Apple Takes a Bite of OpenAI's ChatGPT Pie with Native In-App Purchasing System

OpenAI's ChatGPT app has gained popularity and reached the top of the App Store charts, but Apple is quietly profiting from it through their 30% cut on all new subscriptions made through iOS. Despite criticism, OpenAI has chosen to use Apple's native in-app purchasing system instead of setting up a separate subscription website. This means that for every ChatGPT Plus subscription, Apple takes $6 of the $20 paid monthly by iOS users. While Apple's CEO has voiced commitment to integrating AI into their products, the company's pursuit of profit is still evident. The intricate dance between AI pioneers, big tech, and regulators continues as the AI revolution unfolds.
