I was surprised how little they are leaning on OpenAI. Most of the impressive integrations that actually look useful are on-device or in their private cloud. OpenAIs ChatGPT was relegated to a corner of Siri for answering "google queries", if you grant it permission. This seems like an L for OpenAI, not being a bigger part of the architecture (and I'm glad).

Agreed. The rumors beforehand made it sound Apple and OpenAI would practically be merging. This felt like a fig leaf so Apple could say you can access SOTA models from you iPhone. But for me personally, the deep integration with the ecosystem + semantic index are way way more interesting.

unfortunately Apple's own model is GPT 3.5 class which is way less intelligent than GPT 4
