Apple ‘Genmoji’ and Image Playground introduce gen AI emojis and mood pics
- Apple has introduced a new feature for iOS 18 called ‘Genmoji,’ which uses AI to create emojis.
- It also revealed Image Playground, a photo-generating AI tool that is available as a separate app.
- Apple Intelligence, along with these features, is available for free on iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia.
AI has become a huge deal in the mobile industry, and Apple doesn’t plan to fall behind. Apple Intelligence is all the hype at WWDC 2024, introducing features that aim to fulfill all your artificial intelligence needs straight from its operating systems. Two very fun features it hopes users might enjoy are Genmoji and Image Playground.
Genmoji allows you to create emojis using AI on the Messages app, straight from the keyboard. When you launch the feature, you’ll be able to provide a description of the Genmoji you would like Apple Intelligence to create. It will then load for a bit and create multiple options for you. And because Apple Intelligence knows who is in your photo gallery, you can pick someone, and it will make a Genmoji of that person for you. Pretty fun, right?
