Apple's generative AI push includes Xcode tools, auto-summarizing features in apps

Apple's efforts to catch up with competitors in the field of generative AI will include tools for creating apps in Xcode, as well as other additions to its productivity app suite.The rapid growth and massive impact of ChatGPT and the work of tech rivals like Google improving their AI efforts has left observers with the impression that Apple is behind the curve for the technology. However, Apple could end up introducing some of its efforts to the public and developers by the summer.According to Mark Gurman in the 'Power On' newsletter for Bloomberg, Apple is planning to show off its work at WWDC in June, with changes made as part of iOS 18.The features list will include elements such as adding auto-summarizing and auto-compete tools to core apps from the iPhone maker, including Pages and Keynote. Apps like Apple Music will also gain AI elements, for example by automating playlist creation, while Siri will be receiving a 'big overhaul.' Rumor Score:
