AI TOP STORY

Why Your IPhone Doesn’t Have AI Features Yet

Apple’s Cautious AI Rollout Explained

Apple isn’t racing to dominate the AI landscape, and that’s no accident. At WWDC, the company confirmed that its major Siri upgrade won’t arrive until late 2026. Instead of trying to match competitors feature for feature, Apple is choosing a slower, more deliberate path to integrate AI into its ecosystem. That strategy raised eyebrows, with shares dipping more than 2.5% during the keynote as investors weighed the cost of moving cautiously in such a fast-paced market.

One of Apple’s biggest challenges is its commitment to on-device processing. Unlike Google and others, which rely on cloud-based models, Apple wants its AI tools to run directly on your iPhone to preserve user privacy. But that choice comes with technical limits. Many existing devices, still running on 6 GB of RAM, simply can’t handle the new Apple Intelligence features. For Apple, this means ramping up hardware capabilities in future releases before fully rolling out its vision for AI.

There have also been internal hurdles. Leadership changes within Apple’s AI division, budget cuts for critical GPU resources, and a pivot from Nvidia’s powerful chips to less efficient alternatives have all contributed to delays. These decisions reflect a company trying to balance innovation with its signature focus on user trust and product stability.

Meanwhile, competitors are pressing ahead. Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT are evolving quickly, grabbing headlines and user attention - even with Apple pointing out flaws in these systems. Recent research from Apple engineers highlighted how rival models tend to “quit” when faced with complex logic problems. It’s a subtle way of reinforcing Apple’s position as a perfectionist, intent on releasing AI features that meet its own high standards.

To close the gap, Apple is rebuilding its foundation from the ground up. Future devices are expected to include more memory to support AI tools, and a Foundation Models API is being rolled out to developers to encourage new AI-powered apps. Instead of flashy, half-baked launches, Apple is betting that users will appreciate a polished experience that respects their privacy and feels seamlessly integrated into the Apple ecosystem.

ONE QUICK AI HACK

Auto-Generate Strategy Presentations With ChatGPT Agent

With ChatGPT’s new AI agents, you can instantly turn folders of market research, strategy docs, and templates into polished presentations. Perfect for when you need to align teams fast or pull insights together without spending hours formatting slides.

This hack saves time on:
Building client strategy decks from scratch
Consolidating research into shareable formats
Repurposing existing documents into engaging presentations

Here’s how to set it up

1) Gather Your Files
Put all relevant materials into a single folder: market research, roadmaps, and a presentation template (PowerPoint, Google Slides, or PDF).

2) Connect Your Storage
Upload the folder to your preferred cloud storage like Box, Google Drive, or Dropbox and ensure your AI agent has permissions to access these files.

3) Give a Clear Prompt, like:
“Please generate a strategy presentation for [Your Project Name] using the relevant documents in [Folder Name]. Follow the structure in the provided presentation template and only use content from this folder.”

4) Review & Refine
Once the agent drafts your slides, scan for tone, formatting, and accuracy. You can tweak sections or ask the agent to rewrite specific parts for clarity.

5) Export and Share
Export the deck directly from ChatGPT (or your connected tool) and share it with your team or client.

Pro Tip: Include clear file names and a well-structured template to help the agent organise the content logically.
