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

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-21 12:11:14

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

After two weeks on Disney Plus, Ironheart aired its season finale during a three-episode drop on Tuesday night. Though the show didn't serve as a vehicle for Riri Williams' introduction into the Marvel universe, it's brought in new and not-so-new characters that we recognize from the comic books and greater MCU -- even if some of them were only present in spirit.

It might feel like a distant memory, but in 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic radically transformed how people lived, and specifically how they worked. At the time, plenty of health experts, CEOs, and publications (including WIRED) predicted that Covid would grind business travel to a halt indefinitely. If our day-to-day tasks and meetings could happen using Zoom, Slack, and other online tools, the logic went, then why not apply that same digital-first philosophy to work trips?

Rivian receives the next $1B from Volkswagen as sales struggles continue

techcrunch.com Sean O'Kane 2026-02-21 12:00:48

Rivian has hit a milestone in its agreement with German automotive giant Volkswagen that will bring $1 billion into the EV startup’s coffers in the form of a share sale. Rivian also announced Wednesday that it delivered 10,661 vehicles in the second quarter. That represents a 23% drop in sales from the second quarter of 2024, and only a slight improvement over Rivian’s rough first quarter, when it delivered 8,640 EVs.

There’s a better Nothing Phone 3 variant, and you can’t buy it in the US

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Nothing has confirmed that the Indian version of the Nothing Phone 3 has a 5,500mAh battery. Other versions of the phone have a slightly smaller 5,150mAh battery. We’re guessing that this discrepancy is related to EU regulations regarding the transport of batteries. The Nothing Phone 3 finally launched yesterday, and it looks like a well-rounded Android phone with a polarizing design. However, it turns out that one regional variant has a bigger batter

Galaxy S26 could be getting not one, but two battery upgrades

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is reportedly exploring more advanced “battery protection circuits” for the Galaxy S26 series, along with the previously reported SUS CAN casing. These upgrades could leave room for Samsung to expand the batteries in capacity. However, these upgrades may still not be able to compensate for the lack of a more advanced silicon-carbon battery.

In recent years, gene therapy has emerged as a promising treatment for genetic forms of congenital deafness—hearing loss that’s present at birth—in children. A new study shows that gene therapy can bestow hearing in teenagers and adults with this condition, too. The study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature Medicine, recruited patients with deafness or severe hearing impairment caused by mutations in the OTOF gene.

Chipmakers get larger tax credits in Trump’s latest ‘big beautiful bill’

The latest version of U.S. President Donald Trump's "big beautiful bill" could make it cheaper for semiconductor manufacturers to build plants in the U.S. as Washington continues its efforts to strengthen its domestic chip supply chain. Under the bill, passed by the Senate Tuesday, tax credits for those semiconductor firms would rise to 35% from 25%. That's more than the 30% increase that had made it into a draft version of the bill. Companies eligible for the credits could include chipmakers

That's the somewhat obvious-sounding conclusion of an MIT study that looked at how people think when they write an essay -- one of the earliest scientific studies of how using gen AI affects us.
