Apple chief executive John Ternus told Wired’s Steven Levy that the company will use artificial intelligence in upcoming devices but refuses to “ship AI for AI’s sake.” Ternus, who assumed the CEO role in September, acknowledged criticism that Apple lags behind rivals after delaying a more capable Siri, which finally arrived this summer. He emphasized that successful AI integration should be invisible to users, blending seamlessly with traditional software to deliver experiences people love. When asked whether [...]

Apple unveiled a new MacBook Pro featuring a PROLED XDR display and the company’s first touch‑screen laptop, paired with macOS 27 “Golden Gate.” The OS adds larger traffic‑light icons when tapped, expands touch targets in menus, and enables trackpad gestures—such as three‑finger swipes for Mission Control, space switching, pinch‑to‑zoom, and scrolling—directly on the screen. Spotlight can be launched from the Dynamic Island, mirroring iOS 27 behavior, and Safari gains pull‑to‑refresh. Developers gain full touch control of the iOS simulator [...]

Apple’s hardware prices have risen overall, yet Macs remain relatively affordable compared with their launch costs, according to a Mosyle‑sponsored analysis. The piece notes that while Mac mini and MacBook Air prices have not kept pace with inflation, their performance gains keep them attractive for enterprise fleets.

Over a five‑day vacation, tech reporter Alex Miller tested Apple’s $2,000 iPhone Duo alongside his iPhone 17 Pro Max, initially bringing the latter as a safety net. Early frustrations included broken apps, unfamiliar Touch ID gestures, and a cramped outer screen that forced extra scrolling. Despite these issues, the Duo proved surprisingly durable, surviving multiple drops on concrete, tile and wood without cracking, and fitting comfortably in both front and back pockets even with a case. Software hiccups were limited to the Google Search [...]

Apple Maps has begun obscuring imagery of several U.S. military and NASA facilities, removing visual detail from locations such as Wallops Flight Facility, Stennis Space Center, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Vandenberg Space Force Base, Whiteman Air Force Base and Ellsworth Air Force Base. The change appears to be a security‑driven decision, though Apple offered no public explanation and Google Maps continues to display the sites. Not all installations are affected; major Navy bases like Pearl Harbor [...]
