9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-10-21 03:42:58

It looks like Meta’s hiring freeze definitely does not apply to Apple engineers. As reported by Bloomberg, Jian Zhang, Apple’s Lead AI Researcher for Robotics, will be joining the Meta Robotics Studio. And he’s not the only one leaving. Here are the details. Apple’s AI alternatives (and teams) keep getting slimmer Last month, following a report that said that, despite Meta’s hiring freeze, there could be exceptions, Bloomberg reported that the company had poached Frank Chu, “who has led Apple

What did this have to do with the film we’d been watching? What did it have to do with what’s coming next? We finally have some answers. Those answers are coming in 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, which opens in theaters January 16, 2026. That’s a

Nvidia's Blackwell GPUs move robotics into the physical AI era

The concept of physical AI is that many of the same algorithmic principles used to create large language models for text-based interactions can be applied to learning and replicating physical movements in the real world.
