Hello, I'm trying to write a model with PyTorch and convert it to CoreML. I wrote another models and that works succesfully, even the one that gave the problem is, but I can't visualize it with XCode to know where is running. The error that appear is: There was a problem decoding this Core ML document validator error: unable to open file for read Anyone knows why is this happening? Thanks a lot, Álvaro Corrochano

HI, I've been modifying the Camera sample app found here: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/sample-apps/capturingphotos-camerapreview ... in the processpreview images, I am calling in to the Vision APis to either detect a person or object, then I'm using the segmentation mask to extract the person and composite them onto a different background with some other filters. I am using coreimage to filter the CIImages, and converting and displaying as a SwiftUI Image. When running on my IPhone, it works fine. When running on my Iphone with the debugger, it crashes within a few seconds... Attached is a screenshot. At the top is an EXC_BAD_ACCESS in libRPAC.dylib`std::__1::__hash_table<std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::__unordered_map_hasher<long, std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::hash, std::__1::equal_to, true>, std::__1::__unordered_map_equal<long, std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>, std::__1::equal_to, std::__1::hash, true>, std::__1::allocator<std::__1::__hash_value_type<long, qos_info_t>>>::__emplace_unique_key_args<long, std::__1::piecewise_construct_t const&, std::__1::tuple<long const&>, std::__1::tuple<>>: This was working fine a couple of days ago.. Not sure why it's popping up now. Am I correct in interpreting this as an LLDB issue? How do I fix it?

Hi, I am developing an iOS application that utilizes Apple’s Foundation Models to perform certain summarization tasks. I would like to understand whether user data is transferred to Private Cloud Compute (PCC) in cases where the computation cannot be performed entirely on-device. This information is critical for our internal security and compliance reviews. I would appreciate your clarification on this matter. Thank you.

I am writing an app that parses text and conducts some actions. I don't want to give too much away ;) However, I am having a huge problem with token sizes. LanguageModelSession will of course give me the on device model 4096 available, but when you go over 4096, my code doesn't seem to be falling back to PCC, or even the system configured ChatGPT. Can anyone assist me with this? For some reason, after reading the docs, it's very unclear how this transition between the three takes place.

Hi everyone, I’m working on an iOS app that uses a Core ML model to run live image recognition. I’ve run into a persistent issue with the mlpackage not being turned into a swift class. This following error is in the code, and in carDetection.mlpackage, it says that model class has not been generated yet. The error in the code is as follows: What I’ve tried: Verified Target Membership is checked for carDetectionModel.mlpackage Confirmed the file is listed under Copy Bundle Resources (and removed from Compile Sources) Cleaned the build folder (Shift + Cmd + K) and rebuilt Renamed and re-added the .mlpackage file Restarted Xcode and re-added the file Logged bundle contents at runtime, but the .mlpackage still doesn’t appear The mlpackage is in Copy bundle resources, and is not in the compile sources. I just don't know why a swift class is not being generated for the mlpackage. Could someone please give me some guidance on what to do to resolve this issue? Sorry if my error is a bit naive, I'm pretty new to iOS app development

I'm working on a to-do list app that uses SpeechTranscriber and Foundation Models framework to transcribe a user's voice into text and create to-do items based off of it. After about 30 minutes looking at my code, I couldn't figure out why I was failing to generate a to-do for "I need to go to Six Flags Great America tomorrow at 3pm." It turns out, I was consistently firing the Foundation Models's safety filter violation for unsafe content ("May contain unsafe content"). Lesson learned: consider comprehensively logging Foundation Models error states to quickly identify when safety filters are unexpectedly triggered.

Apple's Image Playground primarily performs image generation on-device, but can use secure Private Cloud Compute for more complex requests that require larger models. Private Cloud Compute (PCC) For more complex tasks that require greater computational power than the device can provide, Image Playground leverages Apple's Private Cloud Compute. This system extends the privacy and security of the device to the cloud: Secure Environment: PCC runs on Apple silicon servers and uses a secure enclave to protect data, ensuring requests are processed in a verified, secure environment. No Data Storage: Data is never stored or made accessible to Apple when using PCC; it is used only to fulfill the specific request. Independent Verification: Independent experts are able to inspect the code running on these servers to verify Apple's privacy promises.

