苹果或将在 iOS 27 中允许用户选择首选 AI 模型

AI ‘extensions’ could let users run Apple Intelligence with third-party AI models — and not just ChatGPT. AI “扩展”功能可能允许用户使用第三方 AI 模型来运行 Apple Intelligence,而不仅仅局限于 ChatGPT。

The next update to Apple’s operating systems could allow users to choose their preferred AI model for running Apple Intelligence. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to allow third-party chatbots to power its AI features system-wide in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27, all expected for this fall. 苹果操作系统的下一次更新可能允许用户选择他们偏好的 AI 模型来运行 Apple Intelligence。据彭博社的马克·古尔曼(Mark Gurman)透露,苹果计划在预计于今年秋季发布的 iOS 27、iPadOS 27 和 macOS 27 中,允许第三方聊天机器人为系统级的 AI 功能提供支持。

In addition to running Siri, compatible third-party AI models, called “Extensions,” will also now be able to run other Apple Intelligence features like Writing Tools and Image Playground. 除了运行 Siri 之外,被称为“扩展”(Extensions)的兼容第三方 AI 模型现在也将能够运行其他 Apple Intelligence 功能,例如“写作工具”(Writing Tools)和“图像游乐场”(Image Playground)。

According to Gurman, Apple will also allow users to choose different Siri voices for different AI models — Siri responses from one of Apple’s AI models could have one voice, while an instance of Siri running on ChatGPT could use another voice. 据古尔曼称,苹果还将允许用户为不同的 AI 模型选择不同的 Siri 语音——由苹果自家 AI 模型生成的 Siri 回复可以使用一种声音,而运行在 ChatGPT 上的 Siri 实例则可以使用另一种声音。

Users will be able to “choose from AI model providers that opt in by adding support through their App Store apps.” Once a compatible AI app is installed, users will be able to set it as their preferred AI through the Settings app. 用户将能够“从那些通过 App Store 应用添加支持并选择加入的 AI 模型提供商中进行选择”。一旦安装了兼容的 AI 应用,用户就可以通过“设置”应用将其设为首选 AI。

Gurman says Apple is already internally testing integrations with Google and Anthropic’s AI models. Google’s models are also the backbone of Apple’s upcoming Siri revamp, but so far ChatGPT has been the only third-party AI model integrated into Apple Intelligence, which may not be the case much longer. 古尔曼表示,苹果已经在内部测试与谷歌(Google)和 Anthropic 的 AI 模型集成。谷歌的模型也是苹果即将推出的 Siri 改版的核心,但到目前为止,ChatGPT 是唯一集成到 Apple Intelligence 中的第三方 AI 模型,这种情况可能很快就会改变。
