Whistleblower claims to have nearly died because of illegal chemical exposure from Apple
Don’t speculate on what if’s and maybes, it just suggests crdibility. Better to just assume there the claims are baseless in this instance.

Apple Pay Later is getting killed in favor of third-party loan integration
One, it is probably as apple is changing its card partner from Goldman Sachs. No doubt whoever it is has a product already in place.
two, perhaps Apple wants to offer this product in other countries than the USA. The old model could not get agreement for the provincial behaving banking sector elsewhere. -
Apple Intelligence & Private Cloud Compute are Apple's answer to generative AI
I think that is a bit unfair. Apple has gone down a different path to the other server centric AI models. And, I would point out, what Apple has been calling ML for five years is a lot of what people now call AI. This is what I assume is the plan from what I can glean for the key or at technical websites (well, Ars).anantksundaram said:A rather lame, half-baked, underwhelming attempt at AI.A $3000B company with thousands and thousands of developers and a history of spectacular innovations can’t come up with its own AI?Apple Intelligence = on device ML and local LLM (smart Siri) + private, personal encrypted LLM on Apple servers ( no one else has done that bit)
ChatGPT integration = if Apple Intelligence can’t help, then go outside the privacy wall to ChatGPT (while still limiting private info) or any other LLM that sets up a future deal with Apple. And you must give permission for smart Siri to do so when it has to.All in all a deep, integrated system where on device is first priority and privacy considered at all steps. And that private LLM framework is pretty big. This is a very different path to other offerings while leveraging existing LLM frameworks. Whether it works (hi Siri!) we have yet to see.

No doubt even longer for Australian.MantlesD said:US English only. It will probably be six years until available in my native language. Still waiting for numerous other Apple features that are only available for major languages. Bummer.
