We’ve known this for weeks the date chosen by Apple to start WWDC 2024, you know, this year’s conference that he organizes every year mainly for developers. And yes, mainly, because the bulk of its activity is focused on workshops, seminars and other activities aimed exclusively at this audience, but the most prominent for several years is its inaugural keynote, which Apple uses to carry out some interesting advertising for the general public.

They are always among them development of future versions of its major operating systems, i.e. iOS and macOS, with mentions on some occasions (not always) of ipadOS and tvOS among others. But beyond that, it’s also fairly common to find bigger announcements like the jump to the ARM platform in 2020 and, more recently, Apple’s Vision Pro last year. But we don’t expect any big announcements regarding new devices this year.

We were hoping to find out, although we could have guessed, it was time for the event that would kick off the convention. We’ve been waiting because they finally confirmed it, so we already know Apple will hold the inaugural WWDC 2024 keynote on Monday, June 10 at 7 p.m. (Peninsula Spanish Time), 10:00 a.m. PT, maintaining the event’s traditional schedule.

As we have long expected, and even more so since it has been confirmed (not officially, of course) that Apple and OpenAI have already signed an agreement that has been in the air for some time, We know that the main protagonist of this year will be artificial intelligencewhich will arrive en masse on Apple devices next September, when the final versions of the operating systems will be published, showing us for the first time in just over 10 days.

In this regard, yes, there are conflicting theories. On one side are those who claim that Apple will surprise us during WWDC 2024 with many very surprising features while Others believe it won’t be that big of a problem., which in Cupertino will prioritize the proper functioning of several new features, partially based on third-party technology, in order to have one more year to develop its own models and features based on them with more margin. The question is whether they can afford a conservative strategy at this time when their main rivals are treading so hard. It’s a complicated situation, so it will be very interesting to see if they are able to find a balance.
