Apple has enabled its Apple Intelligence feature by default on supported iPhones, iPads, and Macs with the latest software updates. This move signifies a significant step towards wider adoption of the AI suite, but Apple has also rolled back the news summarization feature after it generated inaccurate information.
Apple has released a trio of software update s for its iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices, bringing a notable shift in the accessibility of its Apple Intelligence feature. The updates, iOS 18.3, iPadOS 18.3, and macOS Sequoia 15.3, instantly activate Apple Intelligence for users with compatible devices, marking a significant step towards a wider adoption of the AI suite. This move comes after a period of testing and limited rollout, allowing Apple to refine the feature and manage server capacity.
Apple Intelligence, a cornerstone of Apple's strategy to differentiate its products in the AI-driven market, has been gradually integrated into iPhones and other devices. While previously users were prompted to enable Apple Intelligence during device setup, the new updates streamline the process by defaulting the feature on with the latest software installation. This expanded accessibility aims to expose a larger user base to Apple Intelligence's capabilities, which include text rewriting, image generation, and concise summarization of lengthy emails and message threads.However, the rollout is not without its challenges. Apple has notably chosen to disable Apple Intelligence for news and entertainment apps following concerns about its accuracy. In December, Apple Intelligence was found to distort news headlines and generate inaccurate information, leading to instances like a BBC sports notification falsely stating that Rafael Nadal had come out as gay. To enhance transparency, Apple Intelligence notifications will now be displayed in italics, clearly distinguishing them from regular app notifications. This move acknowledges the potential pitfalls of AI-generated content and underscores Apple's commitment to responsible development and deployment of its AI technologies
