iPhone 16 Series: AI Features
Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, has hinted at groundbreaking advancements in generative AI for the iPhone 16 series. The company is reportedly working on enhancing Siri’s capabilities and integrating AI features into iOS 18.
Siri 2.0
The most anticipated improvement is the upgrade to Siri. Siri has always been criticised as a step behind Google Assistant and Alexa in terms of intelligence. However, with the integration of large language models, Siri 2.0 could be a significant leap forward. The iOS 17.4 beta revealed references to a framework called Siri Summarization that makes calls to the ChatGPT API. This suggests that Siri 2.0 could summarize text, answer questions, and integrate with the Messages app.
AI-Enhanced Apps
Apple is also rumored to be working on integrating AI into its own iOS applications. This could include AI-enhanced image and video editing, content-aware suggestions, and image recognition. Another interesting feature could be the automatic creation of Apple Music playlists and slides in Keynote.
Comparison with Google Pixel AI
Google Pixel devices, particularly the Pixel 8, are known for their advanced AI features. The Pixel 8 boasts features like Magic Editor for image editing, Magic Audio Eraser for removing background noise, Best Take for changing subjects’ faces in group photos, and Recorder for adding AI-generated summaries to transcripts. While Siri 2.0 seems to be catching up with Google Assistant, it remains to be seen how Apple’s AI-enhanced apps will compare with Google’s AI-powered features.
Comparison with Samsung Galaxy AI
Samsung Galaxy devices also offer a range of AI features. These include Live Translate for real-time voice and text translations, Chat Assist for improving writing style in messages, Note Assist for summarizing and organizing notes, and Photo Assist for AI-based photo and video editing. It will be interesting to see how the iPhone 16 series’ AI features stack up against these.
Note: As we approach the official release date, more details about the iPhone 16 AI features are expected to emerge. Kindly followup for more information.
