Apple fans, get ready for some exciting news! Apple’s highly anticipated artificial intelligence (AI) features are on their way, although a bit later than expected. According to reliable sources like Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the release of these features will be delayed, missing the September launch of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18.
Here’s what you need to know:
– The new iPhone 16 lineup won’t have access to Apple Intelligence right out of the gate. Users will have to wait for the iOS 18.1 update, expected to arrive in October.
– Developers, on the other hand, will get a sneak peek at Apple Intelligence through iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 betas as early as this week.
– The decision to separate the launch of AI features from the initial iOS updates was made to ensure the stability and functionality of Apple Intelligence. This way, Apple can gather feedback from developers during beta testing.
– While some changes to Siri will be missing from the initial release of Apple Intelligence, Apple plans to roll out a full set of features through multiple updates into 2025.
– To enjoy all that Apple Intelligence has to offer, you’ll need an iPhone 15 Pro or newer, or an iPad and Mac with M1 chips or newer.
Exciting times are ahead for Apple users as they dive into the world of AI with these upcoming updates. Stay tuned for more information as we approach the official release date!
