Fortune Tech: How much are people willing to pay for a smartphone?
Fortune 21
Apple cut supplier component orders for iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, with Nikkei Asia saying the October orders are at least 15% below what Apple originally requested. The iPhone 18 Pro starts at $1,199 and the iPhone 18 Pro Max at $1,299, each $100 more than the iPhone 17 Pro models they replaced. As memory-chip costs rise due to AI-driven demand, Apple shifts shipments toward premium models and delays the standard iPhone 18 to spring 2027.
Minions: A Dynamic and Distributed Virtual GPU Cloud Built on Idle Apple Silicon Devices
Apple Machine Learning Research 2 days ago 40
Minions aggregates idle Apple Silicon GPUs from macOS devices into a dynamic, distributed virtual GPU cloud for large-scale machine learning inference. The paper reports that idle macOS devices can be transformed into a practical distributed GPU inference platform when centralized GPU resources are constrained. As a result, teams can run GPU inference workloads with fault tolerance and better elasticity without buying more GPU hardware.
