Apple brings ChatGPT and other AI models to Xcode

At WWDC 2025, Apple unveiled a new version of Xcode, its app development suite, which now integrates OpenAI’s ChatGPT for enhanced coding, documentation generation, and more. This update allows developers to use API keys to incorporate AI models from various providers into Xcode, enabling AI-powered programming suggestions. Developers can utilize these AI models to write code, create tests, generate documentation, iterate on designs, and fix errors. The integration allows developers to access ChatGPT in Xcode without an account, although paid users can link their accounts for increased rate limits.

Additionally, Apple introduced the Foundation Models framework, allowing developers to access the company’s on-device AI models with minimal coding effort. This framework supports running local models on Apple Silicon-powered devices. Despite rumors of a collaboration with Anthropic for a vibe coding software, Apple opted for ChatGPT. Previously, Apple had demonstrated Swift Assist, a coding assistant for Xcode, but it was not widely released.
