Apple Execs Get Seriously Flustered Trying to Explain the Company's Dismal AI Failure

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-18 08:36:54

Apple is facing some intense scrutiny after yet again flubbing its AI tech. During the company's Worldwide Developers Conference on Tuesday, the company showed off its latest vision for "Apple Intelligence," a suite of tools that use machine learning to scan images for objects or smush emojis together to form custom Franken-reacts — cutesy ideas that fall vastly short of the ambition of competitors in the space like OpenAI. The Wall Street Journal's Joanna Stern sat down with Apple's software

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-19 15:04:13

But since iPads have been using the same chips as Macs since 2021, why did it take so long? That’s the question Apple’s software head Craig Federighi sets out to answer in a new interview … iPadOS 26 is so ground-breaking that I argued Apple has finally turned the device into something worthy of the term ‘computer.’ The biggest change by far is proper w

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-19 17:20:40

CUPERTINO, Calif.—When Apple Senior Vice President of Software Engineering Craig Federighi introduced the new multitasking UI in iPadOS 26 at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference this week, he did it the same way he introduced the Calculator app for the iPad last year, or timers in the iPad's Clock app the year before—with a hint of sarcasm. "Wow," Federighi enthuses in a lightly exaggerated tone about an hour and 19 minutes into a 90-minute presentation. "More windows, a pointier poin

The Best Meat Subscription Boxes, Tested and Reviewed (2025)

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-06-04 10:33:00

The first reason ButcherBox earned our top spot is the packaging, which was much sturdier than several other boxes we tried. The last thing anyone wants is to come home to a box of spoiled meat. The second is sourcing transparency. While humane-washing is a real thing and ButcherBox does not disclose the names of specific farms it works with, it offers third-party oversight, like Certified Humane and USDA Organic certification. It’s not perfect, but it’s something. You can select from two subsc

The widespread layoff of Department of Agriculture scientists has thrown vital research into disarray, according to former and current employees of the agency. Scientists hit by the layoffs were working on projects to improve crops, defend against pests and disease, and understand the climate impact of farming practices.
