News & Reviews:   Apple intelligence

As you should know, most Apple Intelligence features aren't available yet on the iPhone 16 series and iPhone 15 Pro models. If Apple is on time, we can expect the first update by the mid of October. That said, you should also know that Apple Intelligence will take up some space.

The new Siri, powered by Apple Intelligence, may be released to consumers earlier than expected. This is a pleasant surprise for iOS fans. So, what should you know about it?

With the pre-order launch of the iPhone 16 series in Malaysia, Apple has also released the latest iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS 15 Sequoia, watchOS 11, visionOS 2 and tvOS 18. To update, simply enter your Settings, then General and tap on Software Update.

Apple Intelligence is Apple's own generative AI feature. It focuses on processing from within the device, while those using the Internet are processed through private servers. Apple Intelligence is limited to Mac and iPad devices with an Apple A1 chip and above, while iPhones with an A17 Pro chip and above. This AI feature is also limited to users in the United States to be tested through iOS 18.1. Now, Apple Intelligence is open to everyone to test.

Last week, we reported that some analysts think Apple may put on a monthly fee for the full Apple Intelligence experience that is coming soon. We won't be surprised if that happens but according to Mark Gurman, he's saying otherwise.

When the iPhone 16 series launches in September, only some of the Apple Intelligence features will be available. But in this latest news, there are new rumours that Apple may actually put a price on Apple Intelligence of up to $20 (~RM89).

Apple Intelligence was the highlight during the WWDC 24 event but as reported before, some of the features will only come a few weeks later after iOS 18. The iOS 18.1 beta has already been released and the delay is becoming even more evident.

Apple is now reported to be experiencing a delay in the offering of their artificial intelligence services which is the main focus on iOS 18. According to Bloomberg, Apple is expected to launch Apple Intelligence around October 2024, instead of together with iOS 18 which is expected to arrive in September.

Apple reported that its artificial intelligence (AI) technology, Apple Intelligence, may not be launched in European Union (EU) countries this year. The tech company says the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA) places strict constraints on all online platforms and prevents anti-competitive behaviour among tech companies. So, what should you know about it?

By now, Apple fans should have heard about the upcoming Apple Intelligence features that will appear on iOS 18. However, not all the AI features will be available at launch and perhaps worst of all - only the iPhone 15 Pro series will get a piece of the pie.
