Apple is not paying OpenAI, because it believes that putting its technology in front of hundreds of millions of users is equal to or even better than any kind of monetary payment, according to Bloomberg.

  • 100% correct.

    At the moment there are tons of Ai companies all trying to be The One that everybody will use.

    But Google has Gemini and it has Android. Android has 70% market share worldwide and is offering Gemini for free to every user. That's MASSIVE exposure.

    For openai to get on Android the user has to install it as an app. It's VERY difficult to get your average user to know what openai is and why they should use it, never mind getting them to install the app.

    So to be the default Ai on iPhone is a HUGE deal for openAi and gives them massive exposure over the competition.

    Google pays Apple billions to Apple to be the default search engine so openAi not having to pay anything is actually very surprising to me.

    I think the only reason Apple isn't making them pay is because Apple plans to offer other Ai services in future.

    • That’s a really good point.

      OpenAI is also pushing pretty hard to get partnerships with Samsung. If they had Apple and Samsung, they’d have half of the phones in the world.
