Apple Intelligence will not be included in the September iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 update. Instead, according to Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with internal discussions at the world's most valuable company, the new artificial intelligence features will be rolled in the weeks and months ahead.
It's crucial to note that the new AI features will miss the all-important September update, signaling that engineers need additional time to fix bugs.
Here's more from Bloomberg:
In June, Apple unveiled Apple Intelligence during the Worldwide Developers Conference. The new and improved Siri and integration of OpenAI's ChatGPT are expected to be released later this year.
Bloomberg noted that Apple is expected to roll out a number of the Apple Intelligence features through several updates from late this year through the first half of 2025.
Besides iPhone and iPad, Apple Intelligence will be featured on Macbooks that run the M1 chip or newer. Also, Vision Pro goggles are expected to receive Apple Intelligence, but a release date has yet to be announced by the company or leaked by insiders.
