Siri Redesign Available starting October 2024
With Apple Intelligence, Siri has been redesigned top to bottom. The new interactive elements are going to be made available with the iPhone, iPad, and the Mac. Now, rather than taking up your screen, Siri will pulse from the edges when invoked. On the Mac, you’ll also have the capability to place it anywhere on your screen. That’s how these overhauls change Siri into much more of an interactive and visually appealing entity when interacting with your virtual assistant.

Visual Intelligence-Feature integrated starting from iPhone 16 Pro onwards
Some of the key features among many that have been brought into the new range of iPhone 16 Pro series is the Camera Control button, which extends Visual Intelligence with advanced photo editing, like removing unwanted elements in your picture. It uses AI to deliver instant intuitive image changes that were previously cumbersome and complicated.

Security and Privacy Concerns
Apple Intelligence places much emphasis on user privacy; most of the processing happens right on your device. However, more power-hungry tasks are handled with Private Cloud Compute, meaning even when your data is sometimes processed on Apple’s servers, it is not stored or shared with Apple. This makes it highly confidential. Second, all interactions with ChatGPT via Siri mask your IP address for added privacy.
Will You Need the Latest iPhone?
Apple Intelligence runs on an iPhone 16 series, but it is supported on the iPhone 15 Pro models. However, some of its most valuable features such as Visual Intelligence enhancements and Camera Control button require an iPhone 16 series device. In any case, you will be able to access the core AI features and functionalities while other functionalities are not available with older models.
