New Apple TV 4K could be launching at the best possible moment

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2026-03-20 15:27:06

Believe it or not, the first Apple TV product preceded even the iPhone with its initial introduction. Yet for almost two decades, the product has remained fairly niche in Apple’s lineup. But the new Apple TV 4K launching this fall could be the best chance yet to change that. New Apple TV 4K might be the first to go mainstream In the early days of the Apple TV, the product was referred to by Apple as a “hobby.” It wasn’t expected to achieve the kind of success found by the Mac or iPod, or subs

A young, energetic star has had just about enough of its clingy planet. The pair are mired in a toxic relationship, with the planet sending waves of energy toward the star—and the host star is responding with violent explosions that are destroying its planet over time. Using the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Cheops mission, a team of astronomers from the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy gathered evidence for the first known exoplanet with an apparent death wish.

On January 29, a Blackhawk helicopter crashed into a commercial airliner in the skies over Washington, DC. The collision killed all 67 people on board both aircraft, including the pilots. But online, a different pilot—one that wasn’t even present—was being blamed for the tragedy. Within two days, the rumor spread like wildfire.

Apple's AI Research Has Failed So Spectacularly That It's Considering Just Letting OpenAI Power Siri

For the past few months, Apple has been mired in a tangled legal web of its own making. When the tech giant released the iPhone 16 back in September of 2024, it promised customers a suite of shiny new "Apple Intelligence" features, which would "roll out later this year and in the months following." At the crux of the sales pitch was a commitment to release an AI-powered version of Siri — in other words, a large language model (LLM) upgrade to Siri's ancient algorithm — which the company said co
