Apple Intelligence in neurosurgery.

With the current artificial intelligence (AI) boom, new innovative and accessible applications requiring minimal computer science expertise have been developed for discipline specific and mainstream purposes. Apple Intelligence, a new AI model developed by Apple, aims to enhance user experiences with new functionalities across many of its product offerings. Although designed for the everyday user, many of these advances have potential applications in neurosurgery. These include functionalities for writing, image generation, and upgraded integrations to the voice command assistant Siri. Future integrations may also include other Apple products such as the vision pro for preoperative and intraoperative applications. Considering the popularity of Apple products, particularly the iPhone, it is important to appraise this new technology and how it can be leveraged to enhance patient care, improve neurosurgical education, and facilitate more efficiency for the neurosurgeon.
