If youre fluent with concepts like release schedules and calendars, you may notice Apple hasnt updated its computers in a while. Its nearly a full year since the iMac and MacBook Pro got speed bumps, and just over a year for the Mac Pro and Mac Studio. Now, Apples head of marketing, Greg Joswiak, has announced an exciting week of announcements, from Monday. Its easy to assume well see those models getting pushed from variants of the M3 to the M4. Given the M4s focus on AI, expect plenty of attention on Apple Intelligence, which comes to users as part of iOS 18.1s update at the same time. That each model is likely to be announced piecemeal across the week, rather than at one glitzy event, suggests we wont see too many other big changes. The rumor suggests only the Mac Mini will get a major hardware revision, shrinking its chassis to a far smaller footprint. If Im honest, Im secretly hoping the Mac Mini doesnt become the same size as an Apple TV model, which has been hinted at. Especially if it means saddling us with a beefy power brick to clutter the floor instead. Dan Cooper Get this delivered daily direct to your inbox. Subscribe right here!

Samsung Galaxy S24 FE review: A great phone, but I wish it was cheaper Does Samsung know why it bothers making Fan Edition phones? Igor Bonifacic for Engadget After each flagship phone launch, Samsung releases a Fan Edition, offering most of the same features in a slightly cheaper package. Engadgets Igor Bonifacic put the new Galaxy S24 FE through its paces and found, like its predecessors, its a bit pointless.

President Biden sets up new AI guardrails for military, intelligence agencies Including a ban on giving AI control over nuclear weapons. The White House has issued a memorandum outlining where AI should and shouldnt be used in military and intelligence applications.
