| 🍎 Apple adds AI agents to App Store LINK |
- Apple is reportedly building a system to fit AI agents into the App Store, with a possible announcement at WWDC next month, though the company may not be ready to share the news yet.
- The system is being designed so agents follow Apple's privacy and security standards, addressing problems like agents spinning up smaller apps on the spot after Apple has already approved the parent app.
- Apple wants to prevent the freewheeling behavior seen in agentic systems such as OpenClaw, where agents have gone haywire and deleted all of a user's emails, while protecting App Store fees from being avoided.
| 👍 US approves 10 Chinese firms to buy Nvidia H200 chip LINK |
- The US has approved sales of Nvidia's H200 AI chips to 10 Chinese companies, though not one chip has actually shipped since President Trump first cleared the deal back in January of this year.
- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was added at the last minute to Trump's Beijing trip, which a former Taiwan legislator said shows the president wants Huang at the table to serve as a bargaining chip in talks.
- Chinese tech firms are leaning more on homegrown semiconductors, signaling to Washington that export curbs haven't slowed China's AI progress, while American voters souring on AI could make White House backing for Nvidia harder to defend.
| 📸 Instagram takes on Snapchat with disappearing photos LINK |
- Instagram is rolling out "Instants" worldwide, a new feature that lets users share disappearing photos with Close Friends or mutual followers, putting it in direct competition with Snapchat after a testing period with select users.
- Photos must be taken with Instagram's in-app camera with no edits or uploads allowed, can be viewed only once, stay available for 24 hours, and recipients can't screenshot or record them.
- Shared Instants sit in a private archive for up to one year, can be compiled into a recap for Stories, and senders can tap "undo" to unsend an Instant before friends open it.
| 📊 Anthropic overtakes OpenAI in B2B adoption LINK |
- Anthropic has pulled ahead of OpenAI in business AI spending, according to billing platform Ramp, whose AI Index shows Anthropic reaching 34.4 percent of companies while OpenAI dropped slightly to 32.3 percent.
- Anthropic quadrupled its share over the past year, but Ramp economist Ara Kharazian warns of headwinds including complaints about Claude outages and quality, plus the Opus 4.7 model tripling the cost of image processing.
- The Ramp AI Index tracks which companies pay which AI providers through corporate cards or invoices, not actual usage, and it leans heavily toward US firms, so the figures don't reflect global spending patterns.
| 💼 LinkedIn cuts 5% of its workforce LINK |
- LinkedIn is laying off 5% of its staff as the company shifts its workforce toward parts of the business that are growing, according to people who spoke with Reuters about the restructuring plans.
- The cuts will affect a sizable share of LinkedIn's more than 17,500 full-time workers globally, with the move tied to a broader push across the platform to reshape operations around AI.
- LinkedIn's announcement adds to a heavy year for tech layoffs, with Layoffs.fyi tracking over 103,000 job cuts so far in 2026, closing in on the roughly 124,000 cuts recorded throughout all of 2025.
