What is Apple Intelligence? Apple Intelligence represents a personal AI Intelligence system that enhances various apps such as Siri, Photos, and Mail to offer a better experience for users while maintaining the highest level of privacy. Some of its key AI features include the ability to summarize emails or notifications, advanced editing capabilities, and a more pleasant Siri experience.
Apple Intelligence was indeed available in a developer and beta version but along with the iMac launch in the Apple event, the company announced that all the AI features would be available for public use . It’s important to know that these AI generative features are still in progress and will probably be updated periodically with various upgrades. Users will have to join a waitlist to have the new Apple Intelligence on their devices but the iPhone maker ensures that all users will wait just a few hours to activate the system.
