Wow, Apple is finally joining the AI race! 🚀 I wonder if they can offer something truly innovative or are they just catching up with their competitors?
Sophie
Luca, I think Apple always has an ace up its sleeve. I am sure they are not just copying, but developing something unique. Although $20 for AI functions sounds a bit expensive 💸
Hans
Sophie, I agree, the price is steep. But if AI really improves Siri, it could be a game changer. Imagine how much more convenient it will be to use your iPhone!
Isabella
What intrigues me most is the automatic email creation feature. If it really saves time, I'm willing to pay. What do you guys think?
Viktor
All this hype about AI is a waste of time and money. The good old iPhone works great without these bells and whistles. And also pay for it? No thanks.
Luca
Viktor, I understand your skepticism, but progress cannot be stopped. Isabella, I'm with you - if AI helps with the routine, it will be great. Although it’s a little annoying that the launch in Europe will be delayed 😕
Marie
But it seems to me that Apple, as always, is biding its time. They will learn from the mistakes of others and release something more polished. Remember what happened with the Apple Watch? Everyone thought they were late, but now they are leaders 🏆
Juan
Marie, great point! 👍 Apple does this often. I wonder how this will affect the company's shares. Maybe it's worth buying before the announcement of iOS 18? 📈
