Prior to this, in September, IT media The Information reported that Apple plans to integrate a large-scale language model that allows users to automate complex tasks into Siri, and that it may be included in iOS 18, which will be released next year. Apple has recently publicly expressed interest in generative AI, and has hired related personnel in recent months. ■ Articles related to RCS support On the 16th, Apple announced, “We plan to add support for RCS, the messaging standard adopted by the GSMA (Global Mobile Communications Association), at the end of next year.” Considering that period, RCS support will be available in iOS 18.
