JAKARTA - The first version of Apple Intelligence is now available to developers, but there are still many features that don't exist yet. iOS 18.1 beta 1 introduced a new Siri, for example, but still doesn't have important features such as ChatGPT integration. In Apple's earnings call last week, Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, discussed the gradual launch of Apple Intelligence features and specifically mentioned a schedule for ChatGPT support.

In Apple's earnings call, many analysts asked about Apple Intelligence. Wall Street wants to know how much AI's impact on Apple's profits is.

During the call, Amit Daryanani of Evercore asked about the launch of the AI feature. In particular, he asked whether Apple Intelligence would be launched in stages.

Here's Tim Cook's response. "Launching, as we mentioned in June, we've actually started with developers this week. We started with some Apple Intelligence features, not all packages. There are other features like languages other than US English that will be launched throughout the year, and there are other features that will be launched throughout the year, and ChatGPT will be integrated at the end of the calendar year, so, yes, this is a gradual launch," Cook said.

Tentu pernyataan itu sebagian besar tidak mengejutkan. Publik sudah tahu bahwa Apple Intelligence akan diluncurkan hanya dalam bahasa Inggris AS, dengan tambahan bahasa lainnya akan datang tahun depan. Pencatatan kaki di situs web Apple sendiri mengatakan demikian.

The public also knows that not all features will be available at launch. In its WWDC keynote, Apple highlighted that Siri's particular capabilities will be launched in stages.

ChatGPT Integration Time With Apple Intelligence

To date, it is assumed that the ChatGPT integration will be present at the initial Apple Intelligence launch on iOS 18.1. But this feature is not in first beta 18.1, but the current expectation is that the upcoming beta will add more Apple Intelligence features.

However, when talking about the gradual launch of Apple Intelligence, and without being asked by anyone, Tim Cook said the ChatGPT integration would come 'at the end of the calendar year.'

Although there has been no official announcement yet, it seems that ChatGPT will not be present at the Apple Intelligence launch on iOS 18.1. On the other hand, this feature appears to be coming to iOS 18.2 by the end of the year.

When Will IOS 18.2 Be Released

Apple usually releases two points updates for the main OS version before the calendar year ends. For example, the following is the launch date of iOS 17 years ago:

iOS 17.0: 18 September

iOS 17.1: October 25

iOS 17.2: 11 December

The pattern is similar to the previous 16-year-old iOS:

iOS 16.0: 12 September

iOS 16.1: 24 October

iOS 16.2: December 13

Assuming this pattern persists, the public should see Apple Intelligence launch in October with iOS 18.1. However, if you read Cook's comments correctly, ChatGPT integration will not be present until iOS 18.2 in December. It may coincide with more AI features such as Genmoji and other image generation tools.

Which Apple Intelligence feature do you look forward to the most? Do you think these features will be present at the start of 18.1?
