Apple is gearing up to revolutionize the tech world with its first wave of user-centric artificial intelligence (AI) products at the annual WWDC developer conference. According to trade press reports, the tech giant is set to unveil a slew of innovative AI-powered features that will change the way we interact with our devices.

Siri Gets a Major Upgrade

CEO Tim Cook is expected to announce a significant update to Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant, which will be capable of analyzing user activity on the phone, such as messages or notes. This new version of Siri, which launched in 2011, will initially be able to control functions only in applications created by Apple. However, Apple is working on enabling Siri to process multiple tasks in one request.

Apple’s Large Language Model (LLM) called Ajax will enhance these functions, allowing for more advanced AI capabilities. This marks a significant shift in Apple’s approach to AI, as the company has been using AI to power its devices for years, but this is the first time it has advertised it.

iPhone 16: AI-Powered Hardware

The new iPhone 16 is expected to come with built-in AI on the device, allowing it to process AI algorithms in hardware. This is a significant development, as it will enable faster and more efficient AI processing.
