Apple has released iOS and iPadOS 18.2 into public beta with new features like the AI emoji generator app known as Genmo, the integration of ChatGPT service with Siri, and visual search capability using iPhone 16 cameras.
The new Apple Intelligence features are now available in public beta, including Genmoi, the tool that creates images, called Image Playground. ChatGPT is freely accessible and doesn't need an account prior to use.
For public beta users now, ask Siri what something is inside their apps, or take action on something that appears on their screen. You can ask ChatGPT to write text, answer questions, create images, and much more.
You can play with 'Image Playground' to generate new images through prompts. A similar system on Genmoi is available for making your custom emojis.
The iPhone 16 offers new functionalities that allow users to open Visual Intelligence by long-pressing on the Camera Control button to look up information about objects and places in the real world using the camera view.
It seeded the first public betas for iPadOS 18.2, macOS Sequoia 15.2, and tvOS 18.2.
Before coming out with iOS 18.2, the technology firm introduced AI features such as Writing Tools as well as notification summaries using Apple Intelligence in iOS 18.1.
Apple Intelligence adds support for several more languages very quickly and will add, in April of next year, English (India) and several others.
Apple Intelligence is the personal intelligence system that with the power of Apple silicon can understand and create language and images, take action across apps and draw from personal context in order to simplify and accelerate everyday tasks while taking an extraordinary step forward for privacy in AI.
Writing Tools are richly integrated across iOS, iPadOS and macOS. The user writes almost anywhere she writes: Mail, Messages, Notes, Pages and third-party apps by rewriting, proofreading and summarizing the text.
With Rewrite, Apple Intelligence presents users with different versions of what they have written and offers them a choice in tone- professional, concise, or friendly-to the audience and task at hand. Proofread checks grammar, word choice, and sentence structure; edits with explanations are made for acceptance or review.
There are also choices to mark text and click for an overview in the form of a digestible paragraph, bulleted key points, a table, or list.
