Apple’s AI exodus continues with four new deflections to Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-10-21 23:42:58

It looks like Meta’s hiring freeze definitely does not apply to Apple engineers. As reported by Bloomberg, Jian Zhang, Apple’s Lead AI Researcher for Robotics, will be joining the Meta Robotics Studio. And he’s not the only one leaving. Here are the details. Apple’s AI alternatives (and teams) keep getting slimmer Last month, following a report that said that, despite Meta’s hiring freeze, there could be exceptions, Bloomberg reported that the company had poached Frank Chu, “who has led Apple

The iPhone’s ‘boring’ era officially ends next week

Apple launches new flagship iPhones every year with a variety of upgrades.

Here’s why Apple’s cheapest iPad is actually the most practical model

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-22 07:52:00

As a techie, it’s easy to get caught up in the trap of buying the most expensive devices with the most features. And, for the most part, it’s still a problem. That said, I recently made the decision to switch to Apple’s cheapest iPad, the budget model with an A16 chip. I’m pleasantly surprised with how incredibly useful it truly is – while costing less than a third of an iPad Pro. iPadOS 26 I’ve mentioned it in passing before, but iPadOS 26 sort of ruined how I use my iPad.
