Because it's grounded in your personal information and context, and can retrieve data from across your apps and reference the content on your screen, Apple Intelligence is positioned to be yourpersonal assistant.
Apple emphasized thesafety and privacy precautions built into Apple Intelligence, particularly for on-device intelligence processing. The company touted the security of Apple's silicon, A17 Pro, and its M family of chips (M1, M2, M3, and M4).
For tasks that are too large for on-device processing and need to be completed into the cloud, Apple unveiledPrivate Cloud Compute, which protects users' privacy by running on servers specially created using Apple Silicon. When users make requests, Apple Intelligence first tests on-device capability, but calls on Private Cloud Compute if the task requires more compute power. Apple reiterated that user data is never stored or sold to external parties.
Siri finally got the AI makeover it deserves, first with a new look: when tapped, a light wraps around the edges of your screen. Siri can now better understand users, even if they stutter, due to more advanced natural language processing (NLP).

Because it has in-depth product knowledge, Siri can answer questions about functionality on iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

Apple also confirmed its partnership with OpenAI by integrating ChatGPT with Siri, which can send a request to ChatGPT for help with a user's permission. For example, if you ask Siri for assistance on a task it deems ChatGPT could answer better, Siri will suggest you use ChatGPT instead. ChatGPT's writing capabilities can also be leveraged within certain writing tasks.
Users can access ChatGPT via this integration for free, and their data will not be logged by OpenAI. ChatGPT Plus users can connect their subscriptions to access more advanced features.
