"Adding a large language model to Shortcuts means it's easier to build automations that can simplify your life. Here's how: How This Works Head to Apple Shortcuts, create a new shortcut, and you'll see "Apple Intelligence" as one of the listed applications that's supported. There are a few Actions related to text, allowing you to do things like proofread, summarize, and make a list from text. You also get the ability to create an image, if you want."
"For my money, though, the most useful Action offered is "Use Model," mostly because of how open-ended it is. With this you can choose between three models-the totally offline and private model running on your device, a server offered by Apple using the same models, or even ChatGPT (no subscription or API key necessary). You can write any prompt you want, allowing you to manipulate text in all kinds of useful ways."
Apple Shortcuts now supports Apple Intelligence, adding Actions for text tasks like proofreading, summarizing, list-making, and image creation. The 'Use Model' Action offers three options: a private on-device model, an Apple-hosted server model, or ChatGPT without a subscription or API key. Prompts can manipulate text arbitrarily to automate workflows such as extracting event details from messages and adding them to calendars. Shortcuts automations like a daily journal can pull weather, quotes, and structures automatically. The integration makes building useful, repeatable automations easier and can save time for routine tasks.
