Apple has unveiled Apple Intelligence, a new AI system at WWDC 2024, designed to enhance user privacy and personal intelligence across iPhones, iPads, and Macs.
What is Apple Intelligence?
Apple Intelligence aims to deliver powerful AI performance while ensuring user privacy. CEO Tim Cook emphasized the need for 'personal intelligence' as the next significant step for Apple. The tool will leverage generative AI to understand and create images, execute actions across apps, grasp personal context, and improve daily tasks.
Key features include:
Writing tools
Email categorization
Audio transcription and summarization
Notification prioritization
Image and emoji generation through Image Playground and Genmoji tools
