I was actually thinking just this morning that if there's ONE area where AI could really make a difference, it's in predictive text on keyboards. How many times do I have to type "Roman Empire," say, before the keyboard suggests "Empire" the next time I type "Roman"? The keyboard doesn't even recommend my own last name when I type my first name.
Except reading the article, this is anything BUT that. It's some AI-generated art stuff so you can create custom stickers or some useless shit like that.
I think that’s what Apple did with ios17. they just prefer to use words like machine learning instead of AI. It definitely is improved, I was able to finally switch back after using Gboard for years.
Most of the hype is machine learning by definition, AI is just so much catchier.
AI is also the broader term. It also covers algorithmic approaches and knowledge representation.
I can confirm it’s much better in iOS 17
