The latest rumor from Apple is causing a stir: the upcoming iPhone 16 could be equipped with a significantly improved Neural Engine.

Since the introduction of the Neural Engine in the iPhone 8, Apple has been continuously improving it. Now a major update is coming that could take the performance of iPhones and Macs to a new level. These advances promise not only exciting new features but also faster and more efficient use of AI and machine learning.

‌iOS 18 to focus on AI integration

The upcoming A18 and M4 chip generation will be Report be equipped with a significantly improved Neural Engine. This Neural Engine is said to have a remarkable number of cores, which means a significant increase in performance for AI and machine learning tasks. In particular, iOS 18 is expected to introduce a variety of new generative AI features that are intended to improve Siri, Shortcuts, Messages, Apple Music and other apps. Apple CEO Tim Cook has already hinted that the company is working on innovative AI technologies and will announce further details in the near future.

The A18 and M4 chips are said to have an improved Neural Engine

The history of the Neural Engine in iPhones shows a continuous evolution, starting with the 2-core design in the iPhone 8 to the impressive 16-core models in the latest iPhone generations. Although the number of cores has remained the same, Apple has continuously improved performance. For example, the A17 Pro chip in the iPhone 15 Pro is said to offer a Neural Engine that is up to 2x faster than its predecessor in the iPhone 14 Pro. Notable developments can also be expected for Mac models. Most current Macs are equipped with a 16-core Neural Engine, while the Mac Studio and Mac Pro are even available with a 32-core Neural Engine. With the introduction of the M4 chip, Apple is expected to make significant improvements here as well, further increasing the performance of Mac computers. (Photo by Your_photo / Bigstockphoto)
