iOS 18. 2 Updates: Apple's AI Hits the Scene

Apple's new iOS 18. 2 brings some cool AI features to the table, like ChatGPT for Siri and an AI image generator called Image Playground. But are these updates actually useful, or are they just flashy new toys? Let's take a look. First off, iOS 18. 2 finally lets Siri talk to ChatGPT. This means Siri can now help with more complicated tasks, like writing emails or giving advice on tough topics. But don't expect Siri to suddenly become perfect. It's still going to make stuff up sometimes, just like before. Then there's Image Playground. This app lets you create all sorts of fun images, like turning your spouse into an astronaut. But be warned, AI isn't perfect, and sometimes the results will be a little off. Like when it adds a pit to your avocado toast or makes hands that look creepy. Plus, iOS 18. 2 also lets you change how your AI-written stuff sounds. Want your email to sound like Mr. T? Done. But does that really make your life any better? Maybe, maybe not.
