Apple reveals enhanced artificial intelligence in latest iOS update

6 months ago


Apple is introducing more artificial intelligence to the iPhone and iPad, with devices now able to understand conversations and recognise faces in photos.

The technology giant’s virtual assistant Siri has been given a major update that now means it can use machine learning to predict words you plan to use in text conversations as well as find faces in your photo albums.

Apple CEO Tim Cook opened the keynote at the Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco by paying tribute to the victims of the Orlando shootings, saying Apple offered its “deepest sympathies to everyone whose lives were touched by the violence”.

He then led a moment’s silence before the event began.

As part of the iOS 10 update revealed at the event, it was also announced that Apple Music, the firm’s streaming service, was getting a complete re-design.

The app has been previously criticised for being too complicated to use. Now music has been reorganised.

It was also revealed the company is renaming its desktop software macOS, as well as adding Siri to its desktop computer software for the first time.

Users will also now be able to pay for items using Apple Pay from their desktop computer.
