Silicon Valley CEOs are doing battle in public. AdvertisementThe Silicon Valley elite have been at each other's throats a little more than usual lately. AdvertisementThe latest example of this came this week when Mark Zuckerberg derided Apple's Vision Pro headset in an Instagram video. The Vision Pro is a direct competitor to Meta's Quest Pro but Zuckerberg does not appear concerned for now. “If you go back to the PC era, Microsoft’s open model was the winner, and in this next generation Meta is going to be the open model, and I really want to make sure that the open model wins out again.”Zuckerberg has good reason to be on the offense.

Adjectives are then added at the front to distinguish between threat actors within the same family. Besides "Crimson Sandstorm," Iran is also affiliated with "Lemon Sandstorm" and "Marigold Sandstorm." Besides monitoring and disrupting threat actors, the company said it has been working with industry partners to exchange information.

Gurman, in his review, wrote that "today's Vision Pro is more of a preview of the future than the future itself," pointing out its unwieldy weight and short battery life. "While many on the Street are dismissing Vision Pro as noise, we strongly disagree," the firm said. Business Insider's Jordan Hart also called the Vision Pro a "promising" technology, though she noted the relatively meager offerings on the device's App Store.

We’re growing some teeth as to what can be done with AI, but we also see where there’s progress, there’s attack. One of the things I like to point out with AI systems is that if your AI systems fail on people of color, you don’t have a robust system. If your AI doesn’t work on the global majority, if your AI doesn’t work for women, if your AI doesn’t work for people with disabilities, once you start expanding all of the areas we’re talking about, it comes to your AI doesn’t work for humanity. To me, that’s a proactive approach of saying, how do we build consumer AI technology in a way that’s more ethical?
