Apple’s next big iPhone event is just around the corner, and the iPhone 17 lineup is likely to take center stage. I'll be looking to see how Apple melds the new hardware with its AI ambitions. Because unless there's something unique to the new devices, specifically relating to AI, I'm not sure I really want to upgrade.
There have been rumors flying around Apple's AI plans ever since Apple Intelligence started rolling out. But that has mostly seemed like just the same set of AI features available on every device with an occasional Apple twist. If the company wants this launch to stand out, it’ll need to show how the iPhone 17 can do something that no other Apple device, perhaps no other smartphone, can do using AI. Something connected to the hardware.
