AI is the future for all of Apple's upcoming products. The recent deals, features, and even hardware integrations all point toward the rise of AI-powered devices with the upcoming iPhone 16 one of its flagship projects.
While most details on the AI transition have been made public, only a few details have been reported on how Apple intends to introduce AI-enabled features to its users.
Ahead of the iPhone 16 series release, here are some key takeaways users might notice as more AI features roll out into their devices:
The Age of AI Chatbots
As Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has noted, Apple intends to bring its AI advancements to reinvent Siri with "more natural-sounding interactions" across the Apple ecosystem.
This will be in addition to the technological support ChatGPT will provide to the iOS following the successful partnership between OpenAI and the phone maker.
Similar to Samsung's current AI-enabled voice assistants, the arrival of ChatGPT-powered features on iPhone will allow users to access apps and functions through a centralized chatbot.
People may soon open apps, send messages, and take notes without even touching their devices as the AI will do most of the work.
If Apple does indeed plan to bring the feature to other devices, users can expand the AI's capabilities to their smartwatches and iPads to integrate workflow across multiple devices much more smoothly.
Upgrades in News Stories, Notifications
One of the key details announced in the upcoming iOS 18 will be the introduction of AI tools to provide summaries for news stories and notifications.
With the iOS 18 slated to be released with the iPhone 16, these changes are expected to arrive with other improvements to streamline the notification system in people's phones.
This will help people customize and personalize their notifications into other apps and features on the device.
AI-Powered Gaming Experience
The release of the iPhone 15 last year has marked Apple's biggest step to attract gamers as it improves its processing capabilities to handle even graphic-extensive games like Death Stranding, Assassin's Creed Mirage, and Resident Evil 4 and Village.
With Apple planning to continue the trend, it can be expected that AI will also come into play to optimize the gaming experience further.
This includes integrating cloud-supported features to lessen the load on the phone while gaming as background processes are delegated to the AI rather than the phone's processors alone.
