iOS 18 will be the first beneficiary of the AI push from Apple and thanks to its deal with OpenAI you will also get access to the free ChatGPT 4o version which was also confirmed. But here we take a look at the AI-powered tools that Apple has announced and which of its apps will get its upgrade this year.
All AI-powered apps from Apple WWDC 2024
- Apple is bringing the ability to rewrite a paragraph or article to apps like Pages and Notes.
- You can summarize content from Mail, Messages and other third-party applications to simplify the text instead of reading the entire mail/page.
- Photo editing by AI comes to the Photos app to let you remove unwanted subjects and get a clean frame without any distractions.
- You'll find Meta AI-like image generation capabilities built into Messages, Keynotes, Freeform and Pages.
- Apple is also bringing an Image Wand that works with the Apple Pencil on the iPad to reference text and create an image based on relevance.
- And finally, you have Siri in a new, AI avatar that promises to be your trusted personal assistant, capable of handling all your daily tasks and more.
Apple Intelligence is being offered for free but Apple's ploy is to get people to upgrade from their iPhone 13, 14, or even 15 models to the iPhone 15 Pro or a later variant a year or so later.
