Apple’s aims in artificial intelligence go beyond the release of Apple Intelligence on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, the company is also working to bring these AI improvements into its Vision Pro headsets.
Integrating AI throughout all Apple devices
This move is part of an effort by Apple to make sure that every device. Its ecosystem has what is called “Apple Intelligence” – a package that consists of souped-up Siri with more features than ever before, intelligent spell-checking tools capable of understanding context as well as grammar rules themselves, advanced emojis that can be personalized down to individual users’ facial appearances among other things like them being able to change size depending on how they are used or even combined). However, Vision Pro still stands out as expensive and currently targets a few people.
Apple Challenges in Mixed Reality
Gurman says we won’t see Apple Intelligence arrive on the Vision Pro this year. The biggest obstacle lies in figuring out what these features do when you’re not looking at a MacBook or iPhone interface but navigating through mixed-reality space with your head on. This complexity underscores the depth of Apple’s AI development, making it a fascinating journey for tech enthusiasts to follow.
Apple Improving the Vision Pro Experience
In other Vision Pro news, Gurman reports that Apple is renovating its stores’ display areas for VR headsets such as those made by HTC or Oculus. Potential buyers can use their media while trying out different models to understand better which suits them best before shelling out hundreds or thousands of dollars. He also mentions how Apple has switched from using Solo Loop bands due to discomfort caused after prolonged usage to adopting a Dual Loop band design instead, which should provide more comfort during longer wears.
Next-gen AirPods may have Infrared Cameras.
And finally, today, there is some more analyst chatter (and who doesn’t love some analyst chatter?). Renowned Apple watcher Ming-Chi Kuo shared new details from his latest supply chain check. In a research note today, seen by MacRumors, Kuo said he believes Apple will mass produce a new version of AirPods with infrared cameras in 2026. These advanced AirPods are expected to offer unique audio experiences. When paired with the Vision Pro and introducing gesture controls for the mixed reality device — further blurring the lines between Apple’s AI ambitions and its plans for VR/AR, this exciting development will surely keep Apple enthusiasts on their seats.
