Apple Loop: iPhone 16 Design Leaks, New M4 MacBook Pro, Apple’s Open-Source AI
Apple Loop brings highlights from this week’s news on Apple, including iPhone 16 design leaks, limitations of Apple’s AI, upcoming M4 MacBook Pro release, and Apple’s open-source AI efforts.
A raft of cases for the iPhone 16 have been spotted, hinting at a new design with potentially spatial capabilities for Apple’s Vision Pro mixed reality headset. The iPhone’s AI is limited to the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models due to computational constraints. On the other hand, the M4 MacBook Pro is expected to be released before Christmas, with the M4 chipset also planned for MacBook Air, Mac Studio, and Mac Pro models in 2025. Apple has made strides with open-source AI efforts by releasing 20 new Core ML models on Hugging Face.
Despite the AI advancements, the public release of Apple Intelligence may be delayed until early 2025, with speculation that it may not be available in the EU due to regulatory uncertainties. Analysts believe that the launch of AI capabilities in iPhones could trigger a supercycle of sales. Additionally, there is an ongoing discussion about why Apple has transitioned from product names starting with “i” to “Apple.”
