| The Rundown: Apple is reportedly working on bringing its new AI features from its Apple Intelligence push to the Vision Pro headsets, according to a new report from Bloomberg. | The details: | Apple Intelligence was announced for Mac, iPhone, and iPad during WWDC, but is now being adapted for the Vision Pro headset as well. Bloomberg said the capabilities are not expected on the device this year, despite the company looking for ways to boost sales for the product line. The Apple Intelligence suite will include an improved Siri, writing tools, and an OpenAI-powered chatbot, among other AI-infused features. The report also expanded on the WSJ's rumored Apple-Meta partnership, saying Apple has 'zero interest' in the deal.
| Why it matters: The futuristic capabilities of the Apple Vision Pro and the advanced workflows unlocked with AI are a match made in heaven — assuming anyone is willing to pay the high price tag. Users might need to see a significant price cut to come around to the new tech, regardless of what AI is infused into it. |

| The Rundown: Agility Robotics just signed a multi-year deal with GXO Logistics to bring the company's Digit humanoid robots to warehouses, following a successful pilot in Spanx facilities in 2023. | The details: | The agreement is being hailed as the first Robots-as-a-Service (RaaS) deal and 'formal commercial deployment' of the humanoid robots. Agility's Digit robots will be integrated into GXO's logistics operations at a Spanx facility in Connecticut, handling repetitive tasks and logistics work. The 5'9" tall Digit can lift up to 35 pounds, and integrates with a cloud-based Agility Arc platform to control full fleets and optimize facility workflows. Digit tested a proof-of-concept trial with Spanx in 2023, with Amazon also testing the robots at its own warehouses.
| Why it matters: Is RaaS the new SaaS? Soon, every company will be looking to adopt advanced robotics into their workforce — and subscription services could help lower the financial and technical barriers needed to scale without the massive upfront costs. |

| The Rundown: Google just announced its largest-ever expansion of Google Translate, adding support for 110 new languages enabled by the company's PaLM 2 LLM model. | The details: | The new languages represent over 614M speakers, covering about 8% of the global population. Google's PaLM 2 model was the driving force behind the expansion, helping unlock translations for closely related languages. The expansion also includes some languages with no current native speakers, displaying how AI models can help preserve 'lost' dialects. The additions are part of Google's '1,000 Languages Initiative,' which aims to build AI that supports all of the world's spoken languages.
| Why it matters: We've talked frequently about AI's coming power to break down language barriers with its translation capabilities — but the technology is also playing a very active role in both uncovering and preserving languages from lost and endangered cultures. |
