Apple plans to introduce new local AI features in iOS 18 without relying on cloud servers, which will ensure more secure processing of personal data.
On-device AI
Local artificial intelligence
The Cupertino giant is preparing to introduce iOS 18 along with other updated operating systems on upcoming WWDC24 presentation on June 10. A significant part of this event will be the first artificial intelligence functions, which, according to Mark Gurman, will function locally on the device without the use of remote servers. This means that the cloud computing component has been removed from the larger language model that powers Apple's AI services. More secure local processing of sensitive personal information should be one of the key differentiators for Apple's AI, which has consistently placed a strong emphasis on privacy and security on iPhone and other products.
New AI features
New generative AI features are rumored to be coming to iOS 18 for the Spotlight search tool on iPhone. Also, Siri, Safari, Shortcuts, Apple Music, Messages, Health, Numbers, Pages, Keynote and other applications will be improved with new AI capabilities. Gurman previously reported that Siri will become smarter and learn to answer more complex questions, and auto-completion of sentences will appear in Messages. At this point, all indications are that Apple has no plans to directly compete with ChatGPT in iOS 18, but a built-in Gemini-based chatbot or other solution cannot be completely ruled out.
Cloud AI services
Apple will also likely offer a number of cloud-based AI features that will work on Google Gemini or other third party models. Apple's potential partners in the field of generative AI include Google, OpenAI and even China's Baidu. According to preliminary reports, Apple has been in talks with all of the above-mentioned companies. In addition, prominent Apple supply chain analysts such as Ming-Chi Kuo and Jeff Pu have reported that the iPhone developer is purchasing large quantities of specialized AI servers. Therefore, in the future, Apple may well fully join the race of generative artificial intelligence.

Wow, Apple is really pushing privacy technology forward with local AI! 🔒 Although it’s a bit of a pity that without cloud services the functions will be limited. By the way, have you heard about Apple’s AI partnership with OpenAI?
Sofia
I'm more concerned about how new AI will impact data security. 🤔 On the one hand, local processing is cool, but on the other hand, partnering with Google or OpenAI could compromise privacy.
Михаил
Come on, it's Apple! 😄 I'm sure they will find a balance between functionality and security. Personally, I'm waiting for an updated Siri that will finally be able to answer complex questions. 🤖
Анна
I agree that local AI is great. But my concern is whether they can provide the same high level of performance as cloud services. 💻 Although, on the other hand, Apple has always been famous for optimizing its products.
Станислав
Guys, just imagine how cool it will be when Siri can actually understand context and give meaningful answers! 🤯 This will be a breakthrough in communication with AI.
Юрий
Eh, you are all such optimists. 😒 I doubt that Apple can do without the cloud. And why should they fuss when there are ready-made solutions from Google or OpenAI? 🤷♂️
Ирина
What appeals to me most is the idea of auto-completion of sentences in Messages. 💬 This will be just a bomb for quick communication! True, it’s a little scary that the AI will see my messages...
Виктор
Yes, Apple, as always, goes its own way. 🤔 But I believe that they can make really cool local AI. Remember how they revolutionized mobile processors! 💥
Евгений
Guys, all this talk about AI is funny, but I'm an old curmudgeon and I don't believe in this fancy stuff. 😒 Give me the good old iPhone without all these bells and whistles!
Елена
Yuri, you are a skeptic as always! 🙄 I think Apple knows exactly what they are doing. They always put privacy first.
Давид
By the way, are you aware that Apple allegedly purchased a bunch of servers for AI? 🤔 Maybe they still plan to use the cloud, but in their own way.
Марта
Oh, how I'm looking forward to the new Spotlight with AI! 🔍 Finally, I will be able to find the information I need much faster. It would also be cool if AI could help with formatting in Pages and Keynote.
Франческо
I can already see how Apple Music will get better with AI! 🎵 Maybe he can help me find cool new music based on my preferences?
Наталья
Have you wondered how the new AI will affect the Health app? 💊 It would be great if he could analyze my data and give health recommendations.
Павел
Guys, don't panic! 😄 I’m sure Apple has thought through everything and will make sure that the AI is as safe and effective as possible. After all, it's Apple! 🍎
