Apple doesn’t have a reputation for letting engineers slack. I have to guess they are working like dogs to meet some standard before they are willing to release.
They don’t have a reputation for releasing hardware without software to back it either. One way or another, an unprecedented process failure has occurred.
It clearly wasn't ready. My guess: the powers that be decided they had to make a public showing of being an AI company, hence the giant marketing push ahead of release.
It's unknown how useful any of this will be in day to day use-cases.
Apple of yesteryear would issue a patch update model and let this feature cook until it was ready for release. Current approach is sloppy in a decidedly un-Apple way.
Which boggles the mind… did nobody tell the software team that a release was coming?

I don't think Apple can simply delay an iPhone. There's entire industries relying on there being a new iPhone out every September.

And it’s not coming to the European Union.
