wish to purchase, or a document you wish to condense, and visual intelligence will handle the rest. Google Search or ChatGPT are two options for visual intelligence search. ChatGPT allows you to ask specific enquiries about your topic.

Since the iPhone 16 series is the only one with Apple's unique Camera Control button, visual intelligence is sadly limited to those models. Actually, only the iPhone 16 series or the company's iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max handsets offer Apple Intelligence in a broader sense. According to Apple, the reason behind this is that only the iPhone 15 Pros and iPhone 16 have CPUs strong enough to support onboard AI processing. The goal of Apple's Image Playground and Genmoji features is to create humorous, quirky images with natural language, rather than to provide useful search tools.

Given how long it took to deliver its second batch of Apple Intelligence features, the business has not yet disclosed when its next batch will be available for purchase. However, it is expected that beta testing will start in the upcoming weeks.
