Apple CEO John Ternus is pushing software chief Craig Federighi to speed up Siri’s roadmap and turn it into a true AI agent, possibly as early as next year, per Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

Near term, iOS 27.3 gives Siri deeper control of Apple’s apps, with third-party actions like Grubhub orders arriving in spring. Rivals like OpenAI’s Dots and Meta’s Muse already run multi-step tasks alone.

Apple shipped its rebuilt Siri only in September and already looks behind. Even Ternus admitted on last week’s earnings call that Siri remains primarily request-based today.

Nvidia’s board launched an independent investigation on Sunday after CEO Jensen Huang admitted to an affair with Alice Huang (no relation), a former Megaspeed executive US intelligence officials reportedly suspect of spying for China.

Independent directors and outside lawyers will run the review, while three House GOP chairs want Huang to confirm a closed-door briefing by November 11. China denies the spying allegations.

The board says it sees no sign that secrets leaked, and Huang stays CEO. Investors seem less sure: Nvidia shares slid as much as 8.8% Monday, briefly erasing nearly $400 billion.

Meta is expanding its AI age-estimation tech to Instagram users worldwide, aiming to spot teens who use an adult birthday and move them into stricter Teen Account protections, like private-by-default profiles.

The move follows Meta’s August settlement with a bipartisan coalition of state attorneys general, where it agreed to better identify teens and kids under 13. The AI scans posts, bios, and photos for age clues.

Meta also wants TikTok and YouTube to copy its playbook. Its settlement already plans for that: about $5.3 billion in payments only comes due if rivals adopt similar teen rules.

Anthropic published an engineering post detailing “dreaming,” where Claude agents use idle time to reread logs of past sessions, fix wrong memory notes, and reorganize what they know for future work.

Anthropic says strong models now judge what’s worth saving better than human-written rules do. In its own tests, dreaming helped agents build wikis that lifted document Q&A scores from 13% to 48%.

Anthropic’s Pokémon test makes the point: Claude Fable 5 earned four badges with just 10 memory files, while Sonnet 3.7 hoarded 413 files and earned one. Less, apparently, is more.

Musk says Tesla will refund deposits to “a lot of people” because Cybertruck orders now outpace production, with the line shutting down in about eight months to free up space for Cybercab robotaxis.

Musk denies the truck lost money, arguing Cybercab production simply offers more value. Sales data shows weaker demand: US Cybertruck sales fell 48% to 20,237 last year, far below his 250,000 annual projection.

Some of that demand came from home. SpaceX bought $131 million of Cybertrucks at full sticker price in 2025, including more than 18% of fourth-quarter Cybertruck registrations.
