This may not be the only build Apple releases this week. The second build of the current developer beta program, which includes iOS 18.3 and iPadOS 18.3, is expected to be released as well. The iOS 18.3 might not come with yet another batch of Apple Intelligence features, however, in March we can anticipate the release of iOS 18.4 which might be packed with more Apple Intelligence features with the inclusion of a more personal Siri.
