🍎All the AI Stuff Announced at Apple’s WWDC25

Apple announced tons of new AI stuff at the 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC25). It can be challenging to keep track of all of it. So, we did it for you!

Key Details:
  1. Live Translation: AI-powered live translations of text and audio for Phone, Messages, and FaceTime.

  2. Visual Intelligence: ChatGPT can now see, hear, and speak to help you learn more about what you’re looking at on your screen.

  3. Workout Buddy: Analyzes your fitness history through an Apple Watch to provide tailored pep talks during workout sessions.

  4. Intelligent Shortcuts: Enables you to create custom AI-powered shortcuts to rewrite, proofread, and summarize text, create images, or categorize notifications.

  5. Liquid Glass Layout: A new theme for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe 26, watchOS 26, and tvOS 26 that adds more transparency to text, buttons, switches, sliders, and media controls.

Why It’s Important:
  • When Apple Intelligence was first introduced at WWDC24, it showcased a new Smart Siri with “on-screen awareness” to autonomously manage emails and craft text replies. It turns out Smart Siri was nowhere near ready.

  • Apple has been hit with a federal lawsuit claiming they engaged in false advertising when promoting now-delayed Apple Intelligence features at WWDC24. So, WWDC25 is an attempt by Apple to hit the reset button.

AI RESEARCH

🎯AI Helps Autonomous Drones Stay on Target

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) recently developed “Automated Mirror Descent (AMD),” which helps autonomous drones stay on target in uncertain environments.

Key Details:
  • An autonomous drone carrying water to help extinguish a wildfire might experience strong winds, flying debris, or thick smoke, which threaten to push it off course.

  • AMD” is a type of AI-powered software that helps autonomous drones adapt to these challenges in real-time. It achieves this by using a complex mathematical technique known as Mirror Descent.

  • Imagine trying to scale down a mountain that contains steep cliffs and slippery slopes. If you go straight downhill, you might slip, fall, or get stuck. So, the best option is to carefully adjust your route as needed to avoid danger.

  • This scenario perfectly captures how Mirror Descent works. It changes how you measure distances and directions to navigate uncertain environments more accurately.

Why It’s Important:
  • With “AMD,” autonomous drones were able to reduce trajectory tracking errors by 50%. In other words, autonomous drones using “AMD” were twice as accurate at staying on their intended path.

  • This increased accuracy makes autonomous drones more reliable for disaster relief or wildfire response, where every second counts.

PROMPT ENGINEERING TIPS

⚙️Your Harshest Critic

Want to bulletproof your ideas before they go public?

We often get so excited about our ideas that we forget to identify their flaws. But identifying flaws now can save you time, money, and major headaches later.

This simple prompt helps you stress-test your ideas by turning ChatGPT into your harshest critic.

  • Idea Framing: “I’m planning to {Insert Idea}.”

  • Contrarian Check: “Why is this a bad idea?”

  • Risk Radar: “What risks am I ignoring?”

I'm planning to {Insert Idea}. If you were trying to convince me this is a terrible idea, what would be your most compelling arguments?
