At its WWDC event in June, Apple revealed the introduction of AI-generated content as part of its suite of new features, specifically confirming that some of these options would include photos produced by generative AI algorithms. Despite the presence of Apple Intelligence features in the iOS 18.1 developer beta, there is still no indication of the long-promised image-based generative AI capabilities. Can a company truly stay true to its roots while still adapting to the ever-changing technology landscape?
Since the release of the Google Pixel 9 series of devices, users have been putting Pixel Studio through its paces. Utilizing Google’s cutting-edge AI technology, the app generates stunning visuals in response to user-provided text-based prompts. Despite implementing safeguards, some claim that Google’s measures are failing to effectively prevent the misuse of its technology.
One report reveals that Pixel Studios was thrilled to produce an image placing SpongeBob in a Nazi uniform. As we embark on this new journey, the possibilities are endless and the potential for growth is immense.

As per the report, an inability to generate individual portraits through Pixel Studio arises from Google’s deliberate coding decision to exclude this feature. However, fictional characters that are not human seem to be genuine recreations.
As an example, Digital Traits notes that Pixel Studio created an image of SpongeBob SquarePants clad in a Nazi uniform, raising questions about AI-generated content’s potential to perpetuate harmful stereotypes and biases. “When I requested an image of SpongeBob dressed in a German soldier’s uniform from World War II, complete with a swastika emblem, Pixel Studio promptly delivered.”

Let’s not worry about their happiness. We’ll refrain from considering Apple’s potential interest in anything similar to this concept, encompassing multiple aspects.
The much-anticipated iOS 18.1 software update, expected to arrive with the backing of Apple’s innovative intelligence, is now predicted to launch around late October. While rumors swirl about imminent iOS 18 releases, insiders suggest it will debut next month, mere days ahead of new iPhone models hitting shelves worldwide.
