Apple continues to prepare everything for the revelation of its great artificial intelligence news in iOS 18 at the main event of the WWDC conference that will take place on June 10, 2024. Apple’s AI will debut with great news for users, it will run on the iPhone itself.
When we say that the artificial intelligence functions will run on the iPhone itself – of course, they are not going to run on another iPhone – it means that the AI system will run locally. Without relying on the cloud or Apple servers. That’s privacy.
Until now we had only seen rumors about the local execution of artificial intelligence on the iPhone. But now the news has been confirmed by Mark Gurman in his weekly Bloomberg news bulletin.
iOS 18 will run artificial intelligence locally
As the world eagerly awaits iOS 18’s welcome AI, it appears that “the first wave of AI features” will run entirely on the device.
“This means there will be no cloud processing component for the company’s language model; the software will run the new features.”
Apple’s goal is clear: to offer AI innovations without compromising the privacy of its users. An area in which the company has put a lot of care over recent years.
Nevertheless, Apple will most likely offer certain AI features in a cloud-based system in the future. Especially considering that not all iPhone models will have enough performance power to run all AI features. What’s more, it has been rumored that Apple will build hundreds of servers for AI.
Apple bets heavily on iOS 18 AI
Apple recently introduced ReALM, its own AI model capable of understanding context in visual elements on a screen and producing more natural interactions with a voice assistant. The firm also introduced Ferret-UI, an AI system specially designed to improve Siri’s proactivity.
Apple has been in negotiations with Google to integrate Gemini into iOS 18, but has also done the same with other companies such as OpenAI and Baidu. In addition, the California-based firm has also acquired numerous startups related to artificial intelligence.
New iOS 18 AI Features Coming to Spotlight, Siri, Safari, Shortcuts, Apple Music, Health, Messages and the iWork office suite with Numbers, Pages and Keynote. As we anticipated, Apple’s AI will be announced during WWDC in 2024.
