Apple Intelligence could solve my coding struggles — but this key feature is nowhere to be seen
- Learning to code in Swift led the writer to lose interest due to lack of motivation and assistance after two decades of not coding.
- The writer feels that an AI assistant like Apple's Swift Assist could have been beneficial in writing challenging code segments.
- However, Apple's Swift Assist feature, announced at WWDC 2024, is still missing and not available in Xcode or macOS beta as promised.
- Apple stated that Swift Assist would have in-depth knowledge of Swift coding language and APIs, setting it apart from other AI development tools.
- Swift Assist is designed to run in the cloud without storing user code on Apple's servers, ensuring privacy and security of proprietary code.
- The delay in Swift Assist's release is seen as part of Apple's broader issues with delayed AI features, including enhancements to Siri.
- Despite the delay, the writer hopes Apple prioritizes the release of Swift Assist to provide valuable assistance to developers while maintaining privacy.
- The writer highlights the importance of privacy in using AI tools like Swift Assist, as opposed to alternatives like ChatGPT that may pose data security risks.
- Apple's delay in releasing Swift Assist could lead developers to seek solutions from competitors like ChatGPT without the same privacy assurances from Apple.
- Apple's progress on Swift Assist is still awaited, with hopes that it becomes a valuable resource for both experienced and novice developers in the future.
