This move signifies Apple’s leap into the new era of artificial intelligence (AI), happening even before their annual developer event, WWDC 2024. The event, scheduled for May 7, will showcase new tablet models, including an iPad Pro featuring an OLED panel and an iPad Air with a 12.9-inch screen. Additionally, new accessories like the Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard will be unveiled. With just one week left until the event, Apple has made a significant change that will position them at the forefront of AI technology. The iPad Pro is set to run on the M4 chip, which is equipped with a new neural engine designed to power AI applications. This move into AI devices is a strategic step for Apple, laying the groundwork for the company’s official AI strategy which will be elaborated on at WWDC 2024 in June. The decision will provide developers with the necessary support to leverage the new AI capabilities that will come with iPadOS 18. This move signifies that Apple is serious about integrating artificial intelligence into its products and services, and it’s likely we’ll see more developments in this area in the future. Technology
