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

futurism.com Unknown 2026-04-17 03:36:54

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.

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-04-17 05:55:49

Today, Apple confirmed (via TechCrunch) that a zero-day flaw used to deploy mercenary spyware onto journalists’ iPhones was quietly patched earlier this year, with the iOS 18.3.1 update.

After 18 Years, Apple Is Killing Its 9-Minute Snooze—That Can Only Mean One Thing

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-04-17 05:45:14

For years, it’s always been nine more measly minutes. If you don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, you’ve probably never owned an iPhone, or you’re one of those freaks who wakes up without a device screaming in your face to do so. If you are in one of those camps, let me explain: for 18 years, Apple has maintained a vice grip on its alarm snooze feature, which grants nine more minutes to your alarm. No more, no less. Just nine minutes. And there’s no adjusting that in settings. No adjusti

Last year, Apple’s WWDC keynote highlighted the company’s ambitious strides in AI.

Nevertheless, Apple still attempted to appease the crowd with a few AI-related announcements, such as an image analysis tool, a workout coach, a live translation feature, and more.
