Apple Intelligence does not run on Intel-based Macs.macOS Sequoia 15.1 or later.

For example, Sequoia 15.1 includes the first set of features; Sequoia 15.2 added Image Playground and ChatGPT support.Apple Intelligence currently supports only localized English. Apple plans to add more language support beginning in April 2025, inlcuding Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, and Vietnamese.

In the European Union, M-series Macs running macOS Sequoia 15.1 or later can run Apple Intelligence while using a currently supported language.Apple Intelligence does not work on Macs purchased in mainland China. If the Mac was bought outside of mainland China, your Apple Account Country/Region cannot be set to mainland China if you want Apple Intelligence to work.How to turn on Apple IntelligenceTo have Apple Intelligence features appear, it needs to be turned on. You can repeat this process to turn it off if you dont want to use the features.Click on the Apple menu and select System Settings.In the left column, look for Apple Intelligence & Siri and click it.In the main section of the window, a switch for Apple Intelligence appears at the top. Click it once to turn it on.FoundryHow to turn on ChatGPTChatGPT is a chatbot developed by OpenAI, a third-party company, and it can create responses that are human-like. Apple and OpenAI entered a partnership last year and ChatGPT support was introduced in macOS Sequoia 15.2. Apple may release its own chatbot in macOS 16, but for now ChatGPT is the only option.To use ChatGPT, the ChatGPT extension needs to be activated. You can also turn it off whenever you want. Heres how.Click on the Apple menu and select System Settings.In the left column, click on Apple Intelligence & Siri.In the main section of the window, look for the Extensions section at the bottom (you may have to scroll). Click ChatGPT.At the top, flip the switch for ChatGPT.If you have a ChatGPT account, you can log into it by clicking on the Sign In button in the ChatGPT Account section. This is not required to use ChatGPT features on the Mac but will open more advanced features.At the bottom of the main window, you can toggle a Siri setting for Confirm ChatGPT Requests. When enabled, it will ask you if its OK to send information to ChatGPT every time it needs to fulfill a Siri request.FoundryWe have a guide on how ChatGPT is implemented and how it can be used. The guide is written for iOS, but the information applies to macOS Sequoia, as well.What are the Apple Intelligence features on the Mac?Many Apple Intelligence features dont require you to do anything, such as summaries in Messages, Mail, and Notifications, as they appear automatically. As for features you can use on an as-needed basis, heres a quick list.Image Playground (macOS Sequoia 15.2)Image Playground is a standalone Apple intelligence-powered app that is installed on your Mac when you upgrade to macOS Sequoia 15.2. The app creates illustrations based on descriptions based on text prompts. You can also upload photos of people as the basis for a new illustration. However, Image Playground does not create deepfake photo-like images or modify existing photosit only creates illustrations.The Image Playground app is part of macOS Sequoia 15.2FoundryMail (macOS Sequoia 15.1)There are a couple of new features in Mail powered by Apple Intelligence. A new Show Priority feature will display time-sensitive emails at the top of your inbox. Additionally, short summaries will appear under each email so you can see whats inside at a glance, and when you open an email, a Summarize button can be used to generate a synopsis. Also, when composing messages, Mail has suggested replies as well as Writing Tools to help you clean up replies and refine the language of what youve written. And ChatGPT can compose text if you enable it above.Photos Clean-up tool (macOS Sequoia 15.1)In the Photos app, when editing a photo, youll find a Clean-Up button. With this tool, you can erase unwanted items, and Photos will fill in the background with its best guess about what would have been there. In the before and after images below, the Clean-up tool was used to remove objects and a sign in the background. Use the slider to see the difference.Siri (macOS Sequoia 15.1)Siri has a new wrap-around look on the edge of your Macs display, and it does a better job of understanding natural speaking, like if you stumble or restate when you are saying. Later in 2025, a new update will make Siri smarter and more screen-aware.Writing Tools (macOS Sequoia 15.1)In Mail, Pages, and other Apple apps, youll find new tools to help improve your writing. It can proofread, revise, and even offer rewrite suggestions. With ChatGPT enabled, you can also compose messages from scratch. FoundryAlso read: Where is Apple Intelligence on an iPhone?

