WWDC 2024
Apple’s WWDC 2024 conference kicks off Monday, June 10 at 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT. Many of this year’s rumors have centered around AI, with a potential deal being made between Apple and OpenAI to bring ChatGPT to iOS 18. And this year’s iOS 18 upgrade is said to be one the biggest in recent years, with a long-awaited revamp to Siri expected among other changes and AI-powered updates. Expect additional hardware and macOS 15’s debut, and just maybe, Vision Pro updates a year after its initial reveal.
iOS 18 will be available in the fall as a free software update.
These messaging features, announced at WWDC 2024, will have a significant impact on how people communicate every day.
