Apple has launched a significant update to its Apple Intelligence platform, marking its first major improvement since its launch last October. While the initial release focused on AI-assisted writing tools and summarization features, this recent update, iOS 18.2, introduces revolutionary image generation capabilities as well as integration both expected with ChatGPT. These additions strengthen Apple Intelligence as a powerful AI platform, combining productivity and creativity on Mac, iPhone and iPad.
One of the highlights of this update is the integration of ChatGPT into Apple Intelligence and Siri. This significantly increases the usefulness of Apple devices, turning Siri into a more capable assistant and expanding the platform’s writing capabilities.
Use ChatGPT with Siri
Apple’s digital assistant, Siri, now has a powerful ally: ChatGPT. Although Siri was good at retrieving personal information stored on your device, its responses to broader questions were often less effective than those of generative AI tools like ChatGPT. Now it’s possible to instruct Siri to use ChatGPT to get answers that require deeper knowledge or nuanced responses.
How to use it:
Activate Siri (hold the side button on iPhone/iPad or click the Siri icon on Mac).
Start your query with “Use ChatGPT”, for example: “Use ChatGPT to explain quantum mechanics.”
Siri will forward the request to ChatGPT and display the response directly in its interface.
This feature is available on iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2 and macOS 15.2, and works perfectly within Apple’s ecosystem.

Improved writing tools with ChatGPT
The first version of the Apple Intelligence platform introduced tools for tweaking and rewriting text, providing the ability to make messages more professional, concise, or friendly. With the integration of ChatGPT, these writing tools now include text generation capabilities.
How to use it on iPhone and iPad:
Long press in a text field.
From the context menu, select Writing Tools.
Tap Compose, then choose Compose with ChatGPT.
Describe what you need, and ChatGPT will generate the text directly in the field.
Get started with ChatGPT on Apple devices
To use ChatGPT with Apple Intelligence, you will need to enable these two features:
Open Settings (or System Settings on Mac).
Go to Apple Intelligence & Siri and enable Apple Intelligence.
In the Extensions section, select ChatGPT and enable “Use ChatGPT”.
You can use ChatGPT without signing in to an OpenAI account, ensuring that your queries remain private and are not used to train AI models. However, by logging into a ChatGPT account, the platform can store your queries and personalize responses, although this involves a reduction in privacy.
Compatibility and system requirements
The updated Apple Intelligence platform is available on iPhone 15 Pro or later, iPad mini (A17 Pro), iPad Pro, or iPad Air (with M1 chip or later); and on Apple Silicon Macs running iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, or macOS 15.2.
By integrating ChatGPT into its ecosystem, Apple Intelligence is now positioned as one of the most versatile AI platforms available, meeting user needs for intelligent assistance, better writing tools, and dynamic image creation.
Whether writing emails, designing emojis, or exploring AI-generated art, new features make Apple devices indispensable tools for work and play.
