Former Siri boss behind delayed Apple Intelligence features leaving the company

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-10-02 19:24:49

After announcing a much more capable version of Siri in June 2024, Apple delayed the Apple Intelligence-powered version of the personal assistant in May 2025. Around that time, there was a now-infamous pep talk given to the Siri team by the then-senior director of the project. Robby Walker wasn’t a name most Apple followers would recognize, but the Siri senior director’s reported speech to rally the engineers behind the incomplete effort stood out.

The iPhone Air Could Trigger a Thin Phone Avalanche

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-02 18:59:00

The biggest announcement coming out of the iPhone 17 series' launch event earlier this week wasn't about the most powerful iPhone yet -- it was for the thinnest. At 5.6mm, or less than a quarter of an inch, the iPhone Air stole the show. And even though it was far from the first mainstream "thin phone," it may just kick off the trend in a major way in the years to come. There's a long-running sentiment in the mobile industry around Apple's impact on phone trends: Once the iPhone-maker makes a s
