What We Expect To See At WWDC
- iOS 18: While not officially confirmed, the introduction of iOS 18 at WWDC 2024 seems highly probable and is expected to be a major highlight. This anticipation is fueled by numerous AI enhancements currently in development. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, this update could potentially be one of the most significant in iPhone history. Apple may unveil a Siri powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), with AI integration expected in apps such as Music, Keynote, Pages, and even AppleCare.
- Other software: Alongside iOS 18, we can anticipate the release of iPadOS 18, macOS 15, watchOS 11, tvOS 18, and HomePod Software 18. Additionally, Apple may introduce visionOS 2, the software driving the Apple Vision Pro headset.
- Mac Studio, Mac Pro and other devices: Similar to the previous year, Apple is expected to unveil its latest lineup of Mac devices, including the Mac Studio, Mac Pro, and Mac Mini, all potentially powered by the new M3 chip. However, there's unlikely to be an unveiling of a new 15-inch MacBook Air this time, as the M3-powered MacBook Air was already launched earlier this month.
It is important to note that these are just speculations and this report must be considered with a pinch of salt.
