Inaccurate Reports on Apple’s AI Software Announcement at Next Week’s Event
Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, was recently misunderstood in a CNBC story regarding the announcement of AI software at the company’s upcoming hardware event. The full quote in context does not actually imply an AI software announcement at next week’s event.
While Cook did mention an “exciting product announcement” next week and the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) next month, it appears that Apple is actually infusing its silicon with AI readiness. It is now expected that Apple will unveil its AI software innovations in June at the WWDC event.
Initially, it was reported that Apple would discuss AI at its iPad event next week. However, Cook has been hyping up investors about Apple’s upcoming AI announcements all year. He teased out that AI news would come later this year and even mentioned breaking ground on generative AI in 2024.
Apple’s upcoming event is scheduled for Tuesday, May 7, at 10 a.m. ET, with WWDC set for Monday, June 10. It seems that while Apple is making strides in AI technology, the specific announcements may not be as soon as initially reported. Stay tuned for more updates on Apple’s advancements in AI software.
