What is Apple Intelligence?
The latest effort from the company is Apple Intelligence, an initative to embed powerful artificial intelligence directly into its operating systems. This collection of lives is meant to stretch your snart phoner, work with you faster and more responsive. Apple does a lot of this using AI, to boost your Siri knowledge, improve photo search and movie creation and generate summaries for emails and messages. The update is included in the beta version of iOS 18.1 that’s currently out for developers.
Availability and Access
This leak comes courtesy of confirmed leaker The Apple Post, with the Apple Intelligence feature set expected to be a premium option available only through subscription. If you participate in the Apple developer program (at a cost of $99 per year), all these features are available to you. But Apple Intelligence is a little different, and requires an additional step beyond simply updating your iOS software. More complicated ones that require communication with Apple servers will prompt users to sign up for a waitlist through the settings app by default after updating.
Apple Intelligence will be rolling out to the public later this year. That said, the version number does imply that it will not be launching at all alongside new iPhone hardware due in iOS 18 this fall. I expect this is a phased release to iron out the details of its rollout and probably so that we get feedback from developers before it hits prime time.

New Siri Enhancements

Passwords are divided into different sections: accounts, codes (for secret questions), Wi-Fi networks and -did I mention this to you before- Passkeys. The app also supports an iCloud for Windows application and a Chrome extension, making it easier to manage your passwords.

Siri and photo management improvements to AI summaries, new customization options, this update is full of great changes. Even though some features are (seemingly) still in the works, these early iterations do give us a peek at what could be next for AI integration on iPhones and iPads.

Whether you are just a developer who wants to try the beta out or an end user excited for spring next year, there is no question that Apple Intelligence will have a huge effect. We will have more information as Apple rolls out these changes in the year to come.
