Apple's triple threat: tariffs, AI troubles and a Fortnite fail

This week in tech: Apple struggles on multiple fronts, OpenAI grows increasingly ambitious, and Trump helps some of his fans lose money on cryptocurrency. Long dominant and unassailable, Apple is showing signs of weakness. The CEO, Tim Cook, can't tame Donald Trump's threats of tariffs that would spike the price of an iPhone; Apple's AI offerings pale against its competitors; and the company can't win a Fortnite match – or a single battle in its legal war with Epic Games – to save its life. On Friday, the president threatened to levy a 25% tariff on any iPhone not made in the US. Trump said in the post: "I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhones that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else. If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the US."
