Apple’s latest AirTag feature now supported by the busiest U.S. airline

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-06-01 22:01:38

Starting with iOS 18.2, Apple has enhanced its AirTag item trackers with a special feature that makes locating lost luggage easier than ever. The “Share Item Location” capability requires adoption by airlines to work, and this week the busiest airline in America has announced its support. American Airlines ranks third in terms of fleet size and revenue, but the company flies more passengers per day than any other U.S. airline.

ZDNET Generative AI (Gen AI) has eliminated much of the grunt work of building applications for professional software developers. Now, the question is: can citizen developers also benefit from this new paradigm in code creation? Some experts certainly think so. Over the coming year, citizen developers will deliver 30% of Gen AI-infused automation apps, predicted Craig Le Clair, principal analyst with Forrester.

AI killed the tech interview. Now what?

How can we do better interviews in the age of AI Absolutely nobody likes the hiring process. Not the managers hiring, not the recruitment people, and certainly not the candidates. Tech interviews are one of the worst parts of the process and are pretty much universally hated by the people taking them.

Are there generative AI tools I can use that are perhaps slightly more ethical than others? —Better Choices No, I don't think any one generative AI tool from the major players is more ethical than any other. Here’s why.
