OpenAI won WWDC 2025

If you could not pay close attention to the main word from the Apple WWDC 2025, it was easy to miss one of the most prominent stories of this event. For a conference where he aims to show himself as a creator, Apple seemed this year as if he was outside new ideas. Whether it digs old design concepts or Sherlock more than third -party applications, we have seen a company that relies on the work of others. But anywhere this dependence was more clear than the apple that now has with Openai.

For many new Apple Intelligence features announced by the company on Monday, I was quick to note that users can resort to Openai’s models, instead of its internal systems, to carry out a task. Do not like pictures of your friends’ photo stadium born? Chatgpt can help. What about the analysis provided by visual intelligence? If the Apple model does not do it for you, Chatgpt can also help there.

These are just two examples. There are others. Openai models are also available through the application of updated shortcuts, and perhaps the most prominent, in the new version of the Apple Xcode Development Suite collection. In fact, according to the Cherlynn Low Administrative Editor, who was on the ground in Cuperno, the news that Chatgpt will be released directly in Xcode got one of the highest hooks for the presentation.

It seemed to be a recognition by Apple that their artificial intelligence models, and even those that will provide them to developers through a new framework, do not reach irony. Apple’s dependence on Openai is not new. ChatGPT was an intelligent part of Apple’s intelligence from the beginning, but what is surprising is the depth of dependence.

Before Monday, we all knew that the company was behind the artificial intelligence race. At WWDC 2025, Apple has provided a few disruptions that you will bring any time soon. For example, he was not saying about Siri the most specialized that was presented at the last year’s conference.

“As we participated, we continue our work to provide the features that make Siri more personal,” said Craig Fedrigi, the first vice president of software engineering in the company. “This work needs more time to reach our high -quality tape, and we look forward to sharing more about it next year.”

The time frame of “next year” indicates that the new Siri may not arrive before the beginning of 2026 as soon as possible. From six months to a year to forever in the world of technology, especially when Apple competitors move so quickly.

As if the numbering of things, Openai announced on Saturday that it had begun to put up an update to the advanced VOICE that gives Chatgpt more accurate intonation, realistic rhythm and expression. These are all promotions that Siri can use.

Of course, the paradise that Apple should choose to resort to Openai to help artificial intelligence race definitely not waste any person in any of the company.

In May, Openai announced that it was buying the start of the IO IVE (for $ 6.5 billion) to support its ambition to build the AI. In an interview with New York Times About the acquisition, the CEO of Openai Sam Altman explicitly mentioned the former IVE employer, but he was clearly thinking about Apple and iPhone throughout the conversation. He said at some point: “We were waiting for the next big thing for 20 years.” “We want to bring people something that exceeds the old products that we use for a long time.”

The fact that the artificial intelligence devices we have seen so far, including the AI ​​and R1 pin, were not successful, do not mean that Apple is safe from the turmoil. For one of them, Openai and Jony Ive (even if you include MOSS like MacBook Pro with a terrible butterfly keyboard) goes beyond the game of humans and rabbits. Among the people who are now working in Openai as part of the IO Evans Hankey deal, who was the head of the Apple devices design for three years after IVE’s departure from the company.

You can present the argument that the Apple has found itself in similar situations before and out of the right. For years, the company relied on Google to provide access to the search engine for its users (and maps before that), but this looks different from me. What happens in the artificial intelligence industry does not play with the usual strengths of the company. Technology moves faster than the Apple annual release schedule, as new more powerful models are announced almost every week. It is not a space that the company can rely on on its usual strategy, waiting for others to provide wrinkles before they dive into themselves.

It is too early to know if Apple’s partnership with Openai will eventually hurt the technology giant, but it is safe to say that Openai is not satisfied with being just a supporter. Apple is still one of the richest companies in the world, as it represents billions of dollars at hand – but dependence on Openai is a rare sign of weakness in a crucial part of the technology industry.
