No timeline or further details about the next-generation device have been announced.
Pubs and licensed venues in England and Wales are now permitted to accept digital ID applications as proof of age.

Top executives from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and SpaceX reached an informal agreement over the weekend to slow the pace of AI development. The group framed the move as a safety measure, endorsing proposals for third-party auditors, domestic lab regulations, and a global slowdown accord. Critics quickly questioned the motives behind the pact, arguing it was designed to suppress emerging competitors and undermine the open-source AI movement. Some detractors went further, labeling the arrangement an outright cartel intended to consolidate power among established players. The debate highlights growing tension between AI safety rhetoric and competitive self-interest in the industry.
Apple is introducing AI-powered security camera features to its Home app alongside the public release of iOS 27 and tvOS 27. The new capabilities include automated video summaries, a video search tool, and multi-camera footage stitching for HomeKit Secure Video users. Access to these features requires an iCloud Plus subscription, with plans starting at $9.99 per month for 2TB of storage and going up to $60 per month. The tiered pricing structure means the extent of AI features available depends on which iCloud plan a user subscribes to. The update marks Apple's push to bring its Apple Intelligence AI platform into home security monitoring.
