What AI features will be available in iOS 18?

iOS 18 introduces several new AI features powered by Apple Intelligence. Here are some of the key highlights:

1. Writing Tools: These tools help users communicate more effectively by rewriting text for tone and clarity, proofreading for mistakes, and summarizing key points. This feature is integrated with system text and web views (Explore machine learning on Apple platforms).

2. Image Playground: This API allows developers to integrate image creation features into their apps effortlessly. It provides a consistent, playful, and easy-to-use experience (Platforms State of the Union).

3. Siri Enhancements: Siri will have deeper and more natural access to app data and capabilities through app intents. This will allow users to interact with apps more seamlessly using voice commands (Platforms State of the Union).

4. On-Device AI Models: Developers can import and run various AI models on-device, such as large language models or diffusion models. This includes models from open-source communities like Hugging Face (Explore machine learning on Apple platforms).

5. Generative AI Models: Apple Intelligence includes powerful generative models for creating language and images within apps. These models are designed to be efficient and privacy-focused, running directly on the device (Platforms State of the Union).

6. Object Tracking in CreateML: The CreateML app now includes an object tracking template, making it easier to train reference objects for spatial experiences on visionOS (Explore machine learning on Apple platforms).

These features are part of a broader effort to integrate AI and machine learning more deeply into iOS, providing developers with powerful tools to create intelligent and context-aware applications.
