OpenAI's Spring Update Sends Ripples Through Tech Giants

OpenAI's recent Spring Update event has sparked significant reactions from analysts, particularly in relation to its implications for tech giants like Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOGL).

Rosenblatt analysts hailed the update as "impressive," emphasizing the superiority of ChatGPT-4's natural language interactions across voice, visual, and text. They noted that OpenAI's live conversation demo sets a high standard, putting pressure on Google to match its capabilities at the upcoming Google I/O event. With Apple, Rosenblatt highlighted the potential for OpenAI's audio capabilities to achieve what Apple has long aimed for with Siri but hasn't accomplished yet. The prospect of Apple partnering with OpenAI to enhance Siri's capabilities looms large if Google falls short in matching OpenAI's advancements.

Similarly, analysts at Bank of America emphasized the significance of OpenAI's update, particularly in showcasing how AI can benefit devices at the edge, such as Macs and iPhones. They praised the seamless integration of voice, text, and images, underscoring AI's potential to drive productivity. Bank of America maintained a Buy rating on Apple, citing the potential benefits from GenAI at the edge, including gross margin upside and momentum in Services.
