Apple cares about privacy. That is why the AI features will run either on-device or using Apple's Private Cloud Compute, not on Google's servers. It will be possible to use third-party cloud services for complex problems, if required. But the use of Apple's own servers means Google won't have direct access to user data.

Get a look at the real-time translation the new AirPods Pro 3 bring to your ears, which you can prompt through a gesture. Powered by Apple Intelligence, it uses noise cancellation to reduce the volume of the speaker to elevate the provided translation to the user. It came as one of several updates to the newly revealed AirPods Pro 3, which made their debut at Apple's iPhone 17 launch event.

Bloomberg tells us that the foldable iPhone (V68, apparently) will be similar in look to Samsung's Z-Fold smartphones, opening out into a small tablet. The latest report claims it will have four cameras (so you can FaceTime in any configuration), will use an eSIM for network connectivity, and might use Touch ID rather than Face ID.
