Developer beta covers iOS 27.3, iPadOS 27.3, macOS 27.3, and visionOS 27.3, so you can test Siri AI integrations on all four platforms right now.

App Store submissions using the new Siri AI capabilities are scheduled for spring, giving you a window to finish testing before review opens.

Siri AI is unavailable on iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS in the EU, and Apple has not set a date for EU availability.

Traditional Chinese support is expected by the end of 2026, meaning Chinese-language users wait well over a year for the feature.

Apple published 2026 benchmark results comparing its third-generation Foundation Models to 2025 predecessors, though open-weight comparisons remain unpublished.

Of 44 measures across 10 states seeking to restrict data centers, 38 passed, including dozens of moratoriums and bans, according to the election results.

The restrictions don't apply to data centers already under construction or approved through 2027, so existing pipelines largely keep moving on schedule.

Texas was expected to account for more than 41 percent of added US data center capacity in 2028, and it now has roughly 13 gigawatts exposed.

Some projects requiring 12 to 18 months to secure state environmental permits could push delays, and some developers may relocate to Louisiana or Georgia.

Voters trust Democrats over Republicans to hold AI executives accountable by a margin of 7 to 10 points, and 3 out of 4 voters opposed data centers.

An IT administrator asked Google's support forums for a way to block AI Overviews. Google never replied, and three districts reported similar frustration and workarounds they were already trying.

A recent study found only about 42 percent of AI Overviews could be fully verified using the citations they contained, which is a serious accuracy problem for classroom research.

Google will not offer schools an opt-out, leaving full search blocking as the only route, a move educators and researchers across the US have called stunning.

Following a 2024 federal ruling, Google must share certain search data and services with rivals and loosen restrictions on how its products are distributed to competitors.

Alphabet suffered its worst single-day selloff last week, erasing half a trillion dollars in market value, as the push to make AI Overviews prominent came at a visible cost.

The Stargate Frontier data center in Shackelford County is projected to serve 1,820 megawatts once it's fully built out and running at planned capacity.

Nexus Hubbard, also under construction, has a planned size of 6,400 megawatts, making it one of the largest single data center projects currently underway in the state.

On September 21, the governor directed a key state regulator to halt data center permits, and the governor's office stopped responding to developer emails entirely.

Democrats will take control of the Texas House for the first time in 24 years, giving them a path to order project delays or new moratoriums next session.

Voters backed protecting ratepayers from data-center-driven electricity bill increases and favored some broader bans on new data centers, with Dallas-area counties leaning blue.

Meta's settlement with 51 US states and territories runs up to $16.7 billion, one of the largest child-safety payouts a tech company has agreed to pay.

The default two-hour daily time limit applies to teen users on Instagram and Facebook, and it is a default, meaning teens or parents may be able to adjust it.

TikTok agreed to comparable time limits in a September settlement in Alabama, which suggests regulators are converging on a shared set of teen usage requirements.

In the first social media addiction case to reach trial, a jury returned a verdict against Meta and Google, awarding the plaintiff $6 million in damages.

The Meta case went to trial in August, accusing the company of failing to protect young social media users, and it ended in the settlement that followed.

Nearly 2,500 people in 35 states with Senate races were asked to query ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or Gemini about the election during the study.

36% of election-using participants asked a chatbot to help them pick a candidate, often by describing their priorities and asking for alignment.

Only 8% of US adults reported using chatbots for election information this year, while 42% use them to search for information generally.

76% of election queries were fact-checking claims voters had heard, and 71% asked where candidates stand on specific issues.

Anthropic analyzed 250,000 Claude conversations in October and found requests violating election integrity policies appeared in only about 0.002% of them.
