Ben Volach, the co-founder of app developer Blix, claims that Apple blocks an Email app named BlueMail that makes use of a modified version of OpenAI's GPT-3 language model.
"Apple continues to treat BlueMail unfairly and discriminate against us, and it has blocked the update for BlueMail. According to Volach, other GPT-powered applications do not appear to be restricted.
According to a document viewed by Reuters, Apple asked Blix to either modify the app's age rating for users older than 17 or implement content filtering before rejecting the update last week. Blix asserts that many other apps on Apple's app store with similar features do not have age restrictions.
"We want justice. Volach posted a tweet that stated, "Others should also have to be 17 or older if we're required to be."
After looking into the complaint, Apple said that developers can use the App Review Board process to challenge a rejection.
Microsoft has announced a billion-dollar investment in OpenAI's ChatGPT, which has attracted the tech industry. In February, Alphabet's Google also announced its own AI chatbot, Bard.
The unpredictability of early search results and conversations has made headlines for the AI-powered chatbot field, which is still in its infancy.
