If Apple aren’t paying OpenAI and OpenAI aren’t playing Apple, it means that consumers are paying both.
Can we disable these options somehow?

Yes
Customers can opt out of OpenAI’s presence on their devices
Sure, buy an Android 🥹
Then you get Gemini instead. It is not required yet, but Google will bug you about it almost daily in multiple locations
You have to specifically request that siri uses chat GPT for a request.
ChatGPT already has a free tier. It’s likely the same deal. Apple said you can link your ChatGPT account if you want access to premium features.

Because the end user is the product.

Or, because Apple gets a free service that would cost an insane amount of money if they were to pay API fees or build their own data centers and models, and OpenAI gets free advertising by being included in millions of Apple devices. Seems pretty simple.

All true.
Also true but woefully incomplete. They also get millions of Apple devices and users to train their models at no cost. When I say you are the product, I mean that Apple sold access to you and everything you do to OpenAI in exchange for OpenAI functionality at no extra charge. I have no doubt that Apple will make a best efforts to anonymize data, but OpenAI absolutely will have deep access.
