Apple ’s Latest iOS 18.1 Beta: Artificial Intelligence Innovations

Apple has released a beta version of iOS 18.1 for developers, which features a proprietary system based on artificial intelligence, Apple Intelligence. AI features are only available to owners of the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, 9to5Mac (https://9to5mac.com/2024/07/29/ios-18-1-beta-1-now-available/)

To access the update, you must be a participant in the beta testing program. To access the neural networks, you need to sign up for the waiting list in the device settings. On average, it takes several hours for the application to be approved.

What awaits Apple users?

Among the new features is the prioritization of emails in the mail. There, especially important emails can contain dates and calls to action. In addition, a summary is now shown in the preview of emails instead of the first lines of text.

Improved search by photos. The system can process requests and select relevant photos. A “smart” search by video is also available. Thus, the neural network finds the requested fragment and opens it.

In addition, neural networks in Apple Intelligence can retell texts. Also appeared the function of checking them for errors and rewriting on request in different styles.

The Siri voice assistant has become “smarter”. Now the assistant understands voice commands better even if the user stumbles. It understands and can answer questions about the use of Apple devices and services. Siri has also learned to recognize the connection between requests. For example, you can first ask to add a meeting to the calendar and then set up a reminder without specifying details.

At the moment, Apple Intelligence does not have an image generator and emoji, a tool for removing foreign objects from photos and integration with ChatGPT. Siri also cannot yet perform actions in other applications for the user.

In addition to iOS 18.1, beta versions of iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1 have become available to developers. To support Apple Intelligence in them, a device with an M1 chip or newer is required.
Annual service will cost about $ 99