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is finally coming to PC on January 23rd, almost a year since launching on PS5. Between all the awards and overwhelming critical support, there are a lot of expectations from this port.Its pretty much the same in terms of story and content with no DLC forthcoming, but there are several new graphical options to put it over the console version. Here are 15 things you should know about the acclaimed RPG before picking it up on PC (which is currently discounted by 30 percent until launch).SettingWithout getting into spoilers for the first part, Final Fantasy 7Rebirthventures beyond Midgar into the wider world. From the quaint village of Kalm, players will navigate extensive plains, visit cities like Junon and Costa del Sol, and much more. Some locations from the original arent present inRebirth, though they will appear in the third part. The same goes for Cids airship, the Highwind. Nevertheless, the world is teeming with side quests and secrets, including the usual towers to uncover neighboring activities.Exploration and TraversalWhile Final Fantasy 7Rebirthdoes feature a fair number of linear areas, the larger open regions are arguably the main highlight. The size and scale of these locations are such that there are even different Chocobo types with unique movement abilities to help get around, from climb climbers to flyers. You even get a buggy at one point which can traverse all kinds of terrain.CharactersCloud, Tifa, Barrett, Aerith and Red XIII return from the first part, with new abilities and skills to their repertoires. This time, Red XIII is playable and packs Vengeance Mode, which improves his damage and speed while allowing him to leech health from enemies. Yuffie joins the party after appearing in Episode INTERmission and still carries over the ability to imbue weapons with different elements.Finally, theres Cait Sith, whos skills change depending on whether hes on his Moogle, and whose name youve probably been pronouncing wrong since the original Final Fantasy 7. Of course, there are other characters youll encounter, even though the likes of Vincent Valentine arent playable, but youll have to play it yourself.Combat ImprovementsThough it uses the same combat system as Remake with the ATB Gauge and Limit Breaks,Rebirthexpands on it in numerous ways. You can acquire dual-type Materia to harness, say, two different elements on top of various other options. Folios are utilized to upgrade your character with SP and are the key to unlocking Synergy Abilities. New Summons like Phoenix, Bahamut Arisen, Titan, and more have also been added.Synergy AbilitiesYou also have new Synergy Abilities, essentially team-ups between two party members. Depending on the current party, these can unleash powerful attacks that deal massive damage up close and at range (with a few defensive options also available). The best part is that they dont require spending ATB bars, thus providing another resource to decimate enemies.Mini-GamesIf theres one another pillar that defines theRebirthexperience, its the mini-games. Queens Blood is a standalone card game with its own side quest chain while Fort Condor offers some tower defense fun. The Junon Parade has also been expanded into something spectacular and the Gold Saucer is jam-packed with the likes of Galactic Saviors, G-Bike, 3D Brawler, and more. Do you need to ace them all? No, but they offer tons of additional fun regardless.Nvidia DLSS and VRR SupportNvidia DLSS is available out of the box for improved frame rates, which should also help those struggling with performance. The developer also confirmed that Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) is supported, which is a good thing given the higher frame rates.Up to 4K and120 FPS supportFor all its visual beauty on PS5 and even PS5 Pro, Final Fantasy 7Rebirths upper limit is 4K/60 FPS (and that resolution is achieved with PSSRs upscaling). The PC version also supports resolutions up to 4K but it also offers frame rates up to 120 frames per second. Long story short, if you want to experience the RPG in the most visually pleasing way possible, the PC version looks to be the ticket.Graphics Presets and OptionsWhile the full range of graphics settings has yet to be revealed, there will be three presets: Low, Medium and High. Players can also adjust the background model level of detail and texture MIPmaps to enhance the visuals more. This should result in the PC version offering the highest level of graphical fidelity.Lighting Improvements and Customizable On-Screen NPC CountThe developer touts lighting adjustments for the PC version alongside significantly improved light rendering. The results also apply to cutscenes, making them look even better than before. You can also customize the number of on-screen NPCs for further performance gains.DualSense SupportLike many of Sonys ports of first-party PS5 exclusives, Final Fantasy 7Rebirthon PC will support the DualSense controller. Furthermore, it features the same controls as on console, allowing fans of the console version to seamlessly translate their experience over to PC.Keyboard and Mouse SupportThose who prefer to play on a mouse and keyboard are also in luck asRebirthsupports both on PC. Furthermore, you can remap them according to different activities with separate configurations for combat, mini-games and exploration.Steam Deck SupportHaving an experience like this on the go would be truly something. And while the developer hasnt quite given it the Steam Deck approved label, it is working diligently on optimizations to ensure the Steam version is playable on the handheld.PC RequirementsWith everything that Final Fantasy 7Rebirthoffers on PC, its no surprise that the requirements can be hefty, especially on the low end. To play at Low settings and 1080p/30 FPS, you need a Ryzen 5 1400 or Intel Core 14-8100, a Radeon RX 6600, Intel Arc 1580 or Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060, and 16 GB of RAM. For Medium settings and 1080p/60 FPS, a Ryzen 5 5600, Ryzen 7 3700X, Core i7-8700, or Core i5-10400, a Radeon RX 6700 XT or GeForce RTX 2070, and 16 GB of RAM are necessary. Its worth noting that playing at 4K on either Low or Medium requires a GPU with at least 12 GB VRAM.As for High settings at 2160p/60 FPS, a Ryzen 7 5700X or Core i7-10700, a Radeon RX 7900 XTX or GeForce RTX 4080, and 16 GB RAM are needed. This time, a GPU with 16 GB VRAM or higher is required for playing in 4K. Windows 11 64-bit is mandatory for the Recommended and Ultra requirements, and if that wasnt enough, you need a whopping 155 GB of installation space on a solid-state drive.PlaytimeMuch has been made about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirths extensive playtime the developer revealed before the PS5 versions launch that it had double the side content of Remake. Sure enough, HowLongToBeat reveals that the main story and extra content take about 91.5 hours on average to beat (with the main story only requiring 47.5 hours). And if you opt to complete everything? It could easily take about 167 hours.

