As more major companies invest billions of dollars in developing and deploying artificial intelligence, Apple has largely been left out of the discourse despite several other companies making significant progress in the field. A deal with Google would propel Apple into the burgeoning AI arms race.
Apple researchers also recently announced the creation of MM1, a family of multimodal models — which refers to an AI system that can read and generate several sorts of data, such as text and images, simultaneously. According to the researchers’ findings, the new approaches have “superior abilities” and can reply to text and images using advanced reasoning and in-context learning.

Jamie Foxx has yet to publicly divulge the reason for his hospitalization last year, although he did share further facts during a videotaped encounter.

“I don’t remember anything,” he claimed in a video shot on June 29 in Phoenix.
Foxx went on to say in the video that he was told his sister and daughter took him to the doctor, who him a cortisone shot. Another doctor told him something was “going on up there,” as Foxx pointed to his head.
“I won’t say it on camera,” he remarked throughout the video.
The singer is known to be discreet about his personal life, and he disappeared from the spotlight at the time due to what his daughter Corinne Foxx described as a “medical complication” on social media.
In July 2023, the “Ray” star revealed that he chose not to reveal more information because he did not want the public “to see me like that.”
“I want you to see me laughing, having fun, partying, cracking jokes, or performing in a movie or television show. I didn’t want you to see me with tubes coming out of me and wondering if I was going to make it,” he said in a video posted on Instagram at the time, adding that he felt like he had gone “to hell and back.”
Foxx provided another health update on his verified social media accounts in August 2023.

Hunter Biden Sues Fox News Over Explicit Images Featured In A Streaming Series
NEW YORK — Hunter Biden filed a complaint accusing Fox News of illegally distributing sexual photographs of him as part of a streaming series.
The president’s son filed the complaint on Sunday in state court in Manhattan over photos from “The Trial of Hunter Biden,” which will premiere on Fox Nation in 2022. According to the lawsuit, the series included a “mock trial” of Hunter Biden on crimes he has not faced, as well as photos of Biden naked and engaging in sex acts.

Hunter Biden Sues Fox News Over Explicit Images Featured In A Streaming Series
The lawsuit argues that the distribution of intimate photographs without his consent violated New York’s so-called revenge porn legislation.
“Fox published and disseminated these Intimate Images to its vast audience of millions as part of an entertainment program in order to humiliate, harass, annoy and alarm Mr. Biden and to tarnish his reputation,” the lawsuit states.
In an emailed statement, a Fox News representative termed it an “entirely politically motivated lawsuit” that was “devoid of merit.” According to the statement, Biden’s attorneys filed a letter demanding its removal from streaming sites in April 2024.
“The program was removed within days of the letter, out of prudence, because Hunter Biden is a public figure who has been investigated several times and is now a convicted felon. According to the emailed statement, Fox News has faithfully covered Mr. Biden’s newsworthy events by the First Amendment, and we look forward to defending our rights in court.
Hunter Biden was convicted last month of three felony charges stemming from the purchase of a revolver in 2018. Prosecutors claimed the president’s son lied on a mandated gun-buy form by claiming he was not unlawfully using or addicted to narcotics.

Prosecutors intend to retry Karen Read following a mistrial declared in the murder case.
(VOR News) – Karen Read, a Massachusetts woman accused of killing her police officer lover in 2022, had her trial declared a mistrial by a judge on Monday.
The verdict was rendered on the fifth day of a nine-week trial that took place in a courtroom outside Boston. During the trial, Read’s attorneys claimed that the death of 46-year-old John O’Keefe was a police cover-up.
Prosecutors claim that on January 29, 2022, Karen Read, 44, crashed her Lexus SUV into her fiancé, leaving him for dead.
Read was accused of DUI manslaughter, second-degree murder, and escaping the scene of a tragic collision.
Six men and six women made up the jury, and on Monday afternoon the foreman wrote to Norfolk County Superior Court Judge Beverly Cannone to express that despite their best efforts, the panel remained divided. The letter stated that while some believed the prosecution’s case to be weak, others believed there was sufficient evidence to condemn Read.
The jurors were devoted to their duty, but they were also “deeply divided by fundamental differences in our opinions and state of mind,” as they wrote to Cannone.
Cannone scheduled a status hearing for later this month following the mistrial.
In addition to thanking O’Keefe’s family, the district attorney’s office declared a retrial.
Reporters were informed outside the courthouse by Karen Read lawyer,
Alan Jackson, that the prosecution had employed dishonest detectives and an improper investigation. “We will not give up on our struggle,” he declared.
That morning, O’Keefe was discovered to be unresponsive and declared deceased. The medical examiner concluded that the patient died from blunt force injuries to the brain and hypothermia.
In order to hide an attack that O’Keefe had during a party at the apartment where his body was discovered, her defense team alleged that the police conspired to frame her.
The chief investigator in the case, Massachusetts state trooper Michael Proctor, was accused by the defense of falsifying evidence, neglecting to look into O’Keefe’s death, and sending derogatory messages and epithets about Karen Read to his friends, family, and superiors.
During his last Tuesday’s closing remarks, Assistant District Attorney for Norfolk County, Adam Lally, referred to Proctor’s texts as “indefensible,” although he clarified that they had no bearing on the investigation.
Lally dismissed the defense’s cover-up claim as “rampant speculation.”
Read allegedly told first responders that Lally had struck O’Keefe more than once. According to vehicle data, on January 29, at midnight, she reversing her SUV about 62 feet at 24 mph near Brian Albert’s house.
Evidence, according to Lally, proved she hit him. Authorities discovered O’Keefe’s hair and DNA on the back of the car, along with a broken tail light.
According to Lally, nobody at the party remembered seeing O’Keefe at Albert’s house.
Karen Read dropped O’Keefe off at Albert’s house, drove home, and ran away in a panic, breaking the tail lamp, according to defense attorney Alan Jackson. Hours later, she discovered her partner was vanished.
Using surveillance footage from O’Keefe’s house, the defense presented evidence of Read reversing her SUV into her boyfriend’s vehicle on her way out to find him. O’Keefe’s iPhone, according to Jackson, recorded dozens of steps around the moment that prosecutors claim he was struck. It could have been Albert’s basement down those steps.
In contrast to the prosecution, Karen Read lawyers were able to prove O’Keefe’s death was the result of third-party wrongdoing. A BATFE agent suspected of O’Keefe’s murder exchanged passionate texts with Read.
Before the Albert’s house party, Jackson thought that Karen Read had abandoned him at a pub, which had infuriated agent Brian Higgins. Jackson thought O’Keefe may have fallen and struck his skull during a fight between Higgins and O’Keefe at Albert’s house over Read.
Higgins claimed that he had never seen O’Keefe at Albert’s house and that Karen Read lack of emotion didn’t bother him.
O’Keefe’s injuries should have been worse if he had been struck by a car traveling more than 20 mph, according to a forensic engineer who assessed law enforcement’s case management for the Department of Justice, as reported by The Associated Press.
Expert Andrew Rentschler reportedly told the Associated Press, “We do not have sufficient evidence in this case to ascertain which specific event caused the injury.”
