Looks like 2024 will be “General Artificial Intelligence“For Apple, where major updates are being planned for the iOS 18 system, we believe that Apple’s version of artificial intelligence will be as impressive as ever. Apple is known to not release anything to the user unless it is more perfect than the competition, and this is mainly due to its policy of acquisitions.” At the source of the technologies you want to introduce after you are fully convinced of them, otherwise you will simply cancel them as happened with AirPower And recently with the Apple car. Rumors, and Tim Cook himself, indicate that there are new and advanced artificial intelligence features under development for various Apple platforms. Here's everything we know about the ways Apple is exploring its own AI features.
New AI features are under development for iOS 18 update
There have been a number of rumors about different AI features being worked on within Apple. Bloomberg reported that Apple believes that the iOS 18 update will be one of the biggest iOS updates ever, due to it containing a number of new artificial intelligence features.
Mark Gurman reported last July that Apple had created its own large language model (LLM) system, which it called AppleGPT. The project uses a framework called “Ajax” that began construction in 2022 to use different machine learning projects on a common basis. This Ajax framework will serve as the foundation for Apple's upcoming AI features across all of its platforms.
9to5Mac found evidence of Apple working on large language models and powerful artificial intelligence technology in the iOS 17.4 update. They were informed that Apple relies on OpenAI's ChatGPT API for internal testing to help develop its AI models.
Here are some rumors about new AI features coming to iOS 18:
◉ A new version of Siri is smarter, and relies on large language modeling technology, similar to platforms such as ChatGPT and Gemini from Google.
◉ New AI features for Apple Music allow users to automatically create playlists.
◉ AI integration into Pages, Keynote, and Numbers for summarizing, content creation, and more.
For example, for Pages (a text processing application), AI features may enable automatic text summarization or advanced spelling and grammar checking.
The Keynote application (presentation application) AI features will likely enable the automatic creation of presentations based on existing texts or the creation of new slides according to selected styles, as well as improving the quality of the presentation by suggesting relevant graphics, pictures and charts.
For Numbers (spreadsheet software), AI features may help analyze data, automatically generate insights from spreadsheets, and create intelligent data formats and layouts based on table content.
◉Xcode AI features that can complete blocks of code, help test apps, and more.
◉ An upgraded version of Spotlight search powered by generative AI, which can perform more complex tasks.
◉ An AI-powered health coaching feature built into the Health app and Apple Watch.
◉ Also new AI features for the Messages app, which can automatically complete messages, answer questions, and summarize incoming text messages.
Apple AI frameworks
Apple has already launched a number of powerful AI frameworks and models. During Apple's recent earnings call, Tim Cook showed off a rare teaser for a future product announcement. According to Cook, Apple is spending “a tremendous amount of time and effort” on AI technologies, and the company is “excited to share details of our ongoing work in this area later this year.”
It's very rare for Cook to even remotely hint at Apple's plans for future product announcements. Why did he do that this time? This is likely to ease the concerns of investors and analysts who are concerned about Apple falling behind the likes of OpenAI, Google and Microsoft.
Edit images using text commands
Apple recently rolled out an open source AI model called MGIE, which allows users to edit images using simple text commands. Using MGIE, users can describe what they want to achieve in natural language, such as making the sky bluer or modifying specific areas such as faces or backgrounds. The template can perform various editing tasks, including common Photoshop-style edits and more advanced edits such as changing backgrounds or adding artistic effects. Although it is currently in its early stages and is available as a model Open source on GithubHowever, there is the possibility of it being integrated into Apple products in the future, making AI photography features more accessible and user-friendly.
Create animation from a still image
Apple unveiled a pioneering artificial intelligence tool called Keyframer, which enables users to create animations using only a static image and text instructions. This announcement underscores Apple's ongoing but secretive work in the field of artificial intelligence, despite previous criticism regarding Siri's sophistication compared to competitors such as Google and Amazon. With Keyframer, users can animate still images using natural language commands, making it especially useful for graphics professionals to quickly test ideas. However, its capabilities extend beyond professionals to include businesses in need of social media content and users looking for easy-to-use animation tools.
While both Keyframer and MGIE are still in their early stages, they could eventually become standard features on Apple devices, demonstrating the company's commitment to advancing AI capabilities. Apple may exploit the features of artificial intelligence, offering it in a free, low-cost form and a very advanced, but paid, form.
Conclusion
The truth is, we don't know which of these many rumors and speculations will come true this year. Certainly not all the AI functionality expected for this year's release will be available. We assume that Apple is working hard on developing a set of features, but some of them may be included in the major iOS 18 update initially and some may be postponed for later updates or even with the release of iOS 19 in 2025.

Frankly, I do not like to follow leaks, especially related to Apple systems, because I will feel very frustrated when these leaks do not materialize on launch day.
But I expect that most of these features will be exclusive only to iPhone 16 devices and will be with an iCloud subscription due to the development of models 🤖 that are very, very, very expensive, and therefore an iCloud subscription will give greater value to the price.
