It takes quite a bit of power to run Apple's AI, and not all iPhones, iPads, and Macs are compatible.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most exciting technologies to emerge in recent years, allowing a large number of tasks to be performed. In iOS 18, there will be many new features related to AI. These features will also be available on other operating systems. However, it's likely that not all iPhones, iPads, and Macs will have full access to Apple's AI.
Only the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series will receive the full power of Apple's AI.
Only the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series will receive the full power of Apple's AI.
As revealed, only the most powerful iPhones, iPads, and Macs are fully compatible with Apple's AI, so not all iPhones updated to iOS 18 will be able to take full advantage of the AI functions that the company offers. you are prepared.
It is expected that Apple will launch many new AI-related features at WWDC 24 this month. AI will be integrated into all upcoming operating systems and it is expected that users will get many important new features on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Apple wants most AI-related innovations to run on the devices themselves without an internet connection, although there are also functions that require operation from the company's servers. However, this creates a major drawback, which is that only more modern and powerful devices with next-generation neural engine chips can perform the most complex AI tasks. Therefore, not all devices updated to iOS 18, iPadOS 18 or macOS 15 can access these AI functions.

It appears that every iPhone running iOS 18 supports AI-enhanced Siri.

That doesn't mean less powerful devices won't have AI capabilities, rather more advanced capabilities will require powerful devices. For example, all iOS 18 devices have the ability to feature the new AI-enhanced Siri, which requires an active internet connection.
For iPhones, iPads, and Macs that are fully compatible with Apple's AI, the list includes: iPhones with A17 Pro chip or later (iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and iPhone 16 in the future); iPad with M1 chip or higher (iPad Air M1, iPad Air M2, iPad Pro M1, iPad Pro M2, and iPad Pro M4); and Mac with M1 chip or higher.
This list is derived from the power inside the chips. The A17 Pro chip, for example, has significantly faster CPU and GPU cores as well as a new 16-core neural engine capable of performing 35 billion operations per second - essential for AI functions.
Many iPad and Mac models can fully work with Apple's AI.

With iPad and Mac, it seems that the requirement is simply an M1 chip so support is more widely. This means that there will be more devices capable of using the new AI functions that Apple introduced. The M1 chip was introduced in 2020, and since then Apple has launched many Macs and iPads with this processor and its successors.
