The eagerly anticipated iOS 18 update will turn iPhones into something of an AI laboratory. Apple is gearing up to surprise us all with a major announcement at this year’s WWDC 2024. According to newly leaked information, four core apps including Safari, Spotlight Search, Messages, and Calendar will feature Apple’s Ajax LLM AI, bringing a range of new smart features to our devices. Here are the details…
Three new iOS 18 AI features revealed
With the smart search feature in Safari, you’ll be able to summarize articles you’re reading. This function will work entirely on the device, meaning it won’t require an internet connection. Even if you’re in a café or on a plane without internet access, Safari will summarize texts and extract important information for you.
As for Spotlight Search, we can expect smarter results and rankings. Apple constantly updates Spotlight with more accurate information, making it faster and more efficient for you to find what you’re looking for.
Claude, the popular AI chatbot is now available on the App Store for iOS and iPadOS and can be downloaded on iPhone and iPad.
The integration of Messages and Siri is particularly intriguing. According to AppleInsider, Siri will be able to generate responses based on messages you receive, even without an internet connection. It’s unclear how well Siri will perform with this new feature, especially considering its struggles in telling the time on a HomePod at home.
The Calendar app is also undergoing a major change; features from the Reminders app will be added to Calendar. Additionally, Ajax LLM will help identify the name of a person mentioned in text input and assist in generating responses related to that person’s events.
All these iOS 18 AI features will be processed on your device, meaning your iPhone will utilize its power fully without transferring data to the cloud. It seems that with iOS 18, iPhones are becoming both smarter and more personalized. We’re excited to see how Apple will elevate the user experience with these innovations!
