The report indicates that Apple intends to implement support for AI-based functions not only on user devices but also through cloud infrastructure. According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, Apple and OpenAI are “preparing an important announcement about their partnership at WWDC.” He also added that OpenAI is currently assessing the capacity of its available resources to ensure that the company can handle the influx of new customers that iPhone owners will provide.
