Apple announced on Monday its new “Apple Intelligence” tool and a series of other updates is now available for its iPhone, iPad and Mac users. The company released iOS 18.1, an update that includes the company’s artificial intelligence, called Apple Intelligence, for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 Pro. It also released software updates for iPad and Mac with Apple Intelligence, and will also be in its latest release on Apple’s macOS Sequoia operating system.

Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a company release: “Apple Intelligence introduces a new era for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, delivering brand-new experiences and tools that will transform what our users can accomplish.” Cook added that Apple Intelligence is generative AI in a way “that only Apple can deliver  .. [the company] is “incredibly excited about its ability to enrich our users’ lives. Apple Intelligence builds on years of innovation in AI and machine learning to put Apple’s generative models at the core of our devices, giving our users a personal intelligence system that is easy to use.”

Apple said that customers will be able to refine language by rewriting, proofreading and summarizing text virtually everywhere they write including Mail, Messages, Notes, Pages and third-party apps, adding that it has partnered with ChatGPT creator OpenAI and its new Writing Tools will be available and also takes advantage of AI.

Monday’s release also included improvements to Siri, including a new look that makes the entire screen glow around the phone’s edges. Siri can answer questions about Apple products, including troubleshooting, and has more natural voices.  Another update with ChatGPT integration and image-generation abilities is also scheduled for later this year as part of iOS 18.2.

Tto install and use Apple Intelligence, customers need an iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max or any iPhone 16 model. To download iOS 18.1, go to Settings > General > Software Update. To sign up for the Apple Intelligence waitlist, go to Settings > Apple Intelligence and Siri > Join the Apple Waitlist.
