Apple will bring GPT-5 to Apple Intelligence in iOS, iPad OS and macOS 26
Given ChatGPT's integration with Apple Intelligence , you might be wondering when the latest model will arrive on the devices that support it. The answer is sooner rather than later, according to 9To5Mac . Apple told the publication in a statement that Apple Intelligence will leverage GPT-5 in iOS 26 , iPadOS 26 and macOS Tahoe 26. Those software updates are set to arrive in their final form, as they traditionally do, at the tail end of the summer, so you won't have to wait long.
Currently, ChatGPT is an optional add-on to Apple's own AI model. It can be accessed by Siri when you're making a request that Apple Intelligence on its own might not be able to handle, with Apple using the example of questions about photos and documents. ChatGPT also integrates with Camera Control in your iPhone's Camera app to learn more about your environment, and if you connect your ChatGPT account you can save your requests in your personal history.
ChatGPT has to be activated as an extension to Apple Intelligence in settings, and if you turn it off you won't have to worry about Siri turning to an external model if you're concerned about it doing so. OpenAI says GPT-5 is its safest model to date, thanks in part to a new feature called Safe Completions, which means it will attempt to give the most helpful answer it can within safety parameters imposed by its maker.
GPT-5 is free for everyone, but OpenAI offers tiered paid plans for heavier users, from its $20 per month ChatGPT Plus subscription, right up to the $200 per month Pro plan that offers unlimited use. If you have one of these plans, you can log in through Apple Intelligence and gain all the same benefits.
Engadget has reached out to Apple for comment as we'll update this article if we get a response.

How Tim Cook convinced Trump to drop made-in-USA iPhone — for now
President Donald Trump has made clear that he wants Apple to make iPhones in the U.S. Apple CEO Tim Cook is doing what he can to appease the commander in chief, without making that ultimate concession. Cook on Wednesday appeared at the White House with Trump to announce plans to spend about $600 billion over four years in the U.S. Apple didn't announce the made-in-USA iPhone that Trump wants, but Cook got to tout Apple's position on U.S. production. Some of Apple's most valuable parts, such as its glass and facial recognition sensor, are made by U.S. companies that Apple has worked with for years. Final assembly is only a small, though very critical, part of iPhone production. 'The final assembly that you focus on, that will be elsewhere for a while,' Cook said Wednesday in the Oval Office. Trump appeared happy enough, for now. 'He makes many of the components here, and we've been talking about it,' Trump said. 'The whole thing is set up in other places, and it's been there for a long time in terms of cost and all, but I think we may incentivize him enough that one day he'll be bringing that back.' Experts said Cook's announcement seemed designed to get Apple out of Trump's crosshairs with respect to tariffs. Trump announced during the public meeting that the administration planned to place a tariff on chips that would double their price, but Apple — which relies on hundreds of different chips for its devices — would be exempt. 'CEOs are realizing that they do have to do something, and what they've discovered is that if they give the president something to brag about without destroying their company, that the problem might go away for a certain amount of time,' said Peter Cohan, professor of strategy and entrepreneurship at Babson College who has written case studies on Apple. The gambit worked. Apple stock rose 5% on Wednesday and another 3% on Thursday. 'What Tim Cook demonstrated in the first administration was a real savvy navigation of the treacherous waters,' said Nancy Tengler, CEO of Laffer Tengler Investments, which holds a position in Apple. 'I thought this announcement was super-important symbolically, because the president is looking for headlines.' What Apple announced The centerpiece of Apple's announcement was the so-called American Manufacturing Program, which Apple said was designed to incentivize other companies to make parts for computers in the U.S. By Apple committing to purchase parts and expand its relationship with U.S. suppliers, it could give those companies the skills and capacity to expand their business. And it lets Apple take some credit for supporting the 450,000 total jobs at its suppliers. A closer look at the members of the program shows that Apple is leaning on some of its longest-tenured partners. All together, Apple said that its U.S. suppliers are on track to make 19 billion chips for its products this year. That level of business doesn't appear overnight. For example, Apple said that all of its cover glass for iPhones and Apple Watches would be made by Corning, in Kentucky, and that it would spend $2.5 billion on that effort. It's a powerful symbol — while the phone might be screwed together in China or India, the surface that users touch around the world will be made in the U.S. But Apple has pointed to Corning as a critical American supplier in the past. The company's glass has been used on the iPhone since its first version in 2007. While Apple typically doesn't let its suppliers talk about their relationships, former COO Jeff Williams hailed Corning's glass in 2017, when it got an 'investment' from the Apple Advanced Manufacturing Fund. Apple followed that up with a $250 million commitment in 2019, and $45 million in 2021. Analysts are skeptical that the partnership could substantially improve Corning's revenue. Morgan Stanley analysts wrote on Thursday that Corning 'already produces 100% of the cover glass for Apple's phones and tablets,' adding that Corning's glass business called Specialty Materials is worth about $2 billion per year. Apple also highlighted its partnership with Coherent, a longtime supplier of lasers for Apple's facial recognition hardware, which is made in Texas. Morgan Stanley pegged the business at about $100 million per year, and said Apple has options including Lumentum and Sony. The iPhone maker said it expanded a partnership with Texas Instruments to make chips in Texas and Utah. Texas Instruments has long supplied