On the release of Apple’s beta version of iOS 18.1 to developers , a new generation of interesting artificial intelligence features are yet to be discovered. However, it lacks essential features like AI integration provided by chatbots like ChatGPT. The developers have also been provided access to the features of the Mac Operating system as well as the IPad.
Therefore it can be understood that Apple is trying to enter slowly into the world of AI. AI, as a tool is being used predominantly in the current times. It has revolutionized the understanding as well as the capabilities of what the internet can do in varying domains.
Therefore the integration of AI becomes a booming opportunity for tech giants like Apple to tap into the market which is indeed a guaranteed source of profit. Therefore it raises a pertinent question as to why Apple is opting for a slow roll out in the field of Artificial intelligence.
Lets explore the new set of features that have been updated in the iOS 18.1 version. The preview features encapsulate better responding systems in the working of the famous bot “Siri”. In the new update, Siri has been equipped to understand commands which are not fully coherent.
There has also been an introduction of a brand new feature which basically provides AI built summaries for native apps like Messages. Apple, however has planned to incorporate far reaching changes for Siri for the upcoming models. An array of questions has been raised in regards to Apple Intelligence.
There has been a probe initiated by Wall Street to know what the company expects about the changes that have been made due to the popularized usage of Artificial Intelligence. Tim Cook has answered a few of the questions in relation to the staggering roll out.
He clarified that the preview only consists of some features of Apple Intelligence. Other necessary features like languages beyond the mainstream U.S English will take place as the year proceeds. He also remarked that the amalgamation with ChatGPT will be initiated by the end of the calender year, thereby accepting the slow launch.
In the current scenario, it has been implied that the unification with ChatGPt would carve its way into the launch of iOS 18.1. However this feature is missing in the current preview provided to the developers. It can be anticipated that Apple is probably waiting to incorporate AI integration in a slow and steady pace, differing from its competitors.
The introduction would perhaps bring about a surprise element for the consumers, with an original take formulated by Apple itself. On interpreting Tim Cooks remarks its needless to say that ChatGPT integration will not be arriving before the launch of iOS 18.2 which is likely to be released in December. Waiting for the launches by Apple has always been an exhilarating experience so the bar is set quite high by the avid consumers.
