BofA securities senior IT hardware analyst Wamsi Mohan says investors should buy Apple on The Claman Countdown.
Apple’s upcoming release of new artificial intelligence (AI) tools is now expected to occur later than originally expected, coming after the initial launch of the new iOS 18 software for iPhone and iPads, according to a report.
Bloomberg News reported Sunday that Apple plans to launch Apple Intelligence in a batch of software updates slated for release in October, which will come a few weeks after the initial releases of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 in September. Other Apple Intelligence features are still planned to be released near the end of 2024 and in early 2025.
The company is expected to make Apple Intelligence available to software developers for the first time as early as this week, which will give them the opportunity to test the software on the beta versions of iOS and iPadOS 18.1, the report said.
Bloomberg added that concerns about the stability of Apple Intelligence features contributed to the decision to split its rollout from the launch of the new iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 operating systems.

Apple Intelligence uses generative AI to create text, images and other content for users on command. It will be available on iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and iPad and Mac devices with the company’s M1 chip and later versions.

The report about the delay of Apple Intelligence comes after Apple pushed back the launch of three new AI features because of newly implemented tech regulations in the European Union that require companies to ensure rival products and services can function on its devices.
