OpenAI just announced its GPT-5 AI model on Thursday, but you won’t be able to use it with Apple Intelligence’s ChatGPT integration until iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe 26, Apple confirmed to 9to5Mac.
Apple Intelligence can rely on ChatGPT for things like helping answer certain Siri queries or alongside Apple’s Google Lens-like Visual Intelligence feature, but right now, it uses OpenAI’s GPT-4o model. Apple has only publicly said its next major software updates will arrive in the “fall,” and they’ll probably launch for everyone next month. But I’ve asked Apple if GPT-5 will be included with the developer and / or public betas of those updates, and if so, when it might be available.
GPT-5 was released to all ChatGPT users on Thursday, meaning that you’ll even be able to try it as part of the free tier. OpenAI says that ChatGPT is now used by about 700 million people every week.
