I was excited to get snapping with the new camera system, to enjoy the crisp, high-refresh-rate display, and to zip through apps and tasks as fast as my fingers would carry me. And there was one more thing that caught my eye at the time: It was \u201cBuilt for Apple Intelligence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Because, of course, this was right around the time Apple introduced its Apple Intelligence system to the world. The company promised \u201cAI for the rest of us,\u201d with powerful tools that seemed tailored to how I wanted to use my phone: Siri would understand my personal context, I was told, and it would start delving into my apps and taking actions on my behalf. Finally, after so many years, Siri would be getting the personal assistant glow up it had always craved.<\/p>\n<p>We all know how that turned out.<\/p>\n<p>After delays, class-action lawsuits, and widespread humiliation, WWDC 2026 was meant to be when Apple finally made good on all those promises. It was, we thought, the time when Apple would bring iPhone 16-series users like me the features we\u2019d been promised two years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Except, as it turns out, that\u2019s a load of bull.<\/p>\n<p>Remember when the iPhone 16 Pro was built for Apple Intelligence? Apple doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p class=\"imageCredit\">Apple<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"apple-indefensible\">Apple indefensible<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019m not saying that the features&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/article\/3159693\/apple-just-killed-my-apple-intelligence-dreams.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple dashed my Apple Intelligence dreams https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/article\/3159693\/apple-just-killed-my-apple-intelligence-dreams.html Publish Date: 2026-06-08 18:15:00 Source Domain: www.macworld.com Summary&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":267814,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.macworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/apple-intelligence-features-3.jpg?quality=50&strip=all&w=1024","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[124,80],"class_list":["post-267813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-iphone-16","tag-iphone-17"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267813"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=267813"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":267815,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267813\/revisions\/267815"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/267814"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=267813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=267813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=267813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
