According to Mark Gurman's latest "Power On" newsletter from Bloomberg, Apple is planning to introduce two new features called "Image Playground" and "Genmoji" in the upcoming iOS 18.2 update. While the iOS 18.1 release in October will not include any Apple image generation features, it is expected that these new functionalities will be introduced in the iOS 18.2 update. Based on past practices, the iOS 18.2 update is likely to be released around mid-December, which means users may be able to use these new "emoji" features during the upcoming holiday season. This indicates that Apple is exploring the use of artificial intelligence technology to provide users with more personalized emoji creation tools to meet their diverse needs in instant messaging. Although the specific workings and user experience details of "Image Playground" and "Genmoji" are currently unclear, based on their names, these two features may allow users to customize or generate unique emoji symbols using AI technology. This initiative will enable users to create emoji content that is more aligned with their personal style, further enriching the ways of digital communication. However, the specific implementation and effects will only be known after the official release.
