Apple and OpenAI's collaboration yields mutual benefits? Regarding the collaboration between Apple and OpenAI, some netizens have expressed that this will be a win-win cooperation. First, for Apple, it seems that Apple does not need to pay OpenAI for using GPT-related fees (currently, both parties have not clearly explained this), and integrating ChatGPT, a top-notch AI chatbot, into Apple's Apple Intelligence lineup will help further consolidate Apple's dominant position in the mobile and computer fields, and promote consumers to accelerate product replacement, boosting sales. As for OpenAI, the integration of its products into the products of Apple, a technological giant, will undoubtedly bring more users and exposure, which will bring long-term and huge commercial value to OpenAI. However, OpenAI still needs users' subscription fees to maintain its huge expenses. The future changes in the cooperation between the two parties are still to be observed.
