During an hour-long all-hands meeting following Apple’s latest earnings call, Cook highlighted the company’s growing investment in AI. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, this urgent message was conveyed to employees after discussions about Apple’s advancements in generative features and on-device intelligence. While Apple has previously emphasized data security and user control, Cook’s comments clearly signal a strategic shift towards making AI a core part of Apple’s future roadmap.

Apple has brought many AI capabilities to the forefront, such as personalized Siri experiences and generative features, but these have been developed at a slower pace compared to competitors like Google and OpenAI. Cook’s recent remarks eliminate any doubt about the company’s commitment: Apple cannot afford to fall behind in this critical race and must win.

For Apple’s team, the message is clear: the company is fully committed to advancing AI. We can expect enhanced generative AI features in upcoming iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia releases. The coming year will reveal whether Cook’s bold push will usher in a new era for Apple or simply expose the limitations of its tightly controlled ecosystem.
