Apple's iOS 18 may include Anthropic's Claude 3 AI
iOS 18, Apple's upcoming major software update, is rumored to incorporate a variety of new features, with a significant focus on artificial intelligence (AI). Among the potential partnerships for AI features in iOS 18, Anthropic, a startup backed by Google and Amazon, has been mentioned as a possible collaborator alongside other major AI players like OpenAI and Google.
Anthropic recently unveiled Claude 3, a suite of AI models, with its most capable model, Claude 3 Opus, reportedly outperforming rival models such as GPT-4 from OpenAI and Gemini 1.0 Ultra from Google in various benchmark exams. This development indicates Anthropic's competitive position in the AI technology race, making it a noteworthy candidate for collaboration with Apple on iOS 18.
Apple's interest in integrating generative AI features into iOS 18 has been widely reported, with the company rumored to be in discussions not only with Anthropic but also with OpenAI and Google. The potential inclusion of Anthropic's technology in iOS 18 could allow Apple to leverage Claude 3's capabilities, particularly in multimodal AI that can respond to both text and images, enhancing the iPhone's AI-driven functionalities.
Moreover, Apple's exploration of partnerships with AI firms like Anthropic aligns with its broader strategy to enhance iOS with generative AI features. These features are expected to span across various applications, including Siri, Spotlight, Apple Music, Messages, and more, aiming to make iOS 18 one of the most significant updates in the iPhone's history….

Apple Is in Talks to Let Google Gemini Power iPhone AI Features
Apple Inc. is in talks to build Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence engine into the iPhone, according to people familiar with the situation, setting the stage for a blockbuster agreement that would shake up the AI industry.
The two companies are in active negotiations to let Apple license Gemini, Google’s set of generative AI models, to power some new features coming to the iPhone software this year, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the deliberations are private. Apple also recently held discussions with OpenAI and has considered using its model, according to the people.
If a deal between Apple and Google comes to fruition, it would build upon the two companies’ search partnership. For years, Alphabet Inc.’s Google has paid Apple billions of dollars annually to make its search engine the default option in the Safari web browser on the iPhone and other devices. The two parties haven’t decided the terms or branding of an AI agreement or finalized how it would be implemented, the people said.
A deal would give Gemini a key edge with billions of potential users. But it also may be a sign that Apple isn’t as far along with its AI efforts as some might have hoped — and threatens to draw further antitrust scrutiny of both companies.
Apple is preparing new capabilities as part of iOS 18 — the next version of the iPhone operating system — based on its own AI models. But those enhancements will be focused on features that operate on its devices, rather than ones delivered via the cloud. So Apple is seeking a partner to do the heavy lifting of generative AI, including functions for creating images and writing essays based on simple prompts….

GPT-5 release rumors
Based on the recent rumors and reports, it seems likely that OpenAI will release a major new language model, potentially called GPT-5, sometime in mid-2024, and possibly as early as this summer. However, OpenAI has not officially confirmed the release timeline or even the existence of GPT-5.
Some key points about the potential GPT-5 release:
- Anonymous sources claim enterprise customers have recently received demos of GPT-5, describing it as "materially better" than GPT-4.
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has hinted that they will release an "amazing new model" this year, but hasn't confirmed if it will be called GPT-5. He previously said GPT-5 was not in development as of mid-2023.
- Rumors suggest GPT-5 could be 10x more powerful than GPT-4 and capable of generating human-like text, perfect translations, and creative writing. However, these claims are unverified.
- If released, GPT-5 is expected to be a further leap in AI capabilities, potentially bringing us closer to artificial general intelligence (AGI).
While the rumors are exciting, it's important to wait for official announcements from OpenAI. Altman himself has given mixed messages, so the release plans still seem uncertain. GPT-5 will almost certainly come eventually, representing another major milestone, but the exact timing and capabilities remain to be seen….
