According to Mark Gurman, Apple is gradually rolling out these Apple Intelligence features in an approach of caution. The Californian company is verifying that its cloud servers can handle the increase in traffic.
It should be noted that this first version of Apple Intelligence includes certain restrictions : THE Writing Tools are only available in American English, and transcription of audio notes as well as voice messages follows the same limitation. Apple said other languages will be gradually added over the course of the year.
Apple officially enters in the race for AI with other giants like OpenAI and its ChatGPT which can be installed anywhere, even in a calculator. Without forgetting Samsung’s Galaxy AI features or even Gemini, the solution from the Mountain View firm which has integrated Google Messages. It remains to be seen whether the general public will adopt and appreciate Apple Intelligence. A revolution is brewing in the world of telephony and all manufacturers are looking in the direction of AI.
