  • Google embeds AI models directly into search

    Google is gearing up for the first public release of its AI Patterns search engine tool. The company announced today that a “small percentage” of users in the US will see an AI Patterns tab in Google Search in the coming weeks, which will allow users to test search-focused chatbots outside of Google’s experimental Labs environment. Unlike traditional search platforms that only provide a large number of URL results based on the query or description entered by the user, Google’s AI Patterns will answer questions with AI-generated responses based on information in Google’s search index. This is also different from the AI Overview feature already available in Google Search, which embeds a summary of AI-generated information between the search box and the web page results. AI Patterns will be located in their dedicated tabs and ranked first in the search tab bar, to the left of the “All”, “Images”, “Videos” and “Shopping” tabs. This is Google’s response to search engines based on big language models such as Perplexity and OpenAI’s ChatGPT search feature. These search-focused AI models are better at accessing web and real-time data than regular chatbots such as Gemini, which will help them provide more relevant and up-to-date responses. If you are already familiar with the chatbot’s user interface, then AI Patterns will soon get you started. Google has also removed a waitlist for Labs users in the US to test the AI mode, giving more people the option to try out the search feature pending its widespread rollout. The AI mode itself has also been updated with new features, including a new feature that saves previous searches to a new panel on the left, allowing users to quickly revisit topics or make follow-up queries without having to restart the conversation. Now visual, clickable cards for products and locations are also starting to appear in the AI mode, providing business information such as business hours, reviews and ratings, as well as pictures, inventory, shipping details and real-time prices for products. Correction, May 1: Removed a line stating that users need to subscribe to Google One AI Premium to access AI mode in Labs. This restriction has been lifted.

  • Guo Mingyun said Apple adjusted iPhone release strategy: push folding screen iPhone in the second half of next year

    IT home on May 5th news, tianfeng international securities analyst Guo Mingyu issued a document, predicting the second half of 2025 to the second half of 2027 Apple will release Phone models. Guo Mingyu said Apple adjusted iPhone release strategy: push folding screen in the second half of next year iPhone Guo Mingyu said Apple adjusted iPhone release strategy: push folding screen in the second half of next year iPhone Guo Mingyu pointed out that due to the fierce competition in China and other markets, Apple has changed its iPhone marketing strategy, releasing low-end models in the first half of the year and high-end models in the second half of the year, which will become the norm. Kuo’s forecast for Apple’s iPhone roadmap for the next two years: Second half of 2025: iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Slim and iPhone 17. First half of 2026: iPhone 17e. Second half of 2026: Folding screen iPhone, iPhone 18 Pro Max, iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Slim. First half of 2027: iPhone 18, iPhone 18e. Second half of 2027: Foldable iPhone 2 (R & D work has started), iPhone 19 Pro Max, iPhone 19 Pro and iPhone 19 Slim with a larger screen. IT House noted that earlier this year Apple launched the iPhone 16e, which is more affordable than the iPhone 16, starting at 4,499 yuan, replacing the entry-level iPhone SE series. However, previous reports said Apple will launch several iPhone models between 2025 and 2027, including the iPhone 18e in spring 2027, but the report did not mention the launch of iPhone 17e in 2026. Kuo’s roadmap shows that from 2026, Apple plans to spread the release cadence of iPhone to the first and second half of the year. The iPhone 18 Pro series and a new folding screen iPhone will be launched in the second half of 2026, while the standard version of the iPhone 18 series is scheduled to be launched in the first half of 2027. According to Kuo’s analysis, there are two main reasons for Apple’s adjustment strategy. First, Apple’s main competitors usually launch flagship phones in the first half of the year, which leads to Apple’s “marketing gap” in the first half of the year, and Apple hopes to fill this gap. Second, if Apple’s expanding product line is released at the same time, it may “dilute” marketing resources. In the Chinese market, Chinese smartphone makers including Xiaomi, Huawei, OPPO and vivo have been eating into Apple’s market share with the launch of competitive flagship devices in the first half of the year. Huawei’s recent strong comeback in the high-end smartphone market, in particular, poses a major challenge to Apple’s position. Apple’s move to a phased release roadmap will be the first time Apple has deliberately split the launch of its flagship iPhone series since the autumn release model of the iPhone 4S was established in 2011.

  • Apple Radical! Exposed 20th Anniversary iPhone First Full Screen

    Fast technology May 4 news, according to reports, 2027 is the 20th anniversary of the iPhone, iPhone will usher in a major innovation, people familiar with the matter said that Apple plans to launch at least one true full screen iPhone in 2027, its front-facing camera and Face ID system completely hidden under the screen, this breakthrough design will become an important milestone in Apple’s development history. To achieve this ultimate form, Apple will advance in stages, the iPhone 18 Pro series launched in 2026 will be the first to be equipped with under-screen Face ID technology, front-facing camera will be individually opened on the screen to form a single hole shape, and then in 2027, Apple will place the front camera under the screen, and finally create a true full screen iPhone. According to industry analysts, this full-screen technology is likely to be applied to high-end models, so the iPhone 19 Pro series released in September 2027 will be the first true full-screen iPhone in Apple’s history. It is reported that in order to place the front-facing camera and Face ID system under the screen, Apple must first solve the problem of screen light transmittance. Although infrared light can pass through the display screen, its transmittance is extremely poor. If the Face ID system is forcibly placed under the panel, the facial recognition process will be much slower, and the safety and reliability will become worse. The previously exposed Face ID patent shows that Apple removes some sub-pixels to allow infrared light to pass through the cover plate to achieve the purpose of facial recognition under the screen. If this program can be mass-produced, then the 20th Anniversary iPhone will be the most fantastic high-end flagship in Apple’s history. Apple Radical!
