New to Apple TV+? These older titles are still worth watching

When Apple TV+ launched back in 2019, one of the most common complaints was its lack of a back catalog. And to some extent, the criticism made sense, especially given that some expected Apple to (at least partially) bundle in its vast iTunes movie library.

Now, more than five years later, Apple has quietly built up a surprisingly solid library of original films and series. If you’re a relatively new subscriber, there’s a good chance you missed out on a few of these great early releases:

Many iPhones stolen in the US and Europe end up in one building in China

Microsoft Build 2025: Three highlights Apple should pay attention to

Yesterday, Microsoft kicked off its annual developers conference with, unsurprisingly, a slew of AI features, models, and capabilities it is bringing to its own systems, many of which developers will also be able to leverage.

While some are very specific to Microsoft’s ecosystem, there were quite a few that would undoubtedly be a great addition to Apple’s own native AI offerings, whenever those finally materialize.

Apple’s use of fake data to train AI is not as weird as it sounds, here’s why

Last weekend, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Drake Bennett published a comprehensive look into what went wrong with Apple Intelligence.
