Apple evaluates its models through human assessment
Apple Intelligence, perhaps the highlight of this year’s WWDC, is tightly integrated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia, and includes advanced generative models specialized for everyday tasks like writing, text refinement, summarizing notifications, creating images, and automating app interactions.
The system includes a 3-billion-parameter on-device language model and a larger server-based model running on Apple silicon servers via Private Cloud Compute (PCC). Apple says these foundation models, along with a coding model for Xcode and a diffusion model for visual expression, support a wide range of user and developer needs.
The company also adheres to Responsible AI principles, ensuring tools empower users, represent diverse communities, and protect privacy through on-device processing and secure PCC.
