Apple presenta lámpara robot expresiva con Siri y sólido enfoque hogareño, según Apple Machine Learning Research Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo ¿Podemos imaginar un futuro donde un robot nos acompañe en el escritorio y baile con nosotros al ritmo de la música? Apple trabaja en un prototipo fascinante: una lámpara robot con movimientos expresivos y capacidad para responder gestos y comandos de voz. Este dispositivo, presentado en su investigación ELEGNT, comparte rasgos muy humanos como la curiosidad y la empatía, demostrando su potencial para iluminar proyectos, proyectar videos y hasta invitarnos a beber agua. Es una propuesta llamativa que sugiere un acercamiento más cercano entre la tecnología y nuestro entorno cotidiano. ¿Será este el nuevo paso en la robótica hogareña que todos estamos esperando? Hay un video que prueba su carisma. Algunos dudan si Apple planea lanzar esta lámpara robot pronto El prototipo de Apple es una lámpara con un brazo articulado, cámara, luz LED y proyector. Viene con un asistente de voz similar a Siri. Los investigadores de Apple Machine Learning Research lo llaman ELEGNT. Ellos exploran cómo dotar al robot de movimientos expresivos que lo hagan atractivo. El video muestra dos versiones: una “Funcional” y otra “Expresiva”. La segunda baila, inclina la cabeza con tristeza y empuja un vaso para invitar a beber agua. Los autores del proyecto, liderados por Yuhan Hu y su equipo, quieren demostrar que el carisma aumenta la interacción. El proyecto confirma esa ventaja inicial. Algunas personas se preguntan si este prototipo va a llegar pronto al mercado. Bloomberg señala que Apple podría presentar un robot similar en 2026 o 2027, con un costo cercano a 1.000 dólares. Hay incertidumbre porque un dispositivo sin pantalla grande parece insuficiente para videollamadas o navegación web. Otros temen que sea un lujo y no un producto de consumo masivo. También surge la interrogante sobre la privacidad: un robot con cámara y micrófono integrados genera dudas. La integración de Siri y proyectores podría elevar el precio, alejándolo de muchos usuarios. Apple no confirma planes oficiales, lo que aumenta las preguntas sobre su lanzamiento definitivo. ¿Realmente van a apostar por un gadget tan novedoso y costoso para todos en casa? Mientras la comunidad debate la utilidad real de un robot-lámpara, Apple parece preparar el terreno con investigaciones orientadas a la interacción emocional. ELEGNT ejemplifica cómo un movimiento expresivo invita al usuario a entablar una relación más cercana con el dispositivo. En otras marcas, como Amazon con su robot Astro, ya existe un enfoque hacia robots para el hogar, aunque su disponibilidad es limitada. El caso de Apple podría marcar una diferencia al integrar todo en un ecosistema con Siri y servicios conocidos. A mediano plazo, estos proyectos van a evolucionar hacia experiencias más fluidas. Si la empresa confirma su lanzamiento, tal vez veamos una nueva categoría de productos, parecida a los altavoces inteligentes con pantallas. Los primeros ensayos indican que la robótica expresiva despierta curiosidad y apego. Este fenómeno va a abrir posibilidades en enseñanza, teleasistencia y entretenimiento, siempre que se gestione bien la privacidad y seguridad de los datos. Este proyecto de Apple Machine Learning Research recuerda la estética de la lámpara Luxo Jr. de Pixar, según TechRadar. La propuesta combina un foco LED con cámara, micrófono y proyector, buscando reproducir rasgos de gesticulación humana. El video oficial dura 4,76 minutos y muestra distintas rutinas: bailar, mirar por la ventana y proyectar tutoriales. Muchos sitios especializados, como 9to5Mac y The Verge, destacan el parecido con asistentes robóticos de otras marcas. Cada movimiento está diseñado para transmitir emociones, incluso al empujar un vaso de agua como recordatorio de hidratación. Se cree que Apple va a fusionar inteligencia de voz con sensores avanzados, creando interacciones más cálidas. MacRumors menciona que el prototipo examina cómo generar empatía tecnológica. La idea base surge de la necesidad de robots amigables, capaces de animar espacios domésticos. Esta investigación insinúa un futuro donde la robótica hogareña sea más natural y divertida. Especialistas lo comparan con Pixar. Apple avanza en robótica hogareña con su lámpara inteligente y expresiva. La integración de Siri y movimientos carismáticos podría abrir nuevas puertas en el hogar. ¿Te gustaría ver uno de estos robots en tu escritorio?

