US-based Apple and ChatGPT maker OpenAl have reportedly signed a groundbreaking deal to integrate OpenAl's cutting-edge generative Al technology into Apple's software ecosystem.
According to The Information, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman promised to revolutionize Apple's Al capabilities and potentially generate substantial revenue for OpenAl.
Interestingly, the integration could yield billions of dollars for the Al giant.
However, the partnership has left Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella deeply worried. OpenAl relies heavily on Microsoft servers, and adding Apple users to the mix could overwhelm Microsoft's data centres.
The report noted that Nadella recently met with OpenAl's CEO Sam Altman to discuss the deal, expressing concerns about its impact on Microsoft's product ambitions.
With over 2.2 billion active Apple devices, the potential data surge is a significant concern for Microsoft.
Additionally, Microsoft would face direct competition from any Al features Apple integrates into its platforms.
It's worth noting that Microsoft is the largest investor in Sam Altman-led OpenAl, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
