The Dawn of a New Era

Apple’s ubiquitous iPhone is about to break new ground with a shift into artificial intelligence that will do everything from smartening up its frequently dim-witted assistant Siri to creating customized emojis on the fly.

The Unveiling of iPhone 16

The new era will dawn Monday with the unveiling of the hotly anticipated iPhone 16 in a Cupertino, California, auditorium named after Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who pulled out the first iPhone in 2007 and waved it like a magic wand while predicting it would reshape society.

Why the Buzz?

The iPhone 16 is generating a bigger buzz because it is the first model to be tailored specifically for AI, a technology that is expected to trigger the biggest revolution in the industry since Jobs thrust Apple into the smartphone market 17 years ago.

Apple’s AI Strategy

Apple’s pivot began three months ago with a preview of its new approach during a developers conference, helping to build anticipation for Monday’s showcase. Since that June conference, competitors such as Samsung and Google have made even more strides in AI.

Apple Intelligence vs. Competitors

In an attempt to set itself apart from the early leaders in AI, the technology being baked into the iPhone 16 is being promoted as “Apple Intelligence.” Even so, Apple Intelligence is similar to the generically named AI already available on Google’s Pixel 9 and the Samsung Galaxy S24 released in January.

Investor Anticipation

That’s why investors anticipate hot demand for the iPhone 16, spurring a surge in sales that has caused Apple’s stock price to climb by 13% since Apple previewed its AI strategy in June. That spike has increased the company’s market value by nearly $400 billion.
