Apple Intelligence Reportedly More Than Two Years Behind ...
Apple is reportedly gearing up to bring artificial intelligence (AI) features to a wide range of its devices. The Apple Intelligence platform is set to play a crucial role in the upcoming iPhone 16 series and the recently launched iPad mini. These AI features are expected to make their debut on October 28, offering users functionalities like Writing Tools, notification summaries, and more.
AI Gap with Competitors
Despite Apple's ambitious plans, a recent report suggests that the company's AI technology could be lagging behind its competitors. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the Apple Intelligence features may be more than two years behind rivals such as OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. The report, based on insights from unnamed Apple employees, indicates that Apple's AI capabilities, including Siri, are less accurate and responsive compared to leading industry solutions like ChatGPT and Gemini.
Potential Impact on Sales
This delay in AI development could potentially impact the sales of the new iPhone models and iPad mini, which have been heavily marketed for their advanced AI capabilities. If Apple fails to bridge the gap with its competitors, users may be less inclined to upgrade to the latest devices or utilize AI-driven features.
Advantages and Challenges
Despite the setback, Apple has an advantage in terms of quickly deploying AI features across a wide range of devices due to its existing hardware stack. While the company initially announced AI features for a limited set of devices, including select iPhone and iPad models, it now plans to roll out these capabilities to all new iPhone 16 models, the latest iPad lineup, and Mac devices available via the Apple Store. By 2026, Apple aims to integrate Apple Intelligence into almost every screen-equipped device.
