Apple just released iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS Sequoia 15.2, bringing the next wave of Apple Intelligence. Users can now create Genmoji, generate artwork in Image Playground, and tap into ChatGPT directly through Siri and Writing Tools. It is live now for localized English, with other languages rolling out starting this April.
Apple just made its Image Playground app available in the iOS 18.2 developer beta, bringing built-in generative art to iPhone 16 and Pro users. The tool turns simple text prompts into stylized animations or illustrations, with recent updates speeding up rendering and prompt accuracy. It is Apple's latest push to make everyday generative AI feel native on mobile.
Apple just released the iOS 18.2 public beta, opening up the second wave of Apple Intelligence features to public testers. Users can now query ChatGPT directly through Siri without needing an account, and iPhone 16 owners get Visual Intelligence camera search. Image Playground and custom Genmoji are also included, though creative tools still sit behind a secondary waitlist.
Apple just introduced ChatGPT usage tracking and Plus upgrade shortcuts in iOS 18.2 Beta 2. Free users get a small daily allowance of GPT-4o requests and two DALL-E 3 images before Siri downgrades to a basic model. If you need more headroom, the Settings app now lets you sign in or subscribe directly to OpenAI's $19.99 monthly Plus tier.