But for me, I will not benefit from these features much, since I do not use Apple applications, and neither do most of those around me.
Hi Ahmed 🙋♂️, You seem to have a fairly clear vision about Apple's policies, and I agree with you that leaks can be frustrating sometimes. But Apple always surprises us with more! As noted in the article, there are a lot of new features expected in iOS 18 that could change your mind about using Apple apps. 😄📱🚀
Apple will certainly excel in this field, as it does not provide features until it has done its work in a distinguished manner that befits the status of the company and its devices. Even if Apple is late, we are confident that what we will get will be worth the wait, and that the expected features will please us.
There is no doubt that Apple is innovative, but there is always development and the price must be paid to catch up with it and to obtain it, and the price is high. Today is an update and tomorrow it ends and another update begins and then ends and so we remain in a spiral and we continue to pay high prices and the first beneficiary is Apple and the owner of the application and we are unfortunately the victim. However, in the end, we acknowledge that Apple is a giant and deserves respect and appreciation
Hello Mohamed Hamad 🙋♂️, I completely understand what you are saying, technology is developing very quickly and sometimes it is difficult to catch up with it. But that's the nature of innovation, there's always something new on the horizon! Apple truly deserves credit for always being at the forefront of these developments. Let us not forget that all new updates and innovations come with the aim of improving the user experience and enriching his digital life. 😄📱💡
Apple's excuse is that, unfortunately, these features do not support the iPhone 11, 12, or possibly 13, because they require more processing 🥱
Hello Nawar 🙋♂️, Apple is always interested in providing the best experiences for users, and I believe that modern devices will be able to handle new features. But let's wait and see, maybe she has magical plans up her sleeve! 🎩✨
Just expectations
In the iOS 18 system, Apple will remove the word iOS so that its name becomes iPhone, OS, and the name of the system will become iPhone, OSXNUMX.
This is according to what I expected, or the name of the system iOS will be based on its old name and Apple will not change it
Apple is creative 👍🏆 and artificial intelligence is creative and dangerous 👍🏆
I do not think that Apple will outperform competitors in the field of artificial intelligence for several reasons, namely the huge amount of data that its competitors possess compared to Apple, which has tried as much as possible to limit their superiority by playing on privacy and data protection and trying to direct the consumer towards paying monthly subscriptions instead of earning money through targeted advertisements.
Welcome, Moataz 🙋♂️ Haven’t you heard the famous saying: “All that glitters is not gold”? As with quantity of data, quality always outweighs quantity! Yes, Apple's competitors may have more data, but that does not guarantee their superiority in the field of artificial intelligence. Apple focuses on data quality and ways to use it effectively and securely. Privacy is not a distraction from technological progress, but rather a part of it! 🍏💪🏼
May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. Frankly, the biggest technical lie is that Apple does not disappoint the opinions and actions of its users. In iOS 16 and XNUMX, we heard that these updates would change the iPhone, but we did not see anything.
Hello Sultan Muhammad, I think you are waiting for a lot of Apple technology and that is good 🙌 but let us remember that technical development requires time and patience. Of course, we may be disappointed sometimes but what you always find is an investment in the future. How many times has a feature appeared in iOS and felt like it wasn't of much use, only to find it years later becoming an essential part of our daily experience? 🤔😄 We must not overlook Apple's constant interest in innovation and creativity, as this is the spirit that made Apple so loved.
We trust Apple's ability and do not stand still. Sorry for the unintentional error
We stand by Apple's ability to outperform its competitors in this area
I hope to see iOS18 something amazing and charming, but I'm afraid it won't have light features.
Hi Salman 🙋♂️, you're clearly looking forward to iOS 18! I can tell you with confidence that Apple does not disappoint. 🍏💫 This iOS update is expected to be full of amazing features, especially in the field of artificial intelligence. Don't worry, it seems that Apple will charm us again! 😄👏🎉
May the peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. What are the obstacles for Apple to create its own chatbot? I expect that if there were obstacles, the main obstacle is that the chatbot will be somewhat expensive.
Welcome, Sultan Muhammad 🙋♂️, there are no real obstacles for Apple to create its own chatbot. In fact, Apple is already developing artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, and this includes the Large Language Model (LLM) system, which is an advanced system for understanding and generating text. Additionally, Apple uses OpenAI's ChatGPT API for internal testing. So the future may bring us a chatbot from Apple that is more advanced than Siri! 😃💬🍏
Pardon, a deal with major newspapers in America.
I read that Apple wants to make a deal with major companies in order to supply its artificial intelligence content. We hope that Apple will move forward and succeed and that its work will not be disrupted.
Hi Ali 🙌, Thank you for your comment. Yes, Apple is always looking to achieve progress in the field of artificial intelligence and this clearly appears in its plans for iOS 18 updates. Of course, the company always seeks to provide the best user experience and we also hope for its success. Always ready to keep you updated with the latest news about Apple 🍏😊.
