A recent blog post from a well-known name in tech has hinted that Apple could plan to lock certain features of the recently announced Apple Intelligence behind a subscription service.
In his latest Power On newsletter, Mark Gurman speculates that Apple intends to turn certain AI features and software into paid services over time. In the report, Gurman states, “ Though Apple Intelligence will be free to start, the long-term plan is to make money off of the capabilities.” While there is no insider information on what form this will take, Gurman theorizes that it could ape the current iCloud subscription and require a monthly subscription fee. Alternatively, it could become a part of the Apple One subscription pack.
