Every major tech company that we know of has stepped into the ring of AI. The one that is lagging behind is Apple. Well, it did show us something during its iPad ‘Let Loose’ event but there’s a long way to go. The California-based tech giant is all set to host its annual WWDC 2024 in June. It is expected that Apple will announce its AI revolution during the event. But will it? Seems like Apple is hitting various roadblocks on the way. We now hear rumours that Apple will only launch AI features in the iOS 18 beta.
Reports suggest that Apple is facing roadblocks with the AI revolution. Now, the company is planning on just releasing the AI features as a part of a Beta version of iOS 18. This was stated by Apple analyst Mark Gurman. He said that Apple is not really ready to unveil AI in its devices.

You might be wondering what exactly will Apple announce during WWDC if the company is not ready yet. Well, it is expected that Apple will soft launch these features for now and eventually unveil the whole pack in September. So Apple will announce iOS 18 with the AI features in a “Beta” or “Preview” version. However, Apple is surely working on something big to beat its competitors and will announce it later this year. It is taking its own time and is pretty conscious about how things go, as reported by Gurman.
