"The AirPods and pendant are envisioned as simpler offerings, equipped with lower-resolution cameras designed to help the AI work rather than for taking photos or videos. The glasses, meanwhile, will be more upscale and feature-rich. In an all-hands meeting with employees earlier this month, Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook hinted that the company would be pushing hard into AI, saying Apple is working on new categories of products that are enabled by artificial intelligence. We're extremely excited about that."
Apple is accelerating development of three wearable devices: smart glasses, a pendant that can be pinned to clothing or worn as a necklace, and AirPods with expanded AI capabilities. All devices will be linked to the iPhone and built around Siri, using camera systems to provide visual context for actions. The AirPods and pendant will use lower-resolution cameras to support AI features rather than photography, while the glasses will be more upscale and feature-rich. Tim Cook signaled a strong push into AI and investment in new technology. Apple faces challenges revamping Siri after development delays, and market reactions included a brief rise in Apple shares and declines for some competitors and partners.
