At Google's 2025 announcement event, the company made several digs at apple, from "walled gardens" to the "tired" text bubble color debate.

Of course, Google’s latest Pixel lineup is far from an existential threat to Apple’s iPhone. According to research firm Canalys, Apple’s iPhone made up 49% of US smartphone shipments in Q2. Samsung accounted for 31%, while Motorola had 12%. Google devices made up just 3% of shipments.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has a juicy new report today detailing Apple’s future plans for AI and robotics, which he pitches as a “turnaround” for the company. A comeback of sorts, for a company that has badly missed the boat and disappointed fans with its AI ambitions so far.

Apple Inc. is plotting its artificial intelligence comeback with an ambitious slate of new devices, including robots, a lifelike version of Siri, a smart speaker with a display and home-security cameras.

Google on Wednesday announced its new lineup of Pixel phones and other gear at an event hosted by Jimmy Fallon.

Taiwan's Foxconn , which rose to become a global tech manufacturing juggernaut by assembling millions of iPhones, can now say its main business is no longer Apple as it takes advantage of the AI-boom to diversify its income.

The latest Apple AI rumor covers a Clippy-like AI assistant, robots, and security cameras for your smart home.

That leaves room for Web3 platforms to define a different model. Unlike traditional AI systems that remain under corporate control, decentralized AI agents are owned outright by users through private keys. They cannot be shut down, seized, or altered by a third party.

The company launched the Apple Intelligence platform last year in a bid to catch up with rivals. But the initial features haven’t been widely used, and other AI platforms remain more powerful.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is now at the heart of growth in technology, with the global AI market expected to reach around $244 billion in 2025. The biggest tech names are racing to bring smarter, more adaptive AI into every device and service on the market.
