Macprime has been researching Apple’s efforts in Zurich, Switzerland for over four years, meticulously following Apple’s recruitment efforts and speaking with people involved. They’ve found that Apple is working on a wide range of projects in Zurich — machine learning, artificial intelligence, and much more — and it can be expected that there will be a lot of Switzerland in Apple’s widely expected mixed-reality headset. Stefan Rechsteiner for Macprime (German to English via machine translation): The major topic fields to which Apple is dedicated in Zurich are computer vision, machine learning (ML), robotics, and artificial intelligence (AI). The Zurich laboratory is understood in particular as an “interface between modern ML, robotics and data science” to promote artificial intelligences that will…

Macworld Each year Apple releases a major update for iOS, the operating system on your iPhone. The current version, released last year, is iOS 16, and it doesn’t take a genius to predict that 2023 will see the launch of iOS 17. This free software update will bring a raft of interface tweaks, bug fixes, and new features. It’s like getting a new iPhone without paying a penny. In this article, we discuss everything you need to know about iOS 17. We cover its release schedule and when you can expect the beta and final versions to come out; how to get it when it does; the models of iPhone that are likely to be able to run iOS; and…

Macworld Apple doesn’t often participate in big industry-wide events such as CES or E3. The most valuable company in the world holds its own events, thank you very much. Several times a year, Apple invites the press and industry professionals to Appel Park to hear all about its latest products and services. Apple calls these “events,” and streams them live online to millions of watchers. In 2022, there were three such events: A spring event on March 8, WWDC on June 6, and the iPhone 14 launch on September 7. An additional event was expected in October or November but never materialized. In 2023, we expect at least three Apple events. Read on to find out what events and new Apple product…

WWDC 2023 will start on June 5 with a special opening keynote. At the event, the company will announce the next major updates to its operating systems, which includes iOS 17, watchOS 10, and macOS 14. But in addition to new software, Apple is also rumored to announce its long-awaited mixed reality headset at the event. To back up these rumors, the company has invited several experts in virtual reality (VR) technology to the event. more… The post Apple invites VR experts to WWDC 2023 as company is expected to announce its new headset appeared first on 9to5Mac.

Macworld Of the big Apple events of the year, WWDC is the most reliable: In each of the past 16 Junes, like clockwork, Apple has held a big get-together for its developer partners and announced a raft of important software updates. The September iPhone launch and the March/April spring event (which didn’t happen in 2023) seem almost unpredictable by comparison. In this article, we list the major announcements (and some of the smaller titbits) you can expect to hear about at WWDC 2023 this June. Some of these–updates to the five big Apple operating systems, most obviously–are as predictable as the timing of the event. But we reckon Apple will spring a few surprises too. WWDC 2023 will kick off…
