Generative AI is one of the technology trends that doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon and will soon affect your daily experience with Mac computers. Let’s take a look at what we know about Apple’s productive AI apps and explore some of the ways it could revolutionize your Mac.

What plans does Apple have for artificial intelligence?
Apple has long used artificial intelligence and machine learning in its operating systems and applications. A recent example of this is the Photos app and its smart search feature. In this app, artificial intelligence is used to recognize people (and objects) in the image and help you search for family photos, documents and places. Spotlight and the Health app also already rely heavily on AI.
But generative AI is different. Generative AIs are models of artificial intelligence that are trained on datasets and are capable of generating content. This content can be text, images, video and audio. In the meantime, you must be familiar with famous artificial intelligence models such as Gemini from Google and ChatGPT from OpenAI. Apple has devoted significant resources to developing a productive artificial intelligence and reaching the level of current industry leaders. This company has not hidden about this. In March 2024, Apple published a research paper detailing its AI training, called MM1.

When will Apple present its generative AI model?
So far, the exact release date of Apple’s artificial intelligence has not been announced, but Apple CEO Tim Cook announced months ago that the details will be announced in 2024. He noted that customers can even expect to experience these innovations this year.
The news is consistent with previous reports from reputable sources, such as Bloomberg’s Mark Gorman. Gorman predicted that iOS 18 might be the most important update in the history of the operating system. The main reason for this is the integration of the manufacturer’s artificial intelligence with Siri and many other applications. There have even been reports of Apple negotiating with companies like Google, which suggests that Apple’s artificial intelligence may not be ready when iOS 18 is released, and as a result, the company will turn to models from other companies. Of course, on the other hand, in addition to Apple’s exclusive model, this company may also use another artificial intelligence model.
Cook’s comments, while few in detail, underscored the company’s commitment to integrating artificial intelligence into its software platforms (including macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS). We’ll likely learn more about Apple’s plans for artificial intelligence at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 10, 2024.
Apple artificial intelligence how macOS transforms
In the following, we discuss the scenarios in which Apple may use these approaches for the transformation of Mac computers with artificial intelligence.
Satiety
We have to admit that the performance of Siri is not very satisfactory. Fortunately, it looks like Siri will be getting a major overhaul with iOS18 (and macOS to follow). Expect to see new features similar to what we saw after Google Assistant merged with Bard (now called Gemini).
By embedding text-generating artificial intelligence in Siri, its natural language understanding will be much more advanced. This can help Siri understand the meaning and subtleties of your requests much better than before and respond accordingly. For example, you can ask Siri to write descriptions for social networks based on your photo. Or ask Siri to read an article from Apple News and summarize it. Siri may even be able to understand the content of your messages and emails and answer your questions by considering other apps to improve responsiveness.
Pages
Taking inspiration from tools like Grammarly, Apple will likely offer features to help you write and edit. An artificial intelligence-based editing assistant in Pages can help you write better texts; From suggesting alternative word choices to correcting grammar, tone, and more.
Final Cut Pro
Adding artificial intelligence to Final Cut Pro can revolutionize the editing process by automating tasks like color correction and audio synchronization, and making creative suggestions for transitions and special effects. By adding generative AI to Final Cut Pro, you can tell the program what you want it to do and it will perform those tasks automatically. This helps Final Cut Pro compete significantly better with Adobe Premiere Pro, as Adobe has already integrated generative AI features into its products.
Numbers
In early 2024, Gemini AI will be integrated into Google Sheets, which Apple is likely looking to do the same with the Numbers app. One of the examples of using Gemini artificial intelligence in Google Sheets is to perform data analysis using natural language. No more memorizing formulas, just ask the AI what you want to do and it will find the formula for you.
Notes
The Notes application currently does not have strong organizational features. Currently, the last note you opened is moved to the top, but it would be a lot easier if the generative AI helped sort them. Similar to Pages, AI-powered content generation capabilities can be added to help brainstorm ideas, summarize key points, or turn bulleted lists into coherent sentences.
Apple Music
Apple Music lags behind its rival Spotify in terms of features, especially in terms of playlists and suggestions. Using artificial intelligence, you may be able to give the program your desired commands with simple English commands. Consider this scenario: You search for a playlist to “focus at work” and Apple Music generates a playlist for you based on your streaming history and trending music.
Apple Health
With the Health app, Apple can introduce features to better analyze and interpret your health data. That way, based on your activity levels, sleep patterns, and eating habits, you’ll get recommendations tailored to your goals and preferences. Advanced data visualization tools can help you dig deeper into your health metrics, from daily step count to heart rate.
Xcode
According to Bloomberg, Apple plans to directly compete with Microsoft’s “Copilot” feature in the new version of Xcode. This feature is currently undergoing internal testing. Suppose you have used Microsoft’s “CoPilot” on your Mac. Now imagine using a similar artificial intelligence to analyze your code, predict next steps, complete code blocks and provide intelligent suggestions to speed up the software development process. No more searching GitHub for programming solutions.
With the development of generative AI by Apple and the possibility of its integration with Google’s Gemini, we can expect to see significant AI benefits on our devices in 2024. We’re all eagerly awaiting Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June 2024, where we hope to hear more news about Apple’s plans for generative AI.
