Vintage Icons and Slogans in macOS 15
There are so many things we can expect at the upcoming WWDC. Bloomberg tech journalist Mark Gurman revealed that Apple's new wallpaper packs will include Mac versions referencing old-school icons and slogans. For long-time Apple fans, this is a trip down memory lane that is hard to ignore.
Anticipation for Official Announcements
The specifics of these retro wallpapers will be officially unveiled next week during the announcements of iOS 18 and macOS 15. This aligns with Apple's recent trend of reviving fan-favorite wallpapers from earlier device generations.
For instance, iOS 16 brought back the iconic clownfish wallpaper from the original iPhone, and iPadOS 17 reintroduced the original wallpaper from the first-ever iPad, per 9to5Mac.

We all know that the Cupertino tech giant has tons of surprises including the highly-anticipated AI features coming on iOS 18. Would you believe that AI is not artificial intelligence in Apple's WWDC vocabulary? It's indeed "Apple Intelligence."
According to Engadget, the iPhone maker has a smart world play to give its own definition of AI. While it's exciting what is coming soon, don't expect that it will be better than its competitors.
Previously, Siri was rumored to take control of apps through AI. The virtual assistant can easily scan your article and summarize the whole passage within a few seconds.
Of course, we know that the iOS 18 AI features will initially launch in either preview or beta mode. It's a good assessment to see the flaws of these features before they hit the public on their official release.
There are so many questions that Apple can't answer right now. They will be answered by the time WWDC 2024 drops on June 10. The tech keynote will kick off at 1 PM ET. You can watch the event via Apple's YouTube channel or the official event website. It will be an action-packed exhibition of software updates for iOS 18 and other operating systems.