In the doldrums of winter, Ive reached for comfort media which, for me, means Chinese historical dramas. And while the elaborate costumes and overly sweet romances are enjoyable, sometimes a girl wants something with a little more teeth. Dynasty Warriors: Origins has given me exactly what I needed.Dynasty Warriors: Origins, developed by Koei-Tecmos Omega Force, adapts the famous Chinese historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms into knock down, drag out, 1 vs 100 style battles. This is the tenth game in the series, coming at a time when the Dynasty Warriors franchise had gotten a reputation for being stale. After all, theres only so many times you can retread the same story with the same characters and the same general gameplay without getting one note. Dynasty Warriors: Origins, however, is a welcome refreshment over its predecessors.Cao Cao can always be counted on to put his ambition on display. Image: Koei-TecmoAfter releasing Dynasty Warriors 9 in 2018, Omega Force took a break from the series to work on licensed games like Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Persona 5 Strikers, and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. That detour through games that I felt were excellent applications of Omega Forces brand of hack-and-slash action gave the studio the new perspective it needed to come back to its signature franchise and shake shit up.In Origins, instead of bouncing between different characters during certain battles as you had in previous games, you witness the story through a single character named the Wanderer. You have no memory of yourself, and as you progress, you slowly regain your memories and special powers. The Wanderer can use any type of weapon, which is another welcome change from previous games that locked weapons to a certain character. Each weapon has abilities you unlock through continued use, and the Wanderer himself has skills and perks he unlocks via skill trees.Combat in Origins is simple to get the hang of. You have a light attack and a heavy attack that can be modified by using your dodge or jump. Theres also a suite of abilities that consume a resource called bravery that you earn by landing hits on your opponent. Finally, theres block and parry mechanics and an ultimate ability called musou used when youre impossibly surrounded or need to put extra hurt on an enemy general.While this all sounds like your standard hack-and-slash game, I was pleased Origins made me work for my victories. Even on the standard difficulty and with years of experience playing Warriors games, I couldnt just blindly hack my way through enemies. Generals hit surprisingly hard, and if I wasnt using my various abilities to mitigate or counter their attacks, theyd continuously generate shields Id have to keep chewing through to take them down. Unfortunately, your allied generals, whose deaths can result in an automatic loss, are made of tissue paper, so the longer enemy generals are alive, the higher your chances are of losing a battle. Its great fun knocking around scores of enemies as The Wanderer. Image: Koei-TecmoBattles take place on large, winding maps stuffed with bases to take over and enemy generals to defeat. Even though defeating the enemy leader while keeping your own leaders alive is generally the only win condition, I loved being a completionist. When I got a panicked cry for help from my allies, it was fun rushing to their defense even if helping didnt make the battle end sooner. It made me feel like a big damn hero. And isnt that the whole point of a game that lets you fight alongside the legendary characters of Chinese history?Playing the hero is the best part about Origins and whats been sorely missing from the franchise. Earlier games were burdened with unnecessary systems like the atrocious, poorly-paced open world of Dynasty Warriors 9 or the no-thoughts, head-empty button mashing of Dynasty Warriors 8. But in Origins, executing a special ability pulled you into an elaborate cutscene with animations that look like they were ripped straight out of a wuxia film. My choices in the games story moments let me build relationships with characters I have loved so much across so many different mediums. I do understand other reviews criticisms of the Wanderer. As a character he has no personality to speak of, and his quest to regain his memories isnt compelling. But I can easily overlook that because this is Dynasty Warriors. All Im here for, and what this game has given me in spades, is to eat meat buns and pursue Lu Bu and Im all out of meat buns.Dynasty Warriors: Origins is out now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse star Jharrel Jerome has dashed hopes that the highly anticipated third film Beyond the Spider-Verse is releasing anytime soon, saying he hasn't even recorded lines yet.Jerome told Decider that production on the presumed finale hasn't started up yet as a lot of things are "being figured out." That being said, many didn't necessarily expect it to come anytime soon given the second film arrived five years after the first in 2023."No, I wish," Jerome said when asked if production had begun. "We havent started up yet. A lot of things being figured out, but good things."All the Spideys in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Full Spoilers Edition)Jerome didn't have a huge role in the second film but seemingly will in the third as, spoiler warning for Across the Spider-Verse's finale, he appears set to play its main antagonist. Jerome played Miles G. Morales from Earth-42, a version of Miles who appears at the end of the film not as Spider-Man but the Prowler.Life for this Miles wasn't as positive as it was for the series' protagonist, as the radioactive spider due to bite the former shifted to the latter's reality and bit him instead. Miles G. Morales therefore didn't become Spider-Man, and once his universe's Peter Parker died, New York became ruled by supervillains and he became one too.The rest of that story, and how it clashes with the main Miles who did become Spider-Man, will likely unfold in Beyond the Spider-Verse, but fans will still be waiting a while before they get to see it.It isn't expected until 2026 at the earliest according to Deadline, though as mentioned, keeping pace with the last film's release would see it released in 2028.Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He'll talk about The Witcher all day.
