iOS 18<\/a> is expected to be unveiled at WWDC 2024 on June 10, months before Apple<\/a> rolls out its next major software update to eligible iPhone models. While the company is yet to offer any details related to iOS 18, analysis of backend code on Apple’s servers has revealed that the company could be working on two new AI features that could arrive with the upcoming update. These include an AI-powered ‘browsing assistant’ for Safari that could bring Apple’s browser on par with competing applications.<\/p>\n

In a post on X (formerly Twitter) developer\u00a0Nicol\u00e1s \u00c1lvarez (@nicolas09F9) states that he discovered references to two features on Apple’s backend code. The first one \u2014 Safari<\/a> browsing assistant \u2014 that sounds similar to generative AI assistants that are capable of analysing and summarising web pages, like Copilot on Microsoft Edge<\/a>, or Arc Browser<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Coming in iOS 18:
– “Safari browsing assistant”
– “Encrypted visual search”<\/p>\n

Both features seem to use the Private Relay infrastructure to send data to Apple (so that they don’t know your IP?).<\/p>\n

The second feature spotted by\u00a0the developer is called Encrypted visual search, which is already a feature offered by Spotlight, as the developer points out. It is currently unclear whether iOS 18 will include a more advanced (and secure) version of the Visual Look Up feature that can automatically identify plants, pet breeds, and landmarks in Camera Roll images.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvarez explains<\/a> that both these features will use an\u00a0Oblivious HTTP gateway (a privacy protocol for forwarding encrypted HTTP messages) that will stop the company from identifying multiple requests as arriving from the same IP address. The developer previously speculated that Apple would use its iCloud Private Relay feature, which requires a monthly subscription to iCloud+ or Apple One.<\/p>\n

Apple is yet to reveal details of these purported AI features expected to arrive on its upcoming operating system update for eligible iPhone models. The company is expected to unveiled iOS 18 alongside macOS 15 and other operating system updates for various Apple products at WWDC 2024<\/a>, which begins on June 10, and we can expect to learn more about these AI features during the WWDC keynote event in a couple of months.<\/p>\n\n
