In this episode Neil and Sam dive into the exciting world of Apple's latest AI advancements unveiled at the Apple Developer Conference. They explore how these cutting-edge updates, including Apple Intelligence, promise to revolutionize the user experience across iPhones, MacBooks, and iPads while maintaining a strong focus on privacy. As avid Apple enthusiasts, Neil and Sam break down the top seven updates, shedding light on how Apple’s deliberate and thoughtful integration of AI aims to enhance functionality without compromising user data security. Tune in to discover how these innovations could transform your daily tech interactions and streamline your law practice.

Key Takeaways from Neil and Sam:

• Apple Intelligence: Apple introduced "Apple Intelligence" (AI), an advanced system that knows everything about you while keeping your data private and stored only on your iPhone. Apple states "your data is never stored" on external servers and is used solely for your requests. This contrasts with companies like Google, which extensively collect user data. Siri enhancements include better understanding, typing like a chatbot, on-screen awareness, and eventually controlling your iPhone upon request.
• Integration of ChatGPT with Apple Devices: ChatGPT, now officially integrated with Apple devices, marks a significant collaboration as Apple joined forces with its competitor Microsoft. This partnership arose because Apple had not developed its own language model, and integrating ChatGPT prevents them from falling behind in the AI race, allowing users to benefit from one of the best LLMs natively on Apple devices​​.
• AI Writing Tools: Apple introduced new AI writing tools across Mac apps that utilize AI to write emails, summarize text, rewrite content, proofread, and suggest responses and tones, enhancing productivity and communication efficiency​​.
• AI-Generated Emojis and Text Effects: "Genmoji" allows users to create AI-generated emojis and text effects. This feature, which takes user descriptions to generate new emojis, elevates the emoji experience significantly​​.
• AI-Powered Image Editing: AI capabilities now include the ability to clean up images and remove people from photos, offering enhanced photo editing functionalities​​.
• AI-Powered Call Transcripts and Summaries: The AI-powered call transcript feature transcribes calls, summarizes them, and enables sharing across apps and emails. It also allows for summarizing audio recordings and voice memos​​.
• iPhone Mirroring on Mac (Sam's favorite update): You can now mirror your iPhone on your Mac. This feature enhances the existing convenience of using your phone’s text on your laptop, marking a significant improvement in user experience​​.

"I think what sets Apple apart is they don't ever jump into anything in a rush or haphazardly. They think it all through and they think it through their entire ecosystem." — Neil Tyra

"It's the part of AI that I think will be most impactful when Siri is able to do things for you and control the iPhone when you ask it to do something. So it's kind of AI plus actions being done." — Sam Mollaei
