The next Apple Vision Pro could have Apple Intelligence — how AI will reportedly fix the headset's flaws

By
Apple Vision Pro

Apple fans are still waiting for the release of M4 Macs later this year.

However, one Apple analyst suggests that the company is already looking ahead to the next iteration of the Apple Vision Pro, which will be reportedly powered by the next-gen M5 chipset.

According to a new report from Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is expected to start production for the new Apple Vision Pro in the second half of 2025.

The new Apple Vision Pro will also likely incorporate Apple's AI, Apple Intelligence, within the spatial computing realm, Kuo says.

The future of Apple Vision Pro

The Apple Vision Pro burst onto the market in February 2024 to much fanfare. But the conversation around the launch of Apple's brand new product quickly faded. Apple Vision Pro sales have apparently fallen well below the one million units goal that Apple had been targeting. 

Previous reports from earlier this year suggested that Apple is pausing the production of a new, full-featured Apple Vision Pro model, and instead, focusing on creating a cheaper version. The Apple Vision Pro currently retails for $3,499.

The M5 upgrade for Apple Vision Pro would see the device skip two whole generations of the Apple's silicon chipset. The Apple Vision Pro currently on the market is powered by the M2 chip. According to Kuo, it's possible that the M5 Apple Vision Pro price will be lower than the current model, but the Apple analyst adds that it "may not change much."

According to Kuo, the new Apple Vision Pro could potentially solve some of its user interface problems with the help of Apple Intelligence, or Apple's branded AI.

"Combining eye tracking, gesture control, and Apple Intelligence should provide a better user experience for spatial computing," Kuo writes in the report.

Kuo reports that the supply chain for the Apple Vision Pro will largely remain unchanged, which could contribute to cost reductions during mass production. He also expects improvements in both the device’s weight and battery life.

This latest report from the Apple analyst provides some important insight into the big picture of Apple Vision Pro's future. But any specifics read more like speculation from Kuo based on that broader knowledge.

At Mashable, at least for the near future, we're still crossing our fingers for those long-awaited M4 Mac releases before we get ahead of ourselves with any M5 possibilities.

The Nintendo Switch has been the US’s bestselling console for 23 straight months

By
Photo by James Bareham / The Verge It’s been a good two years for the Nintendo Switch. According to Nintendo, the gaming tablet has been the bestselling console in the US for 23 straight months. And according to data from the NPD Group, it just had its best October ever, moving 735,926 units of both the Switch and Switch Lite in the US. The company says that represents a 136 percent increase compared to last year. To date, the Switch has sold 22.5 million units in the US, and last week Nintendo revealed that more than 68 million units have been sold globally . “We’re excited about our momentum,” says Nick Chavez, Nintendo of America’s SVP of sales and marketing. Chavez puts the company’s big October down to two main factors. One is a better supply of stock; this year in particular, it’s often been hard to find a Switch on store shelves. This has only been exacerbated by increased demand due to a combination of the pandemic and the breakout success of Animal Crossing: New Horizons . ...

Instagram accidentally reinstated Pornhub’s banned account

By
After years of on-and-off temporary suspensions, Instagram permanently banned Pornhub’s account in September. Then, for a short period of time this weekend, the account was reinstated. By Tuesday, it was permanently banned again. “This was done in error,” an Instagram spokesperson told TechCrunch. “As we’ve said previously, we permanently disabled this Instagram account for repeatedly violating our policies.” Instagram’s content guidelines prohibit  nudity and sexual solicitation . A Pornhub spokesperson told TechCrunch, though, that they believe the adult streaming platform’s account did not violate any guidelines. Instagram has not commented on the exact reasoning for the ban, or which policies the account violated. It’s worrying from a moderation perspective if a permanently banned Instagram account can accidentally get switched back on. Pornhub told TechCrunch that its account even received a notice from Instagram, stating that its ban had been a mistake (that message itse...

MVP versus EVP: Is it time to introduce ethics into the agile startup model?

By
Anand Rao Contributor Share on Twitter Anand Rao is global head of AI at PwC . The rocket ship trajectory of a startup is well known: Get an idea, build a team and slap together a minimum viable product (MVP) that you can get in front of users. However, today’s startups need to reconsider the MVP model as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) become ubiquitous in tech products and the market grows increasingly conscious of the ethical implications of AI augmenting or replacing humans in the decision-making process. An MVP allows you to collect critical feedback from your target market that then informs the minimum development required to launch a product — creating a powerful feedback loop that drives today’s customer-led business. This lean, agile model has been extremely successful over the past two decades — launching thousands of successful startups, some of which have grown into billion-dollar companies. However, building high-performing product...
