Apple and AI together on stage at WWDC24

The next update of the iPhone operating system is set to feature for the first time AI features and functionalities. This is on the back of the recent talks of Apple tying up with Google to bake in the Gemini AI model into the OS.

Mirroring Samsung’s Galaxy AI, Apple may be including generative AI features via on-device processing. The event is also where we can preview the next iPhone, as WWDC is usually where Apple will give sneak peeks into how the next iPhone will look like via new software updates on stage.

Other expected announcements include RCS support in Messages and UI design changes. We should also see hints of the next iPad, Apple Watch and Apple TV on stage. Additionally, we should see additional feature additions for the Vision Pro announced during the event.

According to Susan Prescott, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations: "WWDC is all about sharing new ideas and providing our amazing developers with innovative tools and resources to help them make something even more wonderful.”
