Apple’s iPad “Let Loose” event is just over a week away, and the rumors are starting to get interesting. According to Bloomberg‘c Mark German, the long-awaited OLED iPad Pro may arrive not with the new M3 chip as we all expected, but instead with the next-generation M4. IN Included newsletter on Sunday, Gurman wrote that he “hears there is a strong possibility” that this is the case. And he says it will herald Apple’s official foray into AI.

“I believe Apple will position the tablet as its first truly AI-powered device — and that from then on it will advertise every new product as an AI device,” Gurman wrote. If we do it this way for the May 7 event, we’ll set the stage for Apple to go all-in on AI at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June. All of this is based on Gourmand previous reports that Apple has been in talks with OpenAI and Google about potentially using their AI technology for new features with iOS 18.

The “Let Loose” product showcase is also expected to bring updates to the iPad Air and iPad accessories such as the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil. According to German, the upcoming Apple Pencil could introduce haptic feedback.
