? Apple Intelligence: What's New in The iPhone 16

Apple introduced the new iPhone 16 at its traditional It's Glowtime event, marking it the most powerful smartphone with the best camera in all Apple lineups. Most importantly, it is the first phone with an integrated AI system called Apple Intelligence.

? AI Features in The iPhone 16

Apple Intelligence required developers to create a more powerful and efficient chip for the iPhone 16 and its Pro version. The A18 chip boasts a 17% increase in bandwidth and twice the performance when working with generative AI models.

The powerful 16-core processor has turned the iPhone 16 Pro into a gaming console, capable of running hardware-intensive games like Honor of Kings World or Resident Evil.

What Can Apple Intelligence Do?
? Smart camera with ChatGPT and an updated control mechanism: it finds menus and reviews if the user photographs a restaurant sign or adds a concert to the calendar when the camera is pointed at a poster. The iPhone 16 Pro can create impressive stereoscopic photos in VR headsets thanks to its three cameras. The Cinematic mode allows for shooting realistic videos with "Hollywood-level" visualization.

? Smart sorting and creating albums from photos and videos in the iPhone 16 library.

? Enhanced Siri Functionality: Siri now engages in extended conversations, swiftly answers questions, and provides personalized recommendations for movies, music, and shopping. It can also locate photos and videos based on descriptions.

? Generation of photos, videos, and emojis based on prompts.

? Editing and writing text, including emails.

Other New Releases from Apple

? Apple Watch Series 10

? New S10 chip with a quad-core neural engine for numerous "smart functions."

? AI algorithms for speech recognition, text translation, noise suppression, and image processing.

? AirPods 4 and AirPods Max

? Machine learning enables better hands-free call handling. When talking to Siri, you can nod to say "yes" or shake your head to say "no."

? Active noise cancellation and "transparency" modes to hear street sounds and conversations without distortion. A special feature lowers the music volume when the user speaks to someone.

? A system to enhance hearing for people with hearing impairments.

? Will AI Spark the New Scientific Revolution?

Eric Horvitz, Microsoft’s Chief Science Officer, gave an interview at the recent World Science Festival about how artificial intelligence is changing the present and future of fundamental science.

Highlights 

➡️ Science mainly does pattern recognition, sorting, sifting, and diagnosing. You may have an expert over here and an expert over there, but very few people can cross a wide range of disciplines. AI systems don't know any boundaries in the kind of data they can be trained on. We're just starting to see the glimmers of what that might mean for science if these systems become the glue to bring specialties together and take us to generalizations that perhaps we would have never considered.

➡️ We see an incredible acceleration of some of the things we've done in the past, where it might take several years of analysis to months or even weeks. Especially when it comes to discovering antibiotics, as we're facing a crisis of antibiotic resistance in medicine right now. AI can now generate and scope down possibilities and then help do the end-run game to determine the best experiments, saving us time and money and increasing our longevity.

➡️ Researchers at Washington University used a computational microscope driven by AI technologies to study the proteins’ interaction and function. Biologists who looked at the results said they had no idea what those were, raising new questions and directions about how biology works.

➡️ AI systems are impressively creative and will become even more so over time. Their ability to synthesize, generalize, abstract, and compose in new ways — isn't that what most creative folks do? This will lead to a merger of neuroscience and bring us new understandings of the mind.

➡️ Combining AI and classical computational methods puts us on a discovery pipeline. The teams at Microsoft have been working on the pursuit of less expensive power batteries. AI methods helped discover them much faster. From your initial possibility of 30 million compounds, we settled on a few and then just one candidate that uses 70% less lithium. It replaces it with sodium and is much less expensive.

➡️ In humanity's history, we have had the Stone Age and the Bronze Age. And here we are, becoming masters of new materials that might change the nature of what a skyline looks like someday.

➡️ These AI tools we've created will probably have as powerful an effect on humanity as our invention of language has had in terms of how our culture evolved. The following 50 years will have a name in history. They will be transformational.
