There's a danger that before long, the stuff Apple will take ages to implement into their devices will seem dated compared to the state of the art less encumbered players will be rolling out.
I felt that a few times watching them demo image generation and contextual conversations.
Slap on the face all Cloud based LLM providers!
I thought it was underwhelming. The fact that integration with ChatGPT is not seamless pours cold water over it. Siri will seek your permission each time before passing the question to ChatGPT. I can avoid that step by using ChatGPT directly.

I asked up thread and people apparently have concerns about the IP and think that AI images often lack taste.
They said the models can scale to "private cloud compute" based on Apple Silicon which will be ensured by your device to run "publicly verifiable software" in order to guarantee no misuse of your data.
I wonder if their server-side code will be open-source? That'd be positively surprising. Curious to see how this evolves.
Anyway, overall looks really really cool. If it works as marketed, then it will be an easy "shut up and take my money". Siri seems to finally be becoming what it was meant to be (I wonder if they're piggy-backing on top of the Shortcuts Actions catalogue to have a wide array of possible actions right away), and the image and emoji generation features that integrate with Apple Photos and other parts of the system look _really_ cool.
It seems like it will require M1+ on Macs/iPads, or an iPhone 15 Pro.
I wonder if this will become a paid feature or part of iCloud+ later on. Or do they expect it to be mostly on device models driven?