Apple, souvent critiquée pour les prix élevés de ses produits et réparations, semble vouloir apaiser les esprits. Une récente note interne, révélée par *MacRumors*, annonce une bonne nouvelle pour les propriétaires de MacBook Pro : les réparations des haut-parleurs seront désormais plus abordables. Jusqu'à présent, lorsqu'un haut-parleur de MacBook Pro rencontrait un problème, le remplacement impliquait de changer tout le châssis supérieur, une opération coûteuse. Ce châssis comprend plusieurs composants, notamment la batterie, ce qui alourdissait considérablement la facture. Désormais, Apple autorise ses magasins et réparateurs agréés à remplacer les haut-parleurs individuellement, une mesure bien plus économique. Ce changement concerne principalement les modèles les plus récents : les MacBook Pro 14 pouces et 16 pouces équipés de la puce M4. Cependant, selon une source citée par *MacRumors*, cette possibilité s'étendra également aux MacBook Pro dotés d'un processeur Apple Silicon, produits depuis 2020. Si le coût exact de cette réparation individuelle n'a pas encore été dévoilé par Apple, une baisse significative des frais est attendue. Cela pourrait éviter à de nombreux clients de devoir payer pour des réparations dépassant parfois plusieurs centaines d'euros. Ce geste s'inscrit dans une tendance plus large chez Apple, qui cherche à améliorer la durabilité et la réparabilité de ses produits, en réponse aux critiques des consommateurs et à la pression réglementaire. Une initiative qui pourrait séduire une clientèle soucieuse de maîtriser ses dépenses tout en continuant à profiter de l'écosystème Apple. Hébergé par Acast.

With so many users eager to explore these new capabilities, Marty sheds light on some of the hurdles he has faced while waiting for access, igniting a candid dialogue about user experience and beta testing frustrations. The excitement continues with discussions about the newly announced Macs. The introduction of the latest iMac and Mac Mini—equipped with the M4 chip—sparks a passionate exchange about their specifications and value as entry-level computers. Chuck expresses his enthusiasm for the Mac Mini's portable design, while Marty shares plans to acquire one for himself. As we reflect on Apple's approach to product announcements, we also touch on how this segmented rollout provides focused attention on individual devices. Additionally, the new MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips are unveiled, leading to reflections on their enhanced performance metrics and prolonged battery life. The emphasis shifts to the versatility for both professional and casual users, generating a lively debate about current needs versus future-proofing investments.Lastly, we explore the realm of iOS with the rollout of iOS 18.1, discussing Apple Intelligence enhancements, user interface changes, and how they aim to improve user experience significantly. Jeff and Marty share personal anecdotes about their interactions with the enhancements, including improved Siri capabilities and photo functionalities.

In this week's episode of Chit Chat Across the Pond, Adam Engst of TidBITS joins us to join in the fun conversation about limiting your iPhone's charging to 80%. He wrote up an article entitled Does Limiting an iPhone's Battery Charging to 80% Increase Lifespan? in which he references an article by Juli Clover of MacRumors. Juli used her iPhone 15 Pro Max for a solid year with charging set to a max of 80%. Juli freely admits this was not a terribly scientific effort to determine whether it helps because there are far too many variables at play and not enough data points to form any conclusions. That doesn't stop me and Adam from pretending to do science with her results, Adam and my results charging normally, and even more anecdotal data collected by Nick Heer on Pixel Envy. I even threw around a pivot table I made with this "data" which is well known to turn anecdotes into scientifically derived proof. On top of that, I nerdily referenced Battery University that sheds a wee bit of light on the subject. Before we kicked into that topic, we spent a few minutes revisiting our topic from last time, the annoying monthly popups to allow recording of your screen and microphone. Since we last talked, people have hacked the plist that contains the timing of the nagging, and Jordi Bruin has even written an app called Amnesia to help you hack it. I suggest this proves it's security theater if you can bypass it.

