Apple Intelligence is free, but the company found an ingenious way to make money without charging

Apple has already found the initial formula for monetizing the use of AI in its devices without compromising Apple Intelligence, it will do so with the help of ChatGPT and others

Those in Cupertino are working at full speed to have Apple Intelligence ready for users who already have their new iPhone 16 and those who own the iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, between iPad and Mac with M series chips and recently the iPad mini with the A17 Pro chip. The iOS 18.2 beta hinted at something very interesting regarding future monetization that could benefit Apple

without directly billing your AI.

Apple to increase its services revenue, now with AI in iOS 18.2 thanks to ChatGPT

Although we at iPadizate have told you that Apple intends to have payment functions, there is still a long way to go to get there. As Apple’s AI gets stronger and finds its best version with all the new features announced, apparently a way to start making money has already been found thanks to the same artificial intelligence. It is known around the world that Apple’s range of services has positioned it as one of the best companies in terms of profitability. They will not be left out in this regard and will benefit from ChatGPT Plus billing.

ChatGPT Plus Subscription

Remember that requests made by the user through Apple Intelligence can be handled by ChatGPT as long as the user themselves provides consent. It’s completely free, but in the iOS 18.2 beta, the option to upgrade to the Plus version of OpenAI was added. This the option is under paid subscription for which they will start receiving commissions

for each user who accepts.

It wouldn’t be Apple Intelligence’s only paid AI, so those in Cupertino will earn even more

Remember when it was said that Apple wouldn’t pay OpenAI for using ChatGPT? Plans for this deal with the ChatGPT Plus subscription are already in the works. Those from Cupertino have the largest advertising showcase without promoting paid Apple Intelligence, instead They let other AI engines promote themselves to get something in return.

Apple Intelligence Extensions, ChatGPT

If Google Gemini were to be integrated, Apple could also benefit from offering this AI as an alternative.

and also offer the paid subscription for which you will get profits for each subscription. And it already looks like Apple will enable more AI engines. In the iOS 18.2 beta where ChatGPT is configured, there is a category called Extensions.

Another reality, currently hidden from users, is that Apple will learn from its competitors. We don’t know how well Apple works with OpenAI and ChatGPT when integrating with Apple Intelligence. We assume that those in Cupertino take note of this collaboration so that in the future their AI is strengthened and they begin to lay the groundwork for future payment functions. When will we see more AI services integrated within Apple Intelligence?
