CUPERTINO, Calif. (AP) — Apple on Monday charged into the artificial intelligence craze with a new iPhone lineup that marks the company’s latest attempt to latch on a technology trend and transform it into a cultural phenomenon. The four different iPhone 16 models will all come equipped with a special chip needed to power an AI suite that Apple is hoping will reverse a recent slump sales. Among other things, Apple’s AI features are designed to turn its often-blundering virtual assistant Siri into a smarter and more versatile sidekick. But the changes won’t be available when the new iPhones hit the store September 20. Instead, they will come out in December as part of a free software update.
