But I've got a spine-tingling tale that'll chill you, at least if you've ever had a large chunk of money at the mercy of an unfeeling and uncaring corporation.

BBC News

Much of the conversation around the new handset will likely centre around its power, with Apple electing to use the same A18 chip behind its more expensive devices. This means the 16e will be capable of playing the same games and running the same apps as other iPhones - though AI is likely at the heart of this decision. Apple boss Tim Cook said in the announcement the new model featured "the performance, intelligence and privacy" Apple fans "expect" from the firm. And he said the Apple Intelligence features on the device would "help you save time, quickly get more things done, and express yourself in new ways". The firm introduced its spin on the tech - Apple Intelligence - with this series of devices, which includes new tools for writing and incorporating OpenAI's chatbot ChatGPT into Siri.

Apple's New iPhone 11 Pro Has the First Artificially Intelligent Camera

#artificialintelligence

Apple's new high-end iPhone will make any traditional camera manufacturer tremble. The iPhone 11 Pro, unveiled at a special Apple event on Tuesday, not only has three cameras in the back--each having its own functions--but also for the first time utilizes artificial intelligence to take a photo. Yes, the next time you feel proud of snapping a perfect pic, it may have actually been the little robot living inside your phone. Here's how it works: On the iPhone 11 Pro, every time you are about to take a picture, the cameras will quickly take eight images of the object before you press the shutter. When you actually take a photo, the phone will compare your image against the eight previously taken ones and merge the best pixels of each image into one final product.
