As Apple aims to monetise AI, select Apple Intelligence features may stay behind paywall
Apple is looking at its AI features as a possible revenue model and the company might soon introduce two tiers of Apple Intelligence, one available for free on select devices with the other being a premium set of features exclusive to paid users (similar to the iCloud+ subscription), suggests a report by Bloomberg.
Hardware sales across the smartphone and computer industry have declined post-pandemic, affecting Apple as well. This has forced manufacturers to look at alternative streams of revenue, possibly through value-added services. Apple is said to be looking at the AI frenzy as one such avenue.
