Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, in his latest report, claims that iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 will come with a dedicated “Apple Intelligence Tools” section inside the Photos editing interface. The “Apple Intelligence Tools” section will include three new AI-powered photo-editing features: Extend, Enhance, and Reframe. Before we begin with what the features actually do, all of them will run entirely on-device, and, in a typical Apple fashion, complete their edits in seconds. What will the new Apple Intelligence photo editing…

The new 12GB variant sidesteps the issue by using 24Gb G7 modules built…

The publication reports that the court-appointed administrator overseeing Nacon’s restructuring will request Spiders’ liquidation before the commercial court tomorrow, a move its sources say is a…
