The Apple Intelligence features were recently introduced in a preview of the iOS 18.1 Developer Beta 1 update, along with beta updates for iPadOS and macOS Sequoia. These features include AI-powered Writing Tools that promise to enhance the writing experience for users. A demo of the Writing Tools was shared by a user who claimed that the AI was able to proofread a 2,203-word document in less than two minutes on an M2-powered iPad Pro.
The demo video posted by user AppleLeaker (@LeakerApple) showcased features such as Proofread, Rewrite (with Friendly, Professional, and Concise tones), Summary, and more. The user demonstrated the proofreading of a lengthy Wikipedia article about OLED, claiming that the AI tool completed the task in under two minutes with a single command. However, it was mentioned that the proofreading was done in segments of 350 words, raising questions about the efficiency of the tool for longer documents.
The user highlighted the character limit of Apple Intelligence’s feature, suggesting that it surpassed the limit of Samsung’s Galaxy AI, which is said to be 500 characters. However, upon further investigation by Gadgets 360 staff, it was revealed that the AI summarization tool of Apple Intelligence could accommodate up to 9,917 characters with spaces, or 8,413 characters without spaces. This significantly challenges the initial claims made by the user regarding the character limit.
While the demo video showcased the proofreading capability of Apple Intelligence, there were no demonstrations of the summarization or rewrite features. This raises questions about whether the tool has similar limitations for those operations as well. Additionally, since the information provided was based on a single source, it is important to consider that these claims are preliminary and may not represent the full scope of Apple Intelligence’s capabilities.
Final Thoughts
As we await the official release of Apple Intelligence to the public, it is crucial to approach the claims made with caution. While the demo video suggests that Apple Intelligence may outperform Samsung’s Galaxy AI in certain aspects, further testing and reviews will be necessary to determine the true potential of this new feature. Only time will tell whether Apple Intelligence Writing Tools can truly revolutionize the writing experience for users worldwide.
