Apple is gearing up to unveil an artificial intelligence-powered coding assistant tool for developers on its Xcode platform later this year, as per a Bloomberg report. Akin to Microsoft’s Copilot, it analyzes initial code snippet inputs to suggest completion of code blocks and full programs to accelerate development.
This signifies Apple’s ambitions to harness AI for enhancing its ecosystem, encompassing areas from music curation to presentations. The Xcode coding assistant specifically aims to boost productivity among Apple’s vast developer community building apps. Its integration mirrors wider technology industry efforts to equip coders with AI aids.
Early VR Headset Sees Returns Over Health Issues
However, Apple’s debut VR headset called Vision Pro priced at $3,499 is reportedly facing buyer’s remorse with several users in its launch market of the US returning the gadget within 14 days over discomfort.
Concerns like headaches, nausea and eye strain are prompting returns, especially among people predisposed to conditions exacerbating such symptoms. Industry observers opine these mirror familiar downsides of prolonged VR usage.
But despite shortcomings, early adopters still bet on Apple’s VR potential. Its AI investment for coders equally highlights commitment to cutting-edge technology for enterprise needs.
