A $599 iPhone 16e is a cruel joke

engadget.com Unknown 2025-06-04 10:05:07

The $599 iPhone 16e is many things, but don't you dare call it a budget phone. I hesitate to even call it "cheap." As a successor to the $429 iPhone SE, it's hard not to see the 16e as a disappointment. Sure, it's $200 less than the vanilla iPhone 16 (which I argued was a great deal at launch), and the 16e also packs in the latest A18 chip with support for Apple Intelligence. But it's no longer a small phone, and it pushes Apple's cheaper iPhone option well beyond $500. That's something we'll li

ZDNET Generative AI (Gen AI) has eliminated much of the grunt work of building applications for professional software developers. Now, the question is: can citizen developers also benefit from this new paradigm in code creation? Some experts certainly think so. Over the coming year, citizen developers will deliver 30% of Gen AI-infused automation apps, predicted Craig Le Clair, principal analyst with Forrester.

I’m Not Convinced Ethical Generative AI Currently Exists

wired.com Reece Rogers 2025-06-04 07:30:00

Are there generative AI tools I can use that are perhaps slightly more ethical than others? —Better Choices No, I don't think any one generative AI tool from the major players is more ethical than any other. Here’s why. For me, the ethics of generative AI use can be broken down to issues with how the models are developed—specifically, how the data used to train them was accessed—as well as ongoing concerns about their environmental impact.

Apple Intelligence is available for iPhone 15 Pro and later, but there’s an exclusive feature for iPhone 16 models, which is Visual Intelligence.

Apple's iPhone 16E Brings Apple Intelligence Features With a Cheaper Price Tag

cnet.com Abrar Al-Heeti 2025-06-04 14:00:11

Until now, Apple Intelligence has been reserved for the cool kids – aka, the people with the latest, most powerful iPhones. Now, the $599 (£599, AU$999) iPhone 16E is here to shake that up. Apple's latest version of its budget phone line invariably cuts corners when it comes to design and camera specs, but it doesn't hold back with AI.
