Apple is already rolling out new text-to-speech models to automate audio book narrations on their ebook platform. Having heard the samples, it sounds better than most tts models available. I imagine apple already has plans in place to integrate _some _ new Ai tools into their products, but I think they will probably wait for things to settle before making a bigger commitment.

I think apple is well positioned to either buy an AI startup or integrate open source projects into their ecosystem and create a “Her” like product. Where a context aware assistant is consistent across your various operating systems. I don’t think any of the other vendors have quite the ecosystem to pull it off.
