(Read time: five minutes) - Fun fact: I never change this.

If you’ve been waiting a long time for an Apple assistant that is better than Siri, you will have to wait a little longer. According to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, Apple Intelligence is being delayed until after iOS 18 goes live.

What you need to know:

• Delayed Debut: Letting the cat out of the bag, Mark Gurman from Bloomberg reveals that Apple Intelligence is sleeping in and will finally wake up with iOS 18.1 in October.

• Sneak Peek: Some features could be included in a developer beta for iPhone and iPad as early as this week. Think of it as a teaser trailer for the main event.

• Feature Rollout: Image Playground and Genmoji are expected to be the earliest arrivals, beating Siri and ChatGPT integration, which will come fashionably late next Spring.

• Impact on iPhone 16: With this delay, Apple Intelligence will not be one of the major selling points for iPhone 16 at its launch. Ming-Chi Kuo had already expressed concerns about its influence on sales; now we know why.

• Stability First: By moving Apple Intelligence to 18.1, Apple is giving itself more time to find bugs, which means smoother releases for iOS and iPadOS 18.0

My Take:

Apple’s choice to delay Apple Intelligence until iOS 18.1 is vintage—good things come to those who wait. While it might detract from the excitement around the iPhone 16 launch, it shows that Apple wants its customers happy. Developer betas coming this week will give a taste of the future, keeping people’s eyes peeled for what lies ahead.

Patience is a virtue, right?

Cool Tech: TRI / Stanford Engineering Autonomous Tandem Drift

No one is more excited about autonomous cars than me. When I moved to Southern California for Denver, I decided to get rid of my beloved Toyota 4Runner so I could be carless forever. Today, my wife and I share a Tesla with autopilot that I love dearly.

This is another massive step toward GA for autonomous automobiles.
