Reference Image could be a new way to prove provenance in the wake of generative AI.

Starting on Friday, August 28th, Apple will begin streaming Friday Night Baseball in immersive video on Apple Vision Pro. The stream will feature commentary from various analysts and reporters, and live graphics will be anchored around the viewers space during the game. After the games conclude, replays will be made available in the Apple TV […]

AirTags end up attached to all kinds of important items, and sometimes those items get wet. Let's talk through what to expect.

There are several smart reasons most people should be hiding apps on their iPhone or iPad. Here's how to do it.

If you're considering ditching iOS for an Android device, make sure you know what you might be losing.

Last month, I published a benchmark showing a 1.125× speedup from block-residual caching on 4-bit FLUX . The main lesson was not the multiplier. It was that my original quality metrics had been measuring the wrong thing, and that acceleration claims often combine speed, trajectory preservation, and perceptual quality into one number. For the follow-up, I chose a stricter target: real-time autoregressive diffusion video on an Apple M5 Max , with the definition of "real time" frozen before results were visible. The tested configuration did not meet that target. The fastest claim-eligible result was 1.418 native generated frames per second , compared with a 16 FPS target. That is an 11.28× gap . I am publishing the result because the measured bottleneck, one systems improvement, and two rejected hypotheses are useful even without a real-time result. The evidence can be checked from a repository checkout: git clone https://github.com/kkjcodes/liveframe cd liveframe python -m pip install liveframe liveframe verify \ artifacts/liveframe-publication-claims.v1.json \ --artifacts-root . liveframe recompute \ artifacts/liveframe-publication-claims.v1.json The setup LiveFrame evaluates Wan2.1-T2V-1.3B-based causal video models across NVIDIA H100 CUDA and Apple M5 Max MLX/Metal. The experiments include: Causal Forcing++ for the clean M5 performance fixture Rolling Forcing for the CUDA-to-MLX portability study Frame-wise Causal Forcing++ for the H100 cache-reuse experiment The clean M5 fixture produces 81 pixel frames at 480×832, corresponding to 5.06 seconds at the model's native 16 FPS. Before holdout results were visible, the relevant protocols froze their prompts, seeds, content strata, horizons, thresholds, aggregation rules, and stop rules. For the cross-runtime experiment, stochastic inputs were serialized once as BF16 tensors. CUDA and MLX consumed byte-identical tensors rather than relying on nominally matching random seeds. LiveFrame separates four claim layers: Numeri

There are advantages and disadvantages to both connection types. Here's how they compare and when you might choose one over the other.

Apple has a not-so-obvious heart rate feature that's worth checking out. Here's what it does and how to use it.

For roughly an hour this week, Telegram vanished from Apple's App Store. Even during that blip, it was a stunning absence for such a major app: an avenue of communication for more than 1 billion users around the world, used widely as a secure platform for people who live in countries under censorship. Apple later […]

Best Buy kicked off a sale on Apple products with discounts on its latest smartwatches to phones. Another deal that caught our eye is on the latest AirPods Pro, Apple’s flagship wireless earbuds, which are down to $189.99 ($60 off), with retailers like Amazon and Walmart matching the price. That’s their lowest price since Prime […]

Tahoe, Sequoia and Sonoma operating systems have been patched to address a Screen Sharing vulnerability.

Apple bumped up its trade-in offers for iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and certain Android phones, with some devices now worth over $100 more, 9to5Mac reports. The Mac Studio's trade-in value increased the most, going up by $260. While some devices' offers are unchanged, most got an increase of around $5 to $20, with a […]

Newly filed court exhibits show OpenAI’s legal strategy in Apple’s trade secrets lawsuit: argue that Apple’s own security and offboarding practices — including allowing an Apple manager to access a former engineer’s iCloud account after he left the company —undermine its claims that the allegedly stolen information was properly protected.

Apple Pencils differ in terms of features, charging methods and iPad compatibility.

OpenAI has asked a federal judge to toss out Apple's landmark lawsuit accusing the ChatGPT maker of stealing trade secrets, describing the allegations as "meritless." In a motion filed yesterday to dismiss the complaint, OpenAI says that Apple is mischaracterizing both the actions of the AI startup's employees as theft, and "generic" product development information […]

Apple’s most affordable laptop, the MacBook Neo, is available once again at its pre-price hike price. All four colors are currently discounted and available refurbished through the company, with the base 256GB model listed for $599 (usually $699 new), and the upgraded version with 512GB of storage and TouchID selling for $679 (usually $799). The […]

A bug in how Apple implements its Private Relay feature, which in theory masks users’ IP addresses from the sites they visit, can reveal users’ real IP addresses.

2026 is shaping up to be an excellent year for Apple TV. Apple's streaming service has built out an impressive slate that spans returning favorites like Silo and Sugar to all-new hits including OnlyFans-inspired dramedies, terrifying comedies, and paranoid tech thrillers. But the most important release might be a feel-good sports sitcom. After what seemed […]

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov blames an extortionist for planting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in a public chat to get the app temporarily removed from Apple's App Store on Monday night. "Apple removed Telegram from the App Store before contacting us," Durov says in a post on X. "This creates a potential systemic risk for […]

Apple caps bug bounty program due to deluge of AI submissions.
