Apple is set to launch its new AI features, branded as Apple Intelligence, with a potential subscription fee of up to $20 monthly. This move aims to offset the significant costs associated with AI development while providing users with advanced tools like AI-generated emojis and an enhanced Siri. Analysts suggest that a dual approach of free and paid tiers could help Apple balance user engagement and monetization.
