How to Catch Them All live: The WWDC 2019 Keynote Event on Mac OS, IOS, and iPads (with an app announcement)

Apple never announced it was broadening its options for artificial intelligence for its mobile device operating system, despite the possibility of doing so, at the very least, at this year’s WWDC.

Rumor has it we may also see a whole new product category from Apple, with a HomePad smart display possibly in the offering. Here are the steps to catch it all live.

While WWDC itself runs all week, the keynote with all the major announcements should take just a couple hours on Monday, June 9th. It’s set to start at 1PM ET / 10AM PT.

The keynote event is taking place in person at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, but it’ll be streamed online too. The easiest place for most people to watch it will be YouTube, so we’ve embedded the livestream up above.

Apparently this year they’ll all make the jump to iOS 26, macOS 26, tvOS 26, and so on, unifying version numbers while tying them to the calendar year just after they release, which should help them sound sufficiently futuristic.

That will mean updated icons, menus, apps, windows, and system buttons across iPhones, Macs, and iPads, with a look that incorporates “light and transparency.” New pop-out menus that show extra options on a click, and larger redesigns for the phone, camera, and browser on the iPhone and iPad are among the changes that will be made.

The Elephant in the Room: Apple Updates and Implications for Mobile Generative Ai Service Development and Windows Phone Embedding

Apple Intelligence has long been criticized for its weaknesses, and for falling behind competitors in the race to build generative Ai services. Apple isn’t mentioned in comparison to its competitors when it comes to power users and exploration of real-life benefits.

He is the senior ani reporter of The Verge. Her work has appeared in places like MIT Technology Review and CNBC for more than five years.

Apple spoke to the elephant in the room by mentioning that it had updated its voice companion, but that personalization was still on the way. At last year’s World Wide Web Developers Conference, those features were mentioned, with a release date of over the course of the next year.

Meanwhile, Apple Intelligence’s stumbles have given people plenty to poke fun at in the months since their rollout. The feature’s rocky debut included notification summaries so off the mark that the company disabled them for some app categories after the BBC reported the tool would conflate multiple headlines into inaccurate synopses.

The strategy on Monday was to release a wide swath of small, functional updates powered by Apple Intelligence, which were meant to help it catch up to competitors in terms of translation and search. Apple’s Image Playground now integrates with OpenAI’s technology, and users can tap into ChatGPT to change a friend’s photo into the style of an oil painting or other types of art. Apple gave developers access to the on-device large language model behind Apple Intelligence, and it also debuted live translation features that allow users to translate between languages in Messages, FaceTime, and phone calls.

During a live session after the Apple keynote, Federighi mentioned he hoped Apple intelligence would eventually allow users to choose the models they want. In February, Apple gave a peek at a Gemini integration and in April, the CEO of Microsoft said the company will work with Apple by the end of this year. Everyone’s still waiting for that.
