Summaries in messages and mail
Sometimes we have little time, and yet whoever we’re interacting with has a great deal of complex information to share; the result is a lengthy email. Sure, the whole message should probably be read, but if you’re short of time, you can use Summaries in Messages to get the gist of the entire diatribe. Yes, if you completely rely on summaries you’ll probably miss something, but if you are in a hurry and just need the basics, Apple Intelligence has your back.
Built-in transcription tools
Apple Intelligence lets you generate summaries and transcripts of audio recordings captured with the Notes app or during a phone call. This is going to be popular with a lot of people — particularly researchers, students, and journalists. (If you’re concerned about privacy, all parties in a phone call will be told this activity is taking place.)
The new audio transcription and summarization features in Notes enable a device to take notes for the user, Apple says. This lets them, “stay present in a situation where they need to capture details about what’s happening,” which means you can stay focused in that meeting and still have a useful and usable aide memoire.
