Of the many still unavailable Apple Intelligence features that have been marketed by the company, one in particular seemed quite promising: Visual Intelligence. The idea was that you could point your brand newat anything you see and it would tell you all about it. Turns out, this Visual Intelligence is just an API call to Google or ChatGPT. In short, it does nothing new.insider Mark Gurman says that this feature probably took Apple around a week to implement at most.
While Apple has marketed Visual Intelligence as this amazing next step in the usefulness and practicality of an iPhone, it’s just a front for services you already had access to. Apple Intelligence does no heavy lifting here, at least for now. That may change whenever the revamped Siri and other AI features eventually roll out next year.Of course, there’s nothing inherently wrong with resorting to existing services but I do think it should have been more transparent.
If one of the iPhone 16’s most marketed features is something anyone on any platform could have done, it gives me even less hope for the remaining features awaiting release. Especially after this past year where Apple has had.2 comes out. That will definitely make Apple Intelligence a little more enticing — and store demos easier for Apple employees — but it will hardly come close to what we’ve been promised.
