ChainCatcher reported that according to the National Business Daily, after Apple and OpenAI announced their cooperation last month, there are reports that an Apple executive will serve as an observer on the OpenAI board of directors to further strengthen the partnership between the two companies.
Citing people familiar with the matter, media reported that Phil Schiller, head of Apple's App Store and former marketing director, was selected for the position. As a board observer, he will not serve as a formal director. In June of this year, Apple announced that it would provide ChatGPT on iPhone, iPad and Mac as part of Apple's artificial intelligence capabilities.
The board’s arrangements will take effect later this year, and Schiller has not yet attended any meetings, the people said. The details could still change.
