Foxit brings its PDF editor with AI assistant to Snapdragon-powered Windows 11 PCs
Foxit has announced that its PDF Editor and Editor Pro with AI Assistant now natively support PCs powered by Snapdragon processors. This aims to enhance the performance and capabilities of Foxit’s PDF solutions, particularly for users of Dell’s latest devices that utilize Snapdragon processors.
Native Snapdragon support allows software like Foxit’s PDF Editor to fully leverage the hardware’s capabilities without relying on emulation or translation layers. This not only improves performance but also enhances compatibility and battery life. Users of Snapdragon-powered PCs will experience faster rendering, more efficient processing, and a smoother overall user experience when working with PDF documents.
Apple Intelligence will launch in beta and that’s unacceptable for a trillion-dollar company
Apple, a company worth over 3 trillion dollars, has announced Apple Intelligence, a personal AI system, will begin rolling out in October alongside iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1. Despite being one of the wealthiest companies on the planet, Apple is choosing to release this highly anticipated feature as a beta, and that’s a huge problem. Users will essentially be treated like testers, expected to troubleshoot and report bugs, instead of receiving a polished, fully functional system out of the gate.
What’s even more frustrating is that Apple Intelligence won’t be ready in time for the iPhone 16 lineup launch this month. It’s criminal for Apple to ask for so much money for these phones -- marketed as AI-powered -- when the core intelligence feature won’t even be available at launch. Customers are paying top dollar for devices that won’t include one of the main selling points on day one.
Apple Intelligence coming to iPhone, iPad and Mac
Today at its latest WWDC, Apple unveiled Apple Intelligence, a new artificial intelligence system integrated into the upcoming iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia operating systems. Making use of generative models and personal context, Apple Intelligence aims to simplify and enhance user tasks through deep integration with Apple devices.
Apple Intelligence introduces a wealth of new writing tools that allow users to rewrite, proofread, and summarize text across various apps including Mail, Notes, and Pages. The tools aim to improve writing efficiency and quality by providing different versions of text, grammar checks, and summaries.
