The Justice Department on Wednesday asked the judge in its antitrust case against Google to force the company to sell its Chrome browser. "Advertisers would find competitors for their business, rather than needing to pay a dominant search engine." When you open Chrome and type something into the search bar at the top, these words are automatically transformed into a Google Search. And when there's an option for users, Google pays partners billions of dollars to set its search engine as the default. For instance, if most people click on the third result, Google's Search engine will likely adjust and rank that result higher in the future.

Read previewWhen Apple's head of AI strategy and machine learning, John Giannandrea, joined the company in 2018, the company's voice assistant, Siri, was struggling to live up to its promise. Looking for a turnaround, Giannandrea says his first instruction to the Siri team was inspired by legendary NASA Chief Flight Director Gene Kranz: "Failure is not an option." Related stories"A lot of people use Siri a lot of the time," Giannandrea said in an interview with John Gruber after Apple's WWDC last week. Now 14 years after Apple launched Siri, the voice assistant's growing popularity has made it an exceptional proving ground for AI, raising the stakes still further. He has long argued that on-device AI models are critical to the technology being practical for everyday users.

A former Google Maps designer said the app's new color palette feels "colder" and "less human." 15 years ago, I helped design Google Maps. Other Google Maps users echoed Laraki's critiques around the app's new colors. — Sasha Luccioni, PhD 💻🌎🦋✨🤗 (@SashaMTL) November 23, 2023"Why has Google maps all of a sudden changed the colors?" In other words, Google Maps users may've switched to Apple Maps for a good reason.

Apple is marketing a security feature after the WSJ revealed it can be used by iPhone thieves. Thieves have reportedly taken up to $10,000 through iPhones by using the Apple ID reset feature. Earlier this week, Apple made a post on X, previously known as Twitter, that included a short video on how Apple users can change the passwords to their Apple ID accounts. "I absolutely cannot believe Apple is marketing this as a feature," Stern wrote on X. "Of course, I tried it like minute three, I tried it," Ayas told Insider in reference to the "Find my iPhone" feature.

While it received a lot of buzz, so did a surprising guitar solo from Apple exec Craig Federighi. In the pre-recorded video clip from the WWDC keynote stream, Craig Federighi, Apple's senior vice president of software engineering, is shown wearing a leather jacket and holding a triple-neck electric guitar. Gruber, who runs the Apple-focused blog DaringFireball.net, was also joined by Greg Joswiak, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing. In a video clip from the interview, Joswiak pulls out an electric blue guitar from behind two chairs — prompting laughter and cheers from the crowd. Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg, for instance, has started competing in jiu-jitsu matches, and gained a shredded physique as a result.

While it received a lot of buzz, so did a surprising guitar solo from Apple exec Craig Federighi. Federighi demonstrated his guitar skills again during an interview this week. But a guitar solo from one Apple executive during the livestream may have stolen the show.

Gruber, who runs the Apple-focused blog DaringFireball.net, was also joined by Greg Joswiak, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing.

Tesla announced pre-orders were open for a $300 wireless charging mat. In 2019, Apple canceled AirPower, its own version of a wireless charging mat. Back in 2019, Apple scrapped plans for a similar product called AirPower because Apple said it failed to meet the company's standards. Like Tesla's charging mat, AirPower was designed to charge three products at once— including wearables, which aren't usually compatible with Qi, an inductive method for wireless charging. Tesla's Wireless Charging Platform isn't compatible with the Apple Watch, for instance, the Verge reported.