I'm testing Foundation Model on my iPad Pro (5th gen) iOS 26. Up until late this morning, I can no longer load the SystemLanguageModel.default. I'm not doing anything interesting, something as basic as this is only going to unavailable, specifically I get unavailable reason: modelNotReady. let model = SystemLanguageModel.default ... switch model.availability { case .available: print("LM available") case .unavailable(let reason): print("unavailable reason: ", String(describing: reason)) } I also ran the FoundationModelsTripPlanner app, same thing. It was working yesterday, I have not modified that project either. Why is the Model not ready? How do I fix this? Yes, I tried restarting both my laptop and iPad, no luck.

I have an app that stores lots of data that is of interest to the user. Analogies would be the Photos apps or the Health app. I'm trying to use the Foundation Models framework to allow users to surface information they find interesting using natural language, for example, "Tell me about the widgets from yesterday" or "Tell me about the widgets for the last 3 days". Specifically, I'm trying to get a date range passed down to the Tool so that I can pull the relevant widgets from the database in the call function. What is the right way to set up the Arguments to get at a date range?

Hi, I'm trying to use the new RecognizeDocumentsRequest from the Vision Framework to read a receipt. It looks very promising by being able to read paragraphs, lines and detect data. So far it unfortunately seems to read every line on the receipt as a paragraph and when there is more space on one line it creates two paragraphs. Is there perhaps an Apple Engineer who knows if this is expected behaviour or if I should file a Feedback for this? Code setup: let request = RecognizeDocumentsRequest() let observations = try await request.perform(on: image) guard let document = observations.first?.document else { return } for paragraph in document.paragraphs { print(paragraph.transcript) for data in paragraph.detectedData { switch data.match.details { case .phoneNumber(let data): print("Phone: \(data)") case .postalAddress(let data): print("Postal: \(data)") case .calendarEvent(let data): print("Calendar: \(data)") case .moneyAmount(let data): print("Money: \(data)") case .measurement(let data): print("Measurement: \(data)") default: continue } } } See attached image as an example of a receipt I'd like to parse. The top 3 lines are the name, street, and postal code + city. These are all separate paragraphs. Checking on detectedData does see the street (2nd line) as PostalAddress, but not the complete address. Might that be a location thing since it's a Dutch address. And lower on the receipt it sees the block with "Pomp 1 95 Ongelood" and the things below also as separate paragraphs. First picking up the left side and after that the right side. So it's something like this: * Pomp 1 Volume Prijs € TOTAAL * BTW Netto 21.00 % 95 Ongelood 41,90 l 1.949/ 1 81.66 € 14.17 67.49

No matter what, the LanguageModelSession always returns very lengthy / verbose responses. I set the maximumResponseTokens option to various small numbers but it doesn't appear to have any effect. I've even used this instructions format to keep responses between 3-8 words but it returns multiple paragraphs. Is there a way to manage LLM response length? Thanks.

Hello, I'm using videotoolbox superresolution API in MACOS 26: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/videotoolbox/vtsuperresolutionscalerconfiguration/downloadconfigurationmodel(completionhandler:)?language=objc, when using swift, it's ok, when using objective-c, I get error when downloading model with downloadConfigurationModelWithCompletionHandler: [Auto] MA-auto{_failedLockContent} | failure reported by server | error:[com.apple.MobileAssetError.AutoAsset:MissingReference(6111)] [Auto] MA-auto{_failedLockContent} | failure reported by server | error:[com.apple.MobileAssetError.AutoAsset:UnderlyingError(6107)_1_com.apple.MobileAssetError.Download:47] Download completion handler called with error: The operation couldnxe2x80x99t be completed.

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm exploring the integration of Apple Intelligence features into my mobile application and have a couple of questions regarding the current and upcoming API capabilities: Custom Prompt Support: Is there a way to pass custom prompts to Apple Intelligence to generate specific inferences? For instance, can we provide a unique prompt to the Writing Tools or Image Playground APIs to obtain tailored outputs? Direct Inference Capabilities: Beyond the predefined functionalities like text rewriting or image generation, does Apple Intelligence offer APIs that allow for more generalized inference tasks based on custom inputs? I understand that Apple has provided APIs such as Writing Tools, Image Playground, and Genmoji. However, I'm interested in understanding the extent of customization and flexibility these APIs offer, especially concerning custom prompts and generalized inference. Additionally, are there any plans or timelines for expanding these capabilities, perhaps with the introduction of new SDKs or frameworks that allow deeper integration and customization? Any insights, documentation links, or experiences shared would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hello, I have created this basic swift program: let session = LanguageModelSession( model: .default, instructions: "bla bla bla.") I want to understand what I can put in model parameter (instead of .default). How can I choose between on-device local model (.default I suppose) and apple private cloud model (or any other ?) Thanks

Hello, We have been encountering a persistent crash in our application, which is deployed exclusively on iPad devices. The crash occurs in the following code block: let requestHandler = ImageRequestHandler(paddedImage) var request = CoreMLRequest(model: model) request.cropAndScaleAction = .scaleToFit let results = try await requestHandler.perform(request) The client using this code is wrapped inside an actor, following Swift concurrency principles.

