Apple is currently lagging behind in the AI field, but according to the Bloomberg agency, the company is preparing to fill its delay. The American technological giant would have an ambitious plan for new aircraft, including robots, a connected speaker with screen and security cameras for the home.
A ‘table robot’ that can serve as a company to the user would be the centerpiece of Apple’s strategy. This gadget would be planned for 2027. Bloomberg had previously heard of this project. But things now seem clearer, although Apple refused to comment on this subject.
Attract attention
According to Bloomberg, this table robot looks like an iPad on a mobile arm, capable of following the user everywhere in the house. The robot can also turn to a person talking and even try to attract the attention of someone who does not look at him. The device would also have a brand new version of Siri. This voice assistant should soon be able to take part in conversations between several people.
The connected speaker equipped with a screen could be launched on the market next year, initiates said to Bloomberg, who wanted to keep anonymity. Apple would also consider the domestic security market as a major growth opportunity, potentially allowing it to compete with brands like the Amazon Ring door bell and the connected brand cameras such as Nest and Hue.
Apple has been criticized by experts for its under-infvestment in AI for quite a long time, the opposite of other technological companies. The group has also experienced reverse in recent years. This is how last year, Apple decided to stop the development of its car.
