This article covers:

Apple recently revealed that its annual developers conference, WWDC, is set to occur from June 10 to June 14. While the conference will be live-streamed on Apple's website, a select group of software developers have been invited to the campus on the first day for an in-person celebration.

One of the highly anticipated announcements at this year's WWDC is Apple's long-awaited artificial intelligence strategy. CEO Tim Cook previously mentioned that Apple has been making significant investments in AI and hinted at a related announcement expected later in the year, potentially at the WWDC event.

Traditionally, Apple uses WWDC as a platform to unveil the latest iterations of its software for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. This unveiling typically occurs through a keynote video on the initial day of the conference, led by Apple's top executives, including Tim Cook, and is also live-streamed on platforms like YouTube. Past WWDC events have also seen the introduction of new professional-focused hardware such as Mac laptops.

Furthermore, at this year's conference, Apple is scheduled to showcase the first significant software update for the Vision Pro, the virtual reality headset launched earlier in the year.

Apple's commitment to AI and the potential reveal at WWDC demonstrates the company's continuous efforts to innovate and stay at the forefront of technological advancements.
