It was recently reported that Apple's upcoming iOS 18 will be the company's biggest update to the iPhone. The company is complying with the changes and features imposed by the European Union under the Digital Markets Act. While these are important new features, Apple plans to take a step into the field of artificial intelligence with the release of iOS 18. Apple CEO Tim Cook is interested in artificial intelligence, and Apple has invested heavily in the field over the past year or so. During Apple's earnings conference, Tim Cook shared his thoughts on AI and how AI will be coming to the iPhone later this year.
Apple is working on a series of features for the iPhone that involve artificial intelligence. According to previous reports, Apple will implement artificial intelligence in its messages, notes, Siri, and other parts of the operating system. However, Siri is expected to get one of the most important updates that will allow it to better compete with Google Assistant. Tim Cook said Apple has invested "a lot of time and effort" in artificial intelligence.
Going forward, we will continue to invest in these and other technologies that will shape the future. This includes artificial intelligence, which we continue to spend a lot of time and effort on, and we're excited to share details of the work we're doing in this area later this year.
The executive said Apple will roll out AI features later this year. While the iOS 18 version is scheduled for release in September, the company will announce the platform and AI features at its WWDC 2024 event. The event is expected to take place in June, when the company will announce iOS 18 and next-gen updates for Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and** Vision Pro headsets.
While Cook didn't share details about these features and how Apple will implement them, we suspect that AI will be implemented across the platform. For example, the company can provide generative AI capabilities in its app for editing. Generative AI can also be used in messaging applications to automate sentence completion. Apple Music and Xcode can also use the technology for their respective use cases.
OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard are advancing their AI algorithms and how to use the technology. Apple lagged behind because it failed to announce any new AI features when iOS 17 was released last year. The company is currently focused on the Vision Pro headset, which will be launched today. We'll keep you updated, so be sure to stick to it.
