  • Apple’s initial rollout of AI features in iOS 18 will reportedly function entirely on-device, keeping user data local.
  • This on-device approach emphasizes privacy but may limit access to the more sophisticated AI features, which often require cloud support.
  • Apple could potentially address this with third-party cloud-based AI features.

As Google and Samsung increasingly integrate AI capabilities into their flagship smartphones, Apple is poised to follow suit with the release of iOS 18. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the initial rollout of Apple’s AI capabilities will function entirely on the user’s device, eliminating the need for cloud-based processing.

“As the world awaits Apple’s big AI unveiling on June 10, it looks like the initial wave of features will work entirely on-device. That means there’s no cloud processing component to the company’s large language model, the software that powers the new capabilities,” Gurman explained.
