Apple keeps buying small tech companies to make its smart glasses and artificial brain features better. The tech giant just grabbed two more startups to add fresh talent and new tools to its team. These deals help Apple catch up with rivals who already have advanced computer smarts. The company wants to build the best virtual reality headset and smart assistant around. Each purchase brings Apple closer to its goal of ruling the future tech world.
TrueMeeting was the first company Apple snatched up for its special face-copying technology. This startup could turn anyone into a digital twin just using an iPhone camera. The realistic avatars looked just like real people and moved naturally during video calls. Apple plans to use this technology to improve the fake people inside its Vision Pro headset. The startup's website disappeared after Apple bought the company.
WhyLabs became Apple's second new purchase because it fixes problems with smart computer programs. This company stops AI systems from making mistakes or saying dangerous things to users. Apple needs this technology to keep its smart features safe and working properly across all devices. The purchase helps Apple build trust with customers who worry about AI safety. WhyLabs experts know how to block harmful content before it reaches people.
Both companies fit perfectly with Apple's vision for safe and amazing technology experiences. The purchases show Apple takes AI safety seriously and wants to create the most realistic virtual worlds possible.
