The upcoming iOS 18.2 update, due in December, will introduce innovative features that will transform the way AirPods are used. The integration of Siri with a popular chatbot will open up new ways of interacting through voice, making access to artificial intelligence more fluid and accessible than ever.
Using Siri integration with ChatGPT will completely change the rules of the game
AirPods will get big improvements thanks to iOS 18.2
iOS 18.2 will land next month with exciting changes for iPhone, such as key Apple Intelligence features, including Siri integration with ChatGPT, Image Playground, or Genmoji. However, it is the first that will radically change the use of AirPods, since it will allow Apple’s assistant to be used directly through them.
The how ChatGPT works with Siri is very simple: when Siri cannot respond to a request, she will connect to the OpenAI chatbot, a process that can be accelerated in Settings by disabling connection permission. Additionally, it is possible to indicate “Ask GPT” at the beginning of the request for a direct response.
The combination of ChatGPT and AirPods will be key
Thanks to AirPods, it will be possible to use Siri with voice commands thanks to the H2 processor. This will allow us to use ChatGPT by our voice via Siri, without needing the OpenAI application or website, simply stating the order, the appeal form and the request.
I tested this this week and I can’t wait for it to arrive in French, because at the moment it is only available in English (but it will arrive in Spanish in April 2025) and, by voice, it is not possible to make the request in French, because it does not understand it. However, the written text is well understoodwhich allows Siri integration with ChatGPT to be used in the beta version of iOS 18.2.
Have the opportunity to using ChatGPT through AirPods and Siri will completely transform the experience with these headphonesbecause this will allow access to artificial intelligence simply, quickly and efficiently by voice. It will suffice to say “Hey Siri, Ask GPT who is the CEO of Apple” or any other question that comes to mind.
iOS 18.2 will not be limited to the already mentioned Apple Intelligence features, it will also add up to ten new features for everyone, such as the ability to share a link with the location of a lost object, new dark mode icons in the Settings app, a slight redesign of the AirDrop icon and much more.
