š§ Apple's AI Reveal at WWDC 2025: Innovation or Illusion? šš¤
Apple just lifted the curtain on its Apple Intelligence suiteābut instead of applause, itās getting raised eyebrows.
ā ļø Despite bold claims, Appleās latest on-device AI model was rated by human testers as performing similar to older models from Google and Alibaba. Even more surprising, Apple Serverāmeant to run in data centersāunderperformed compared to OpenAI's GPT-4o and Meta's Llama 4 when it comes to text and image tasks.
š Developers like Atul Kakkar and Grant McDonald voiced skepticism:
āThere was no excitement this year.ā
āItās hard to break through the noise.ā
And while Apple promises a more powerful Siri and dev-ready on-device AI, critics say:
⢠Thereās no clear timeline
⢠Custom fine-tuning isnāt possible
⢠Models lack performance parity with cloud AI giants
š According to analysts, Apple delayed too long while OpenAI, Google, and Meta surged ahead. The result? A WWDC full of ambitionābut not enough delivery.
But hereās the twist:
ā On-device AI could still win in cost, privacy, and real-time UX.
āThe real question: Will Apple catch upāor has the Siri moment quietly passed them by?
