At WWDC 2024, Apple introduced several enhancements related to AI in Swift. The Platforms State of the Union session highlighted the integration of AI and machine learning capabilities into Apple's development ecosystem. Key points include:
-
Machine Learning Frameworks: Apple offers built-in machine learning frameworks with APIs for natural language processing, sound analysis, speech understanding, and vision intelligence. The Vision framework, in particular, has received a new Swift API, making it easier to integrate computer vision into apps (Platforms State of the Union).
-
Swift Assist: This tool is designed to enhance developer productivity by providing predictive code completions in Xcode, marking the beginning of integrating more intelligence into Apple's development tools (Platforms State of the Union).
-
Vision Framework Enhancements: The Vision framework now supports Swift concurrency and has a streamlined syntax for Swift, allowing developers to write more performant apps (Discover Swift enhancements in the Vision framework).
-
Machine Learning on Apple Platforms: Apple continues to push the boundaries of machine learning and AI, providing APIs powered by Apple models and frameworks to deploy AI models directly on devices (Explore machine learning on Apple platforms).
These updates reflect Apple's commitment to integrating AI and machine learning into its development tools and frameworks, making it easier for developers to create intelligent and efficient applications.

A Swift Tour: Explore Swift’s features and design
Learn the essential features and design philosophy of the Swift programming language. We’ll explore how to model data, handle errors, use protocols, write concurrent code, and more while building up a Swift package that has a library, an HTTP server, and a command line client. Whether you’re just beginning your Swift journey or have been with us from the start, this talk will help you get the most out of the language.
Discover Swift enhancements in the Vision framework
The Vision Framework API has been redesigned to leverage modern Swift features like concurrency, making it easier and faster to integrate a wide array of Vision algorithms into your app. We’ll tour the updated API and share sample code, along with best practices, to help you get the benefits of this framework with less coding effort. We’ll also demonstrate two new features: image aesthetics and holistic body pose.
