Apple’s nearly two-hour-long Worldwide Developer Conference kick-off event was packed with announcements.
The biggest news was the introduction of Apple’s artificial intelligence model, Apple Intelligence. This AI is designed to draw from users’ personal information on their devices to answer questions in a privacy-conscious manner.
Siri will now be able to answer questions using data from multiple apps. For instance, it can prep you for meetings by accessing your calendar, summarising documents, and checking the weather.
Apple Intelligence also brings AI-generated emojis and images to iMessage, allowing users to create custom emojis and non-photorealistic images with text prompts.
Additionally, there’s a partnership with OpenAI: Siri can determine if a query is better suited for ChatGPT, asking for user permission before sending the request. This integration will be seamless and free, even without a ChatGPT account.
Other highlights include hidden apps with enhanced privacy controls, real-time call transcripts, gesture controls for AirPods, and advanced health monitoring on Apple Watch.
And if you’re worried about math problems, no problem! Math Notes allows iPadOS 18 to write out and solve sums in real time – in your handwriting no less!
