Am I understanding correctly that some AI will run on Apple servers? So not completely offline AI.

If so that's somewhat disappointing given how much AI power Apple hardware packs.

What's a promise from Sam Altman worth, again?

While I think it's cool and I appreciate Apple crafting better stories on why this is helpful, I still think for the everyday person, they won't really care if it's AI or not.

Agreed! And the UI seemed pretty focused on not really clarifying too much; I think they just mentioned AI a lot since it was WWDC.

They did a lot of work for this release, and the number of integrations is beyond what I expected. In a few years time you might not need to hold your phone at all and just get everything done with voice - kind of cool, actually.

Auto transcripts for calls (with permission) is another feature I really liked.

I was a little surprised to see/hear no mention of inaccuracies, but for ChatGPT they did show the "Check for important facts" notice.

This on-device, private cloud compute, and tight hardware-software integration take may be first useful for all genAI we’ve seen so far. Apple may have actually nailed this one. Edit: except for image generation. That one sucks

> Edit: except for image generation. That one sucks Say more? it's just the media thing about intellectual property rights?

I was referring to the limitations of the feature which can only generate images in three pre-canned cartoony styles
