Apple Intelligence, the revolutionary AI system coming this fall, promises to rev up your writing across all your devices.
From crafting original images to utilizing a next-generation Siri, it offers a suite of groundbreaking features that are worth the wait on iOS 18.
AI at Your Fingertips: Universally Accessible Writing Assistance
The beauty of Apple Intelligence's writing tools lies in their universal accessibility. Forget limitations to Apple apps with AI. As long as the app uses the standard text input system (which most third-party apps do), you can leverage its assistance in a variety of ways.
Struggling with an Email or Speech? AI Has Your Back
Whether you're crafting a business email that needs a professional polish, revising a school speech, or simply seeking a catchy Instagram caption, Apple's writing tools are there to help. Here's a breakdown of their capabilities:
Three preset styles:
- Friendly - Inject warmth and informality into your communication.
- Professional - Maintain a formal and polished tone.
- Concise - Streamline your message by eliminating unnecessary words.
For users who prefer a more nuanced approach, Apple Intelligence offers custom rewrite commands similar to tools like ChatGPT. Simply describe your desired change under the "Describe your change" prompt. Need your text transformed into a poem? No problem with that.
If you're unsure if your writing can effectively convey your message, don't worry about that. Apple Intelligence can analyze your text and extract key points. Use the "Summary" or "Key Points" buttons to quickly grasp the essence of your writing or someone else's, perfect for emails or long articles.
Polished Prose: Proofreading and Grammar Assistance
Similar to popular tools like Grammarly, Apple Intelligence extends beyond basic spellcheck, offering advanced proofreading suggestions, 9to5Mac writes. This feature meticulously analyzes your writing for grammatical errors while preserving your unique style. Think of it as a gentle nudge in the right direction, ensuring your writing is polished and error-free.
Composing from Scratch: Seamless ChatGPT Integration
While Apple's writing tools excel at revising existing text, they currently don't offer a text-from-scratch composition function like some other AI tools. However, Apple has a solution.
Apple Intelligence boasts seamless integration with ChatGPT, allowing you to boost its capabilities directly within the existing AI writing tools. This integration empowers you to use the chatbot for tasks outside Apple's toolset, such as composing entirely new text.
To add, it is designed for an effortless user experience. There's no need for additional installations or external accounts - everything is native within Apple Intelligence. Text composition utilizes the power of ChatGPT while maintaining a smooth workflow within the Apple ecosystem.
Currently, Apple Intelligence settings are now visible in the iOS 18 Beta 3 simulator, yet its features remain hidden, according to MacRumors.
