On June 11, a wave of excitement hit as reports emerged that Apple's iPhones might soon feature call recording—a function that notifies participants when activated. As clarified by Apple's customer service, while iOS 18 indeed introduces the capability to record and import live calls, detailed protocols about notification remain unspecified until the official release.
In the early hours of June 11, the 2024 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) commenced, focusing on significant software updates including iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS 15, and visionOS 2. The spotlight shone on Apple's innovative strides in AI technology, particularly through a newly announced partnership with OpenAI to integrate ChatGPT into Apple systems.
Key Announcements from WWDC 2024:
Apple's collaboration with OpenAI allows users to directly utilize ChatGPT in their systems, linking existing accounts without creating new ones.
The debut of the "Apple Intelligence" suite, capable of prioritizing notifications, summarizing texts, and generating images, demonstrates a robust enhancement in AI functionalities across Apple devices.
Vision Pro's operating system, visionOS 2, employs machine learning to render spatial and 3D images.
The Vision Pro headset is set for release in China, Japan, and Singapore, with a starting price of 29,999 RMB, available for pre-order on June 14 and sale on June 28.
The introduction of the Calculator app on iPad.
macOS 15 features an "iPhone Mirror" function that allows iPhone operations via Mac.
Apple introduces the concept of "Private Cloud Computing" with dedicated servers powered by Apple chips, ensuring data privacy and security.
Satellite SMS features are now available for iMessage and text applications.
The conference highlighted the transformative potential of generative AI with "Apple Intelligence," illustrating its functionality with hypothetical scenarios like adjusting schedules to avoid conflicts with personal events. Additionally, Siri's performance is notably enhanced, integrating seamlessly with various applications, including ChatGPT.
Sam Altman, co-founder of OpenAI, expressed his enthusiasm about the integration on social media, indicating a significant step forward in AI capabilities within Apple devices.
Despite the groundbreaking announcements, Apple's investors reacted tepidly with a 1.91% drop in stock price just hours after the event, contrasting sharply with Nvidia's recent surge to a $3 trillion market cap. This juxtaposition underscores the growing momentum of AI development against the challenges faced by consumer electronics in continuous innovation.
