  • iOS 18 can do math calculations within any text field, using the keyboard.
  • Apple’s iOS 18 will become available publicly this Fall, 2024.

Apple’s iOS 18 developer beta software became available soon after the WWDC 2024 event. We actually tested it already, if you’re interested. Many users who dare venture into this experimental software are finding even more improvements Apple didn’t even cover in its announcement, such as this one.

X user @rjonesy discovered that iOS 18 allows you to do math calculations within any text field, using the keyboard. So, when you’re chatting with a friend and need to handle some math, you no longer need to look for the calculator app. Just type the problem right into the same text field, and iOS 18 will give you the solution. You can then opt to show just the final answer, or display the whole math problem along with the answer. You can see a sample in the image below.

So to get a better idea of how AI is affecting biotech in 2022, we asked six investors to tell us what they look for in a biotech startup today. For Franck Lescure, a partner at Elaia Partners, in biotech, having an AI component isn’t an automatic deal closer. “We do not favor biotech startups with extant AI over those without: Bio-revolution is not only digital. Digital is one tool; the other major tool is the livin
