Apple's New AI Features May Come with a Hefty Price Tag

Analysts suggest Apple could charge up to $20 monthly for premium AI tools to offset development costs.

Apple Intelligence, set to launch in October, includes AI-generated emojis, an intuitive Siri, and an image generator.
Industry experts predict Apple may integrate these features into the Apple One subscription model, starting at $19.95 monthly.
The AI tools will initially be free but could require a subscription for advanced features.
Apple aims to balance offering free and paid tiers to showcase its AI capabilities while monetizing advanced tools.
This pricing strategy follows the trend of other tech giants like Microsoft and OpenAI, who charge for premium AI services.
