According to the latest article by well-known tech journalist Mark Gurman, some Apple (AAPL.US) employees believe that the company is lagging behind by about two years in the development of artificial intelligence. Gurman stated that internal research at Apple shows that ChatGPT is about 25% more accurate than Apple's voice assistant Siri and can answer more questions. He also mentioned, "Some Apple employees believe that, so far, the company's generative AI technology is at least two years behind industry leaders."

Furthermore, Gurman mentioned that by 2026, Apple Intelligence will run on every Apple device with a screen, giving Apple a significant advantage in catching up with competitors by quickly pushing new features to a massive number of devices.

Apple introduced Apple Intelligence at this year's WWDC24 conference in June. The core of Apple Intelligence lies in its powerful data processing and contextual awareness capabilities. It can deeply understand various data on the device, including photos, emails, messages, etc., and provide personalized intelligent services to users based on this information. In addition to basic data processing capabilities, Apple Intelligence also has strong learning and reasoning abilities. It can continuously learn user habits, understand user intentions and needs, and provide more precise and thoughtful services accordingly.

Earlier reports mentioned that Apple Intelligence features will be launched on October 28th with iOS 18.1. This update will bring the first wave of Apple Intelligence features to iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series users, including a new Siri interface, faster response times, writing tools for rewriting, summarizing, and proofreading text, notification summaries, and photo removal (eliminating unwanted elements from images). More advanced Apple Intelligence features will be introduced in subsequent updates
