Apple will soon launch the new versions of its operating systems, macOS Sequoia 15.3, iOS 18.3 and iPadOS 18.3, which will arrive loaded with new features that will not go unnoticed by anyone, among which the automatic activation of Apple Intelligence, the functions based on artificial intelligence, stands out. .
We must remember that it will only arrive on compatible devices and regions, so in Waiting we will still have to wait about two or three months more for its launch.
This functionality, which until now was optional, will be enabled by default after the update, according to the developer notes published by the company.
Apple Intelligence in iOS 18.3
Apple Intelligence, Apple’s integrated artificial intelligence, will be activated automatically during the initial setup process for devices running iOS 18.3. This means that users who update or configure an iPhone, iPad or Mac with these versions will have immediate access to their advanced features. However, those who prefer not to use this technology can manually deactivate it by accessing the Apple Intelligence and Siri settings and unchecking the corresponding option.
Until now, in previous versions, such as macOS Sequoia 15.1 and iOS 18.2, this function was optional and required manual activation by the user. This shift toward default activation reflects Apple’s growing interest in encouraging adoption of its artificial intelligence tools, which promise to improve the user experience with personalized suggestions and automated optimizations.
But the surprises don’t end here, because macOS Sequoia 15.3 also introduces Genmojia tool that allows users to create custom emojis directly from their Macs, a functionality that until now was exclusive to mobile devices. In this way, Apple’s commitment to bringing creative and accessible tools to all its platforms is reinforced.
Another of the strong points of these updates is the improvement in summaries of notifications, which will now indicate more clearly when the information contained in a notification has been generated by artificial intelligence. This small but significant change is intended to keep users informed about the origin of the data they receive, in line with growing concerns about transparency in the use of AI.
In Spain we will have to wait
Public developers and testers (users who test software betas) already have access to the final versions of macOS Sequoia 15.3, iOS 18.3 and iPadOS 18.3, indicating that their official release to the general public is just around the corner. Everything indicates that these updates will be available next weekbringing with it a new level of technological integration and ease of use.
In any case, we remember that in Spain it will not yet be available, and it will not be available until at least iOS 18.4, which will arrive during the month of April.
With these new features, Apple reaffirms its position in technological leadership, betting on a more fluid, personalized experience focused on artificial intelligence. However, the shift towards automatic activation of Apple Intelligence also raises questions about privacy and user control, a debate that will no doubt rage on in the coming months. If you are planning to upgrade your device, get ready to discover a new era in the Apple ecosystem.
