iOS 18: All Possible AI Features Coming To Your iPhone, Check Full List
Amidst the unveiling of the latest iPad Pro and iPad Air models, Apple discreetly teased an imminent AI transformation, slated for revelation at the upcoming WWDC 2024 developers conference. Termed as the most significant software leap since iOS inception, iOS 18 is primed to be infused with cutting-edge generative AI functionalities.
Diverging from some Android counterparts reliant on cloud infrastructure for similar experiences, Apple is leaning towards on-device AI prowess, leveraging the neural processors embedded in recent iPhones, iPads, and Macs.
Here's a breakdown of what's known thus far about the AI enhancements anticipated with the iOS 18 update this autumn:
According to insights from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is doubling down on proprietary AI technologies coupled with in-house cloud infrastructure. The bulk of forthcoming AI features will be processed locally for expedited response times and bolstered privacy. While Apple isn't crafting its own generative AI chatbot akin to ChatGPT or Gemini, speculation hints at potential collaborations with entities like Google/OpenAI to meet user expectations. Consequently, the AI chatbot experience on iPhones may closely resemble existing third-party solutions.
First-party iPhone apps are slated for an AI makeover this year, as per the same report. Expect notable integrations of generative AI across apps like Siri , Photos, Apple Music, and Notes. Apple has purportedly devised its own model for these tasks, promising superior efficiency and accuracy compared to publicly available models.
The Notes app stands to gain generative suggestion and editing functionalities, capable of rectifying spelling errors, improving grammar, and proposing textual enhancements. These services are poised to be powered by an on-device large language model (LLM).
Likewise, the Photos app is earmarked for Galaxy AI-esque capabilities, empowering users to manipulate backgrounds using generative AI. An earlier Bloomberg report hints at the potential introduction of AI-driven video editing features with the iOS 18 update.
Siri is in line for an AI overhaul, amplifying its capabilities further. Apple Music may also undergo AI integration, enabling features like auto-generated playlists and more.
There's speculation that certain features might be restricted to the iPhone Pro series, leveraging their robust chips for enhanced AI processing compared to entry-level models.
Likewise, for iPad and Mac, productivity suites like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are poised for AI enhancements. Apple will officially unveil these features on June 10 at WWDC 2024, with availability slated for the new iPhones in September.
