(Reuters) – Bloomberg News reported on Sunday that Apple’s future artificial intelligence features will arrive later than expected, missing the initial launch of upcoming iPhone and iPad software overhauls.

According to the source, the iPhone maker intends to begin pushing out Apple Intelligence to customers as part of software updates in October.

Bloomberg reported that AI functionality will be available a few weeks after the original iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 releases in September.

According to the source, Apple intends to make Apple Intelligence available to app developers for early testing for the first time this week with iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 betas.
