The Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) next week is rumored to focus on AI integration within its operating systems, particularly with Siri and its built-in iOS applications such as Photos, Notes, Messages and Voice Memos

The annual event, which runs from June 10-14 at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, will be headlined by a keynote address showcasing the company’s new software and technologies.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is expected to be the speaker for the keynote presentation at 10 a.m. PT on June 10. Following the keynote, a Platforms State of the Union, allowing attendees to “discover the newest advancements on Apple platforms,” will begin at 1 p.m. PT.

Cook said during Apple’s annual shareholders meeting in February that the company would “break new ground” on GenAI this year, TechCrunch reported.

While Apple has not confirmed what will be on its agenda for the presentations, it has not stopped tech experts and outlets from speculating.

Here are some rumors about what could come out of WWDC 2024.

Central to Apple’s AI strategy will be a billion-dollar partnership with OpenAI—per reports—that would infuse ChatGPT and ChatGPT-like capabilities across its entire ecosystem. iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, you name it. Rumour has it that there’s a bit of resistance inside Apple to integrate a chatbot within Apple devices—like many other brands—and so, you can expect Apple to do things differently. We’ll see. The other big piece of the jigsaw puzzle is Siri. Thanks to AI and Apple’s meticulous engineering, its in-house voice assistant is—finally—set to get its biggest overhaul since it made its grand debut with the iPhone 4S in 2011.