chips for the iPhone, such as circuits to control USB interfaces or power displays. Apple said it would partner with Samsung, another key supplier of parts like iPhone displays, to launch an 'innovative new technology for making chips,' without offering additional details. Apple declared that it will partner directly with companies in the semiconductor chain, even if they typically sell services or goods to Apple suppliers. Other partnerships are with Applied Materials, a tooling company, GlobalFoundries, a chip foundry, and GlobalWafers America, which is supplying Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. and Texas Instruments with made-in-USA wafers, the starting point for a batch of chips. GlobalFoundries manufactures chips for Broadcom, which supplies wireless chips for iPhones. Both will work with Apple to develop and manufacture 5G components in the U.S. Meanwhile, Apple will buy millions of advanced chips made by TSMC in Arizona, where it will be the factory's largest customer. Cook joined former President Joe Biden at the plant in 2022 and committed to buying chips from the factory. Apple said it would invest in and become a customer at an Arizona Amkor facility, which packages and tests chips, the final stage before installation in a computer. Apple also said it would expand existing data centers for artificial intelligence in North Carolina, Iowa, Nevada and Oregon. It's highlighted these data centers in the past in spending commitments. While Apple's announcement sent partner stocks up, JPMorgan Chase analysts warned in a note on Thursday that 'the new and expanded engagements might not be completely incremental to global revenues and outlook.' Trump had a different take. 'Oh, I love that you're doing this,' the president said, after reading a list of Apple's commitments. 'Cost of doing business' Apple has little to worry about when it comes to who will hold the company accountable for its promises. The company doesn't break out U.S. spending, and most of Apple's suppliers are contractually required to keep the information secret. Apple doesn't report how much its new campuses in Austin, Texas, or North Carolina end up costing. Additionally, the $600 billion headline number likely includes lots of regular expenses. Apple said in February that its $500 billion commitment included payments to U.S. suppliers, direct employment, data centers for Apple Intelligence and corporate facilities, as well as spending on Apple TV+ productions in 20 states. Apple started publicly announcing U.S. spending during Trump's first administration in 2018, at a rate of about $70 billion per year. In February, the company committed to $125 billion per year. Wednesday's announcement brings that figure to $150 billion annually. That's still a fraction of Apple's total spending. In Apple's fiscal 2024, the company spent $210 billion globally on cost of goods sold, $57.5 billion on operating expenses and $9.45 billion in capital expenditures for nearly $275 billion in global spending during the period. Teffler said she didn't think the newly announced spending would be material to Apple's profitability, especially since it already has relationships with the various companies such as Corning. 'They're going to spend money somewhere,' Tegler said. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, who previously predicted a made-in-USA iPhone would cost billions to produce and would leave consumers paying $3,500, said the Wednesday announcements indicate a much different approach. He said it's 'the cost of doing business.'

Apple's $704 Billion Decade-Long Buybacks Exceed Market Cap Of All But 13 Companies Worldwide
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Tim Cook-led Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has amplified its shareholder value for several years with a robust share repurchase program, so much so that only 13 firms worldwide have a market capitalization higher than the shares that AAPL has bought back. What Happened: Data shared by the Chief Market Strategist at Creative Planning, Charlie Bilello, shows that Apple has bought back $704 billion in stock over the past decade. That $704 billion figure exceeds the market capitalization of all but 13 companies globally and is greater than that of 488 companies in the S&P 500 index. Trending: The same firms that backed Uber, Venmo and eBay are investing in this pre-IPO company disrupting a $1.8T market — According to the chart shared by him, AAPL's current outstanding shares amount to 14.84 billion units, while it has bought back 95.66 billion shares in 10 years, on a trailing like Eli Lilly And Co. (NYSE:LLY), Visa Inc. (NYSE:V), Mastercard Inc. (NYSE:MA), and Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) have a market capitalization lower than that of Apple's buybacks in the last 10 years. However, experts have stated their frustration with Apple's share repurchase strategy. CNBC's 'Mad Money' host Jim Cramer has reiterated that the buybacks aren't working, and they need to make an acquisition in the AI space with its cash primary reason for promoting this acquisition of the AI-powered search engine, Perplexity AI, stems from the U.S. government's antitrust ruling against Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) expected in this month. It could force Google to end default search deals with Apple's Safari It Matters: Wedbush Securities' Tech Bull, Daniel Ives, popularly known as Dan Ives, shares the same views as Cramer. In July, Ives said that Apple's "treadmill approach" needs to end, and it needs to eye a big splashing partnership with either Perplexity or Anthropic. According to him, "It's a matter of when and not if, in other words, Apple needs to make a move, and it's clear. Perplexity to me seems like a no-brainer, relative to how it would fit." "The reason the stock can go up in the second half of the year is that I think Apple is going to make a move. I know they still haven't done an acquisition since Beats, being the biggest one, but now is the time for Cook and Cupertino to move away from the treadmill approach,' he added. Ives reiterated Apple with an Outperform and a $270 price forecast on Wednesday after it announced a new $100 billion commitment to increase investments in the U.S., bringing the company's total commitment up to $600 billion.
