A representative field where generative AI is useful for work is software development. Artificial intelligence can improve the productivity of developers managing thousands of lines of code. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Girvan, Apple also plans to use artificial intelligence to help developers.

As Gurman argues, adding AI-powered features in the next major version of Xcode, Apple’s integrated software development environment, could save developers time by using AI to write blocks of code. Apple also plans to use artificial intelligence to test the software. Gurman added that Apple engineers are experimenting with Xcode with AI capabilities in their own software projects.
Apple’s AI project also includes the next-generation operating system. Gurman said Apple Vice President Craig Federighi “has instructed his team to develop as many new AI features as possible for this year’s operating system update.” iOS 18, codenamed Crystal, is said to be “the most significant update in the iPhone’s 16-year history.” Artificial intelligence was also introduced in macOS 15, codenamed Glow.
It’s not known what AI-powered features the OS will include, but Gurman said Spotlight could be revamped with AI. Additionally, you can add a feature to automatically create music app playlists, keynote slideshows, etc. According to other recent reports, Apple purchased the web domain called “iWorld.ai” and previously created “MLLM-Guided Image Editing (MGIE)”, which can be used to edit images based on instructions entered by the user. )”, an open site the source generative artificial intelligence model was released.
Previously, Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed that the AI project was underway during the first quarter earnings announcement, saying that more details would be released “later this year.” Details may be revealed for the first time at WWDC in June. Since the AI-enabled iPhone is expected to be released in 2025, the features introduced at WWDC this year could be a demo version. However, Gurman’s report suggests that there is a sense of urgency within Apple, so it appears that AI will be released soon.