I'm playing with the new Vision API for iOS18, specifically with the new CalculateImageAestheticsScoresRequest API. When I try to perform the image observation request I get this error: internalError("Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-1 \"Failed to create espresso context.\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to create espresso context.}") The code is pretty straightforward: if let image = image { let request = CalculateImageAestheticsScoresRequest() Task { do { let cgImg = image.cgImage! let observations = try await request.perform(on: cgImg) let description = observations.description let score = observations.overallScore print(description) print(score) } catch { print(error) } } } I'm running it on a M2 using the simulator. Is it a bug? What's wrong?

Hello everybody! I’m encountering an unexpected guardrailViolation error when using Foundation Models on macOS Beta 3 (Tahoe) with an Apple M2 Pro chip. This issue didn’t occur on Beta 1 or Beta 2 using the same codebase. Reproduction Context I’m developing an app that leverages Foundation Models for structured generation, paired with a local database tool. After upgrading to macOS Beta 3, I started receiving this error consistently, despite no changes in the generation logic. To isolate the issue, I opened the official WWDC sample project from the Adding intelligent app features with generative models and the same guardrailViolation error appeared without any modifications. Simplified Working Example I attempted to narrow down the issue by starting with a minimal prompt structure. This basic case works fine: import Foundation import Playgrounds import FoundationModels @Generable struct GeneableLandmark { @Guide(description: "Name of the landmark to visit") var name: String } final class LandmarkSuggestionGenerator { var landmarkSuggestion: GeneableLandmark.PartiallyGenerated? private var session: LanguageModelSession init(){ self.session = LanguageModelSession( instructions: Instructions { """ generate a list of landmarks to visit """ } ) } func createLandmarkSuggestion(location: String) async throws { let stream = session.streamResponse( generating: GeneableLandmark.self, options: GenerationOptions(sampling: .greedy), includeSchemaInPrompt: false ) { """ Generate a list of landmarks to viist in \(location) """ } for try await partialResponse in stream { landmarkSuggestion = partialResponse } } } #Playground { let generator = LandmarkSuggestionGenerator() Task { do { try await generator.createLandmarkSuggestion(location: "New york") if let suggestion = generator.landmarkSuggestion { print("Suggested landmark: \(suggestion)") } else { print("No suggestion generated.") } } catch { print("Error generating landmark suggestion: \(error)") } } } But as soon as I use the Sample ItineraryPlanner: #Playground { // Example landmark for demonstration let exampleLandmark = Landmark( id: 1, name: "San Francisco", continent: "North America", description: "A vibrant city by the bay known for the Golden Gate Bridge.", shortDescription: "Iconic Californian city.", latitude: 37.7749, longitude: -122.4194, span: 0.2, placeID: nil ) let planner = ItineraryPlanner(landmark: exampleLandmark) Task { do { try await planner.suggestItinerary(dayCount: 3) if let itinerary = planner.itinerary { print("Suggested itinerary: \(itinerary)") } else { print("No itinerary generated.") } } catch { print("Error generating itinerary: \(error)") } } } The error pops up: Multiline Error generating itinerary: guardrailViolation(FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession. >GenerationError.Context(debug Description: "May contain sensitive or unsafe content", >underlyingErrors: [FoundationModels. LanguageModelSession. Gene >rationError.guardrailViolation(FoundationMo dels. >LanguageModelSession.GenerationError.C ontext (debugDescription: >"May contain unsafe content", underlyingErrors: []))])) Based on my tests: The error may not be tied to structure complexity (since more nested structures work) The issue may stem from the tools or prompt content used inside the ItineraryPlanner The guardrail sensitivity may have increased or changed in Beta 3, affecting models that worked in earlier betas Thank you in advance for your help. Let me know if more details or reproducible code samples are needed - I’m happy to provide them. Best, Sasha Morozov

I want to use Foundation Models in a project, but I know my users will want to avoid environmentally intensive AI work in data centers. Does Foundation Models ever use Private Compute Cloud or any other kind of cloud-based AI system? I'd like to be able to assure my users that the LLM usage is relatively environmentally friendly. It would be great to be able to cite a specific Apple page explaining that Foundation Models work is always done locally. If there's any chance that work can be done in the cloud, is there a way to opt out of that?
