WWDC: Apple Unifies Operating Systems, Makes iPad More PC

Getting AI use cases right remains tricky, warned Kristen Hanich, an analyst with Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products in Dallas.

“Consumers have shown a mixed reaction to GenAI, sometimes verging on the negative,” she told TechNewsWorld. “Companies need to be careful that their use of AI reflects what consumers want and find valuable, and not just what investors demand. This is particularly true for companies in the hardware and operating system space, which must walk a careful tightrope between helpful and insightful applications and ones that might be seen as annoying or invasive.”

“Apple’s rollout of Apple Intelligence to its users is improving, with adoption among iPhone users nearly doubling between Q4 2024 and Q1 2025,” she said. “While at present, Apple Intelligence adoption among iPhone users is far below that of ChatGPT and roughly on par with Google Gemini, Meta AI, and Microsoft CoPilot, this rapid growth in Apple Intelligence adoption suggests that Apple’s careful strategy is paying off.”
