Lordy I’ve been waiting for hours and days for it to be accepted. How come I got 18.1 apple intelligence beta accepted in a matter of minutes? It just doesn’t make sense

Guys I found a way of generating images without Image Playground. I'm assuming you guys have the 18.2 beta installed, which means Chatgpt should be integrated into Siri, if not turned on already. Basically you just ask Siri to ask Chatgpt to generate an image. Chatgpt does create one. It's really not the same and not as seamless, but it's an okay workaround I've tried researching of how to skip the waitlist and using Image Playground, but I personally haven't found anything Honestly, you should just wait for some time until you get access. At some point we will get permission

What possibly happened is that the available slots filled up quickly, and that Apple is working to make more in the coming weeks, as described by Jimscard in his reply to this thread: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/767184

I'm having the same problem. Basically available early access slots filled up quickly, and Apple is going to make more in the coming weeks. So all we do is just wait https://x.com/markgurman/status/1849968331337630108 However, if you are tired of waiting, there is a workaround. Simply ask Siri to ask Chatgpt to generate an image. It's not the same but at least it works Hope this helped :)
