Apple WWDC 2024: Tim Cook to Unveil Major AI Features for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, VisionOS, and WatchOS

Apple's much-anticipated Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2024 is set to kick off today in California, with all eyes on Tim Cook's keynote address. Here are the live updates from the event:

Focus on Software: While WWDC has traditionally been a software-focused event, Apple occasionally surprises with hardware announcements like MacBooks or iPads. This year, however, Cupertino-based tech giant seems intent on focusing solely on software. Rumors indicate that Apple will leverage the power of AI to deliver significant updates across its operating systems.

Generative AI Features: Apple has reportedly inked a deal to integrate generative AI features into iOS 18. The official announcement is expected today. Talks are also ongoing with Google to bring Gemini's capabilities to iOS.

AI Features Opt-In: Apple's new AI capabilities are likely to be opt-in, requiring users to manually enable them rather than being enabled by default. Most AI tasks will be performed on the device, aligning with Apple's strong emphasis on privacy.

Enhanced Siri: Apple is enhancing Siri's ability to understand more natural language commands. According to a leak from Apple Insider, Siri is being trained to recognize speech patterns, sentence structures, and more complex instructions from users. This includes not only direct commands but also more nuanced requests related to setting up a blog, expressing laziness, or feeling nostalgic.

Privacy-Focused AI: By conducting most AI tasks on-device, Apple aims to maintain its privacy-focused image, ensuring that user data stays secure even as it expands Siri's capabilities.

The WWDC 2024 promises to be an exciting event for Apple enthusiasts, as the tech giant prepares to unveil its latest software updates and AI enhancements.
