Chapter 1
Apple unveils Apple Intelligence at WWDC, distancing itself from the common term AI and giving it a unique twist with consumer-focused features.
- Apple Intelligence is AI tailored for Apple devices to enhance the user experience.
- It's considered the best consumer AI on the market, with a unique approach that's hard to replicate.
- Apple Intelligence integrates with various Apple devices, such as iPhones, tablets, and Macs.
Chapter 2
Apple Intelligence improves text interaction by providing proofreading, rewriting, and summarization capabilities across first and third-party apps.
- Devices can proofread, rewrite, or summarize text, working with both first-party and third-party apps.
- Examples include rewriting paragraphs in different tones or summarizing large texts.
- Although not entirely new, these features tie into a larger ecosystem.
Chapter 3
Apple's AI brings two new image generation features: Gen Emojis and Image Playground, allowing for the creation of personalized emojis and custom images.
- Gen Emojis use text prompts and profile photos to create personalized emojis for messaging.
- Image Playground lets users create images from scratch or using existing photos, all processed on device.
- Despite being playful, the quality and realism of images are limited compared to competitors.
Chapter 4
Siri's overhaul includes a local large language model (LLM) that performs context-based actions on device or via the cloud when complexity demands it.
- Siri can now interact with context from emails and messages to perform various actions.
- It utilizes local processing first, resorting to the cloud when tasks are too complex.
- For creative questions, Siri can suggest using ChatGPT for more suitable answers.
Chapter 5
Apple emphasizes privacy with secure data handling for Apple Intelligence, using private Cloud compute and stringent measures to protect user data.
- Apple is committed to privacy and has built secure data centers for cloud-based AI tasks.
- Requests deemed too complex for local processing are sent to the cloud with security measures in place.
- Data is not retained post-processing, and Apple's approach is auditable for additional transparency.
