Apple develops ChatGPT-like tool, betting on a breakthrough by March next year

Jinse Finance reported, citing informed sources, that Apple has developed an iPhone application similar to ChatGPT to assist in testing and preparing for next year's highly anticipated major upgrade of Siri. According to the sources, Apple's artificial intelligence department is using this application to rapidly evaluate new features for the Siri voice assistant, including testing its ability to search personal data (such as songs and emails) and to perform in-app operations like photo editing. The software is codenamed "Veritas," which means "truth" in Latin, and is currently for internal use only. Apple currently has no plans to release this application to consumers. Essentially, this application presents the still-in-development new Siri technology in a form that allows employees to test it more efficiently. After multiple delays, the new Siri is expected to debut as early as March next year. If the software performs as promised, it could help Apple make a comeback in the field of artificial intelligence. If it underperforms, the company may fall further behind smartphone competitors such as Alphabet's Google and Samsung Electronics.
