Apple Vision Pro will be two years old in February. For those holding out for a second-gen version, it sounds like the Apple Vision Pro 2 may have a better chip than expected.

Reported plans for Apple’s tabletop robot seem both excellent and awful

Yesterday’s Bloomberg report on Apple’s upcoming tabletop robot didn’t reveal anything new about the hardware, but plans to give it a personality could represent a huge gamble. The starting point seems both uncontroversial and a great idea – basing the UI on the friendly Finder icon that we’ve known and loved since the welcome screen of the original Macintosh back in 1984 … A Finder-based animated face While Mark Gurman said Memoji-styles alternatives are being considered, animating the Finde

Elon Musk's DOGE Was Far More of a Dismal Failure Than We Thought

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency originally promised to save the government $2 trillion in waste. That target quickly dropped to $1 trillion. Then in April, Musk started intimating that the savings would only be in the region of $150 billion, making it clear to all but his most diehard supporters that DOGE was failing on its own terms — even going by its own dubious estimates of its progress.

U.S. Allegedly Super-Charged Its Efforts to Prevent China From Getting American Chips

The Trump administration has made curbing China’s access to high-powered AI chips a high priority. According to the government, China may use the chips to build up its arsenal of military technology, and it simply can’t have that. At the same time, America’s considerable and longstanding chip export controls may also be aimed at slowing China’s own chip industry.
