AFM 3 Core
AFM 3 Core is a third-generation Apple Foundation Model published at WWDC26 as part of Apple Intelligence. The compact dense model is optimized for Apple silicon and local everyday text tasks. Access is integrated into Apple operating-system features rather than provided as freely downloadable weights. Availability depends on the device, software version, and supported feature. The June 8 date records the published generation; it does not imply that every consumer feature became generally available that day.
