Apple Intelligence

Apple Intelligence is Apple's own AI system, unveiled at WWDC 2024 and rolling out gradually since then on compatible iPhones, iPads, Macs and Vision Pro. The system combines on-device models with Apple's Private Cloud Compute and a Gemini model specifically adapted for Apple, which serves as the foundation of a redesigned Siri. The feature set includes Writing Tools, Genmoji, Image Playground, generative image editing in the Photos app, Visual Intelligence via the camera, smarter notifications, a ChatGPT integration, and deep system-level integration in Mail, Messages, Safari and many other apps.

Here on apfelpatient.de, this tag pulls together every piece of Apple's AI push: new features across the current operating system generations, the long-awaited Siri reboot, leadership changes within the AI division, the architecture behind Private Cloud Compute, rumors and reports on upcoming AI hardware from Cupertino, regulatory topics around AI labeling and privacy, and comparisons with OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic and Microsoft Copilot.
