Hand-picked news:
📍 Apple brings ads to Maps ↗️LINK
Apple will introduce ads in Apple Maps search results in the U.S. and Canada later this summer, allowing businesses to promote locations with clearly labeled sponsored pins.
The ads are part of a broader push into advertising, using an auction-based system where businesses pay for engagement while Apple emphasizes privacy protections.
Alongside this, Apple is launching Apple Business, a unified platform combining tools like email, calendar, device management, and employee directories for companies worldwide.
🤖 Mark Zuckerberg builds an AI agent to run Meta ↗️LINK
Mark Zuckerberg is reportedly developing a personal AI agent to help run Meta by quickly retrieving information without relying on multiple management layers.
Employees are already using internal tools like MyClaw and Second Brain, an AI system built on Anthropic’s Claude that acts as a virtual chief of staff.
The push comes as Meta competes with leaner AI-native companies, alongside reports that the company may cut up to 20% of its workforce.
🖥️ Anthropic launches remote computer control for Claude ↗️LINK
Anthropic released a research preview that gives Claude direct control of a user’s Mac, allowing it to click, type, and navigate apps to complete tasks autonomously.
A new feature called Dispatch lets users assign tasks remotely from their phone, turning Claude into a fully remote AI agent that operates on their desktop.
Currently available for macOS on Pro and Max plans, the feature prioritizes direct integrations before screen control and follows Anthropic’s recent acquisition of startup Vercept.
🌐 US bans new foreign-made internet routers ↗️LINK
The U.S. has banned new consumer internet routers made outside the country unless they receive special approval, citing national security risks and vulnerabilities to cyberattacks.
Officials say foreign-made routers have been exploited in recent attacks on U.S. infrastructure, raising concerns about espionage, data theft, and supply chain threats.
Existing routers can still be used, but new models must meet stricter requirements, including disclosure of foreign influence and plans to shift manufacturing to the U.S.
🎮 Epic Games cuts 1,000 jobs amid Fortnite slowdown ↗️LINK
Epic Games is laying off 1,000 employees after a decline in Fortnite engagement led to the company spending significantly more than it earns.
CEO Tim Sweeney said the cuts, along with over $500 million in cost reductions, are aimed at stabilizing the company’s finances.
Epic recently raised prices for Fortnite’s in-game currency and noted rising operational costs, while emphasizing the layoffs were not directly caused by AI replacing jobs.