Normally people love reaching a milestone – but Berkshire Hathaway hitting $1T might've triggered a different kind of thinking for Warren Buffett and his lieutenants. (00:21) Jason Moser and Matt Argersinger discuss: - The signs execs at Berkshire Hathaway believe the market is rich – Ajit Jain reducing his Berkshire stake, and the company winding down its buyback activity. - Brian Niccol's vision for returning to Starbucks' roots as a third place. - Why the market was up on RH's results, down on Adobe's outlook, and still hoping a Kroger/Albertson's deal will go through. (19:11) This week was Apple's annual product event. Dan Barbera from MacRumors gives the scoop on the latest releases, one way the latest iPhones could fuel Vision Pro adoption, and what to expect from Apple in 2025.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Apple's recently announced "It's Glowtime" event for September 9 and what we're expecting from this year's M4 Mac models. Apple this week sent out invitations for the "It's Glowtime" event that it is set to host on Monday, September 9. It is highly likely to unveil the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro, Apple Watch Series 10, Apple Watch Ultra 3, Apple Watch SE 3, and AirPods 4. We take a look at the event invite that clearly hints at Apple Intelligence's prominent presence at the event and weigh up what sort of role it could play in each of the devices that are set to be revealed. We also look at the upcoming M4 Mac models expected to launch this year: an entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M4 chip, new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with the M4 Pro and M4 Max chips, a new iMac with the M4 chip, and a completely redesigned Mac mini with the M4 and M4 Pro chips. With the exception of the new Mac mini, these devices are expected to be minor refreshes that focus on chip upgrades, but they could come with 16GB of memory as standard across the board for the first time. Some of these machines are now believed to be in mass production, so while they probably won't be announced at Apple's "Glowtime" event, launch is likely to take place soon.
In the legal landscape, the adoption of new technologies offers remarkable benefits. Tools like AI-driven document drafting systems empower attorneys to efficiently create complex legal documents without needing advanced technical skills. Embracing these kinds of technologies will save time and allow legal professionals to focus on higher-value tasks. Troy Doucet is a top-rated litigation attorney, legal tech innovator, and the founder of AI.Law, a legal document drafting system. Having studied economics in college and built a prestigious practice as a litigation lawyer, he has a unique viewpoint on the revolutionary possibilities of artificial intelligence. His knowledge of the litigation process is currently being directed toward creating artificial intelligence to increase accessibility to the legal system. Troy frequently lectures about the impact of artificial intelligence on the legal sector and how it will fundamentally change the way lawyers provide services. Troy has taught multiple programs on consumer law, real estate law, and AI. Troy and I discuss the following three questions and more!

Ahead of Apple's iPhone 15 "Wonderlust" event, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman joins us to talk through everything to expect on this week's episode of The MacRumors Show. Mark is known for his accurate insider knowledge about Apple's plans and he is behind many of the major reports covered here on MacRumors. Earlier today, he published a detailed reportoutlining his expectations for Apple's "Wonderlust" event, revealing a range of new details about the devices Apple is expected to unveil. For example, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will apparently feature battery life improvements, increased megapixels for their telephoto and ultra wide cameras, and an all-new U2 chip.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman joins us on this week's episode of The MacRumors Show to talk through all of the latest rumors about the software updates and new hardware expected to be previewed at this year's WWDC, which starts on June 5.

He expects watchOS 10 to be the most significant update to the operating system since its debut, so he tells us more about what to expect and Apple's tradition of offering major hardware and software updates in tandem. He also gives us a clearer picture of what to expect from iOS 17 and macOS 14. We dissect of the major questions surrounding the two major hardware announcements anticipated for WWDC this year: the 15-inch MacBook Air and the "Reality Pro" mixed-reality headset.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss the design of Apple's upcoming mixed-reality headset with professional product designer Marcus Kane. Marcus is an industrial designer and UX consultant who uses virtual and augmented reality headsets on a daily basis to support his workflow. He recently created detailed concept renders of what he expects Apple's mixed-reality headset will look like with YouTuber David Lewis based on rumors, Apple patent filings, and his own expertise. We talk through Marcus's approach to the design and what existing Apple products inspired him, looking at some of the key aspects that Apple will have had to consider with the device. We also discuss the broader user experience with the headset, including its rumored waist-mounted battery pack – which Marcus has envisioned as enclosed in a pouch on a shoulder-strap that also contains a cable to power the device, potential restriction to indoors use only, and real-world passthrough with a "reality dial." Since Marcus uses existing headset products to support his design work, we learn about some of practical use-cases for this category of device, where Apple could compete, and what key software features the company could deliver. See more of Marcus's work over in David Lewis's latest video, and follow him on Instagram and Twitter. We also discuss some of this week's latest Apple news, including the rumor that watchOS 10 will include significant UI changes, iOS 17's purported Control Center redesign, display changes for 2025's iPhone lineup, and more.

Apple ha tenido unos meses difíciles debido a las políticas chinas para combatir el COVID. El último trimestre de 2022 es el más fuerte para Apple debido a los lanzamientos de nuevos productos como el iPhone, el Apple Watch, el iPad y los AirPods. Sin embargo, la demanda de iPhone no pudo satisfacer la oferta. Según un reporte publicado en MacRumors, Apple está preocupada con las ventas de iPhone 14 Plus y está considerando aumentar la diferencia entre los iPhone Pro y los no Pro para el próximo año. Esto implicaría que para obtener el mejor teléfono, los usuarios tendrían que optar por el iPhone Pro Max, el más caro. Loop Infinito es un podcast de Applesfera, presentado por Javier Lacort y editado por Santi Araújo. Contacta con el autor en Twitter (@jlacort) o por correo (lacort@xataka.com).
