Apple Intelligence is deeply integrated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. It harnesses the power of Apple silicon to understand and create language and images, take action across apps, and draw from personal context to simplify and accelerate everyday tasks.
This is really terrifying:
With context on what is on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and screen awareness, Siri can also make inferences from things you've gotten in your email, photos in your library, or messages. Apple shared an example of Siri being capable of adding an address to a contact card after a friend shared it in a text message.
I’m still an Apple slave/cuck I was itching to get the iPhone 15 but my current model works fine.
Apple makes it so hard to leave. It’s so easy and convenient especially when combined with iPad. Also all the friends and family have iPhones and you get addicted to the blue bubble messaging
Plus Bitcoin developers make some cool products and applications for iOS
I just had the exact conversation with my wife. No way she's giving up her iPad.
Interesting, in my case the impossibility to copy files from my computer to an ipad with a cable was a real deal-braker. I ended up giving my IPad to a friend.
Also the inability to just push our own application with a tool like ADB. Incredibly frustrating.
The main selling point for me is the quality of the camera. The tablet itself also doesn't break after 1 year (although it is also the case for Android tablets priced +$300). My wife had here iphone becoming very slow after an upgrade, plus the battery life is terrible.
If the camera is a deal-braker you could try a GoPro, it is a really good camera.
Pixels have good cameras. Why not Pixel tablet + GrapheneOS
Does it have the same features like copy paste?
Could you rephrase the question? Not sure I understand, copy paste from where to where?
Yeah I can select some text from my iPhone and select copy. Then go to my iPad and select paste. This makes working on mobile to tablet very convenient
On Android with KDE connect we can do the same.
Yes indeed, the camera is pretty decent. But the camera I had the opportunity to try on an iphone was far better (I think it was IPhone X-something or 12).
If the camera is a deal-braker I would recommend a GoPro. I have one, it is relatively cheap and is far better than IPhones, and we can copy files freely to a computer, and we can use nd filters on it to take good pictures as well.
Wait, I thought you were talking about tablets. For phone cameras, I would say current gen pixels are better than current gen iphones. e.g. pixel8 vs iphone15
I was thinking about IOS devices in general actually, since I had an IPad and have used IPhones for testing tasks with Safari at work.
Thank you for your feedback for Pixel8, it is good to know!
I only have Pixel 4 and 6 and the camera is not great compared to the IPhone I tried (and IPad).
In slight fairness:
As with so many privacy things, of course, the issue is less what I may do on an Apple product than what someone I'm connected with does. If I get an iPhone (which I'm not planning on), I can tell Siri not to use AI on my messages, but I can't tell Siri on someone else's phone to ignore messages I send there.
(All that said, the entire decision here seems to be surprisingly at odds with how Apple usually does things; licensing ChatGPT feels like an acknowledgment they they're nowhere near any of Meta/MS/Google here. Last time I can recall Apple doing something like this was when they licensed Internet Explorer back in '97, and it took five years before they finally released Safari.)
Apple "intelligence" and Microsoft "recall" and we are ready for new edition of 1984 :-)
For your own safety of course.
Very true
Has been for a while now. Still a lot of normies might see it as a bonus.
Everyone with apple products now will be forced to “upgrade” into it too.
I hope you're wrong about the normies. I know a bunch of young normie Apple users who already are "weirded out" by facial recognition and won't use it. Of course, convenience may win again in the end.
I think this is the main issue.
They like the convenience, and they dont understand the freedom they will give up to have it.
Eventually apple might become a surveillance company, with all of its faces stored in its databanks.
Siggy why don't you let me live in my bubble where I say "everything is fine. I don't need to give up my iphone and ipad"?
I live in a house full of Apple products. I sit huddled in the corner with my graphene pixel pretending I'm safe.
I understand you very well. I am recently feeling a bit down in regard to my privacy. I know I am being tracked by surrounding devices that I don't control. :/
I never talk to Siri but I am not sure that protects me at all.
We are surrounded by thousands of apps to which we give permissions. It could be Google or Alexa or any other app. All are dangerous.
This was eventually coming from all major players as Google, Microsoft and Amazon, but worse. It could have been worse like the rumors and fake news say they wrapped ChatGPT and send your data outside.
It's good to link how Foundation LLM works:

The good news many developers are waking up, planning to onboard a Framework laptop with Linux using Omakub as DHH, my MacBook everything else without the sensitive data.
GrapheneOS solves this
I'm replying on mine😀

Why would anyone want these features? Just seems like a punt after the vision pro failure
Yep, this is really 1st time when I watched the presentation and was happy this feature will not be available on my iphone as I don't have a pro model. We need a Daylight Computer version of a phone.
Apple and google.
Siri and alexa are scary!
This is extremely frightening!
I still use an iPhone. I’ve got Siri and facial recognition turned off as much as possible but it annoys me that Apple still seem to find ways to intrude regardless. I’m getting rid soon.
Thank goodness I'm not tempted to buy Apple products! 😂
