It’s worth noting that Google’s enjoyment in the realm of AI might face a challenge soon, as Apple is reportedly gearing up to introduce its own AI features with the upcoming iOS 18. We can expect the new update to drop in June this year during the WWDC.

Now, let’s talk about the upcoming iPhone features. We could get a more improved version of the personal assistant Siri. It is expected to get more intelligent and could even use a new AI system that incorporates large language model technology.

In the upcoming iOS 18 update, the Messages app will likely feature integrated AI capabilities, allowing it to handle inquiries and even assist in auto-completing sentences. Additionally, Apple Music could also incorporate AI features that will auto-generate playlists.

AI is also expected to be incorporated with your iWork apps such as Keynote and Pages. And for the developers, Apple will likely include AI features with Xcode too, helping developers write new applications more swiftly.
