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

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.

Instagram accidentally reinstated Pornhub’s banned account

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...

California Gov. Newsom vetoes bill SB 1047 that aims to prevent AI disasters

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed bill SB 1047, which aims to prevent bad actors from using AI to cause "critical harm" to humans. The California state assembly passed the legislation by a margin of 41-9 on August 28, but several organizations including the Chamber of Commerce had urged Newsom to veto the bill . In his veto message on Sept. 29, Newsom said the bill is "well-intentioned" but "does not take into account whether an Al system is deployed in high-risk environments, involves critical decision-making or the use of sensitive data. Instead, the bill applies stringent standards to even the most basic functions - so long as a large system deploys it."  SB 1047 would have made the developers of AI models liable for adopting safety protocols that would stop catastrophic uses of their technology. That includes preventive measures such as testing and outside risk assessment, as well as an "emergency stop" that would completely shut down...
