There have been recent predictions by analysts that Apple might charge a $20 monthly fee for its AI features. However, according to Mark Gurman from the Power On newsletter, Apple charging for these features is unlikely to happen anytime soon. He believes it will take at least three years.
Apple initially unveiled its AI features at WWDC, including a new Siri, Genmoji, Image Playground, and more across Apple apps. As these features are primarily device-based, it indicates that Apple is still in the early stages of AI technology. Hence, charging for such basic features at this point would be unreasonable.
Mark Gurman also stated that he predicts Apple will develop more advanced features based on the current AI offerings and may charge for those. However, he believes it will take at least three years for the company to develop valuable products worth monetizing. According to him, this is the best scenario Apple could implement.
In summary, users need not worry about paying for Siri in the near future.
