All of the Apple Intelligence Features Not Coming in iOS 18.1

jonnysods said:
Honestly the pressure on the Apple devs to get this stuff out within a year is pretty intense. Even with a full complement of staff, the testing time required is short, and we are seeing it with the slow rollouts and bugs. Forcing the OS to be part of the sales pitch to sell hardware I think has caused a compromise in quality. I love new things and I enjoy watching the OS ecosystem morph, but I think this latest release is the buggiest since iOS13.

If only Apple had taken AI more serious like other companies...

Now it's all the rage they are caught out and rushing to keep up.

I’m confused. In the title you say that ALL of the Intelligence features are NOT coming in 18.1, but then in the first paragraph you say that 18.1 will include SOME of the features. So which is it? ALL of the Intelligence features are NOT coming in 18.1, or NOT ALL the features are coming in 18.1?

Well, no, Captain Pedantic.

Consider : “All of the American Presidents Not Assassinated”. This infers we know some American presidents were assassinated. Similarly, “All of the Apple Intelligence Features Not coming in iOS 18.1” infers we know some Apple Intelligence features are.

"iPhone 6 with apple intelligence"? What are these carriers smoking? Did iPhone 6 ever get any apple intelligence features ie did IOS 12.5 ever get any of those features ? I'm not shire but I doubt it, unless I missed something, it must be running in the cloud at any rate because the iphone6 certainly did not have the chips capable of running running them on device

I meant 16 but somehow my iPhone 14 didn’t quite get that using autocorrect

AI still feels gimmicky, feels like they replaced the word algorithm with AI. I have the chaptgpt app on my phone, it feels like it's enough for what I need. Getting a little

When one sees the features that they’re building in that quite literally do nothing except consume water, energy and cpu cycles one realised that one can get away with an iPhone 1 and really not be too badly off. The more I look at this the more inclined I am to put off upgrading. I was a serial upgrader. This year I’ve said no as I didn’t see anything advantageous in the upgrades worth the money. I can see them focussing more and more on nonsense like the Siri glow and other rubbish I never use. Give me a phone I need to charge once a week with a big screen and a Siri type thing that actually doesn’t mishear and doesn’t say sorry I can’t do that and I’ll be happy with decent sound and memory so I can store lots of music on it (I live in a remote area so phone service means I can’t guarantee to get Spotify etc. plus I hate subscriptions).

Make an iPhone where the body is as thick as the cameras and you solve the battery issues. iPhone 17 mega, with three day battery life, but no we get an even thinner 17 Air with less battery.
 
Makes far more sense to just wait and buy an iPhone 17 with a proper amount of ram and true battery improvements.

Gotta wonder what Apple's developers have been doing over the last year and month since these features weren't ready at launch.

Certainly not fixing bugs. My guess is that Apple management has changed directions so many times that what we will be left with will be a hot mess.

I expect the emails to be sorted into the following fixed categories:
  1. those that belong to the Emperor,
  2. ROT13-encoded ones,
  3. those based on an email template,
  4. those with an even number of paragraphs,
  5. mermails,
  6. belated ones,
  7. ones Cc'd by mistake,
  8. those included in the present classification,
  9. those with inconsistent font sizes,
  10. innumerable ones,
  11. those you thought you had sent but never even drafted,
  12. others,
  13. those written while eating an apple,
  14. those that from a long way off look like bird droppings.

You missed the fact that it will also filter those emails with language that Apple does not approve of.
 
I've seen a lot of adds Apple advertising iPhone 16 with apple intelligence, but as of right now there's no Apple Intelligence on iOS 18. Isn't that misleading and false advertising?

You may be thinking about this in very general terms. I agree that the training is easy, but Apple has very clear goals for its art styles in this feature and they likely want to get it spot-on before releasing, like most of the AI features.

Missed the second half of my post where I mention guide rails and the like. An image generator is easy to run. A good enough and responsible generator is a whole different league!

Aren't these also on-device? The local LLM already leverages the neural engine - and there's Stable Diffusion UIs in the App Store that do so as well. I guess we won't know until they land in Beta though.
 
I don't mind Apple taking their time to make sure things are polished and work well. I do mind them demoing stuff allegedly launching with iOS18 when it's nowhere near being finished.

I think Apple need to learn that when you announce things too early it looks bad when you can't deliver. You'd think they'd have learned from AirPower not to announce things too soon...

I haven’t ran the beta nor seen any reporting on this specifically. Have you seen a toggle in Mail prefs for the categorization?
Click to expand...

That's not in 18.1, so no one knows for sure.

As of now though, Apple Intelligence has a central toggle in settings. Some features, like summaries, can be turned off on a case by case basis. That said, none of the AI stuff in Photos can be toggled on and off, only hidden, so who's to say what it'll look like for Mail.
 
Lol at anyone who bought an iPhone 16 thinking they were getting Apple intelligence. By the time AI is released and actually working properly, the iPhone 17 will be released.

IMO Its because the new iPhone sucks and the software wasn't (isn't) even ready for it
Click to expand...
It doesn’t suck. It’s their best ever phone and it’s better than the 15 pro max. Just not sufficiently better to warrant the cost if you’ve already got the 15 pro max. Also as for the software iOS 18’s fine. I just have no use at all for the ai and am not prepared to pay a penny or lose 1 second of battery life for it. I quite literally don’t care whether it appears in iOS 18, 19 or 100.
