Carrier-financed iPhones purchased from Apple will soon be locked to the carrier, ending a workaround customers used to purchase an unlocked iPhone on a payment plan. Until the rule change, buying an iPhone from Apple and opting for financing through Verizon or T-Mobile meant you would get an iPhone not locked to either carrier's network. That's no longer the case, and now iPhones financed through Verizon or T-Mobile will not... Read more ›

Monthly AppleCare+ subscription plans for Macs and iPads are now $0.50 more expensive in the U.S., while annual plans are $5 more. The price increases apply to new subscriptions, so customers who already have an AppleCare+ subscription for a device will keep their current prices. The AppleCare+ pricing change follows price hikes on all iPads and Macs due... Read more ›

Presented by Oracle NetSuiteEvery major technology transition produces a set of assumptions about where the market is headed. The assumptions are often directionally correct, but they tend to underestimate the degree to which organizations adapt new technologies to their own circumstances. AI is following a similar trajectory.Many current discussions about enterprise AI assume a future in which employees interact with business systems through a common interface. The details vary depending... Read more ›

Presented by SAPGenerating code with AI is fast, but getting that code to run reliably inside a large enterprise, integrated with live systems, governed for compliance, and maintainable over years requires foundational work that most organizations underestimate. While 81% of all organizations have a detailed strategy, only 12–16% reach AI‑driven execution, says SAP's Michael Ameling, CPO of SAP Business Technology Platform, and the reasons rarely come down to the quality...

A team routing queries across a coding specialist, a logic specialist, and a generalist model assumes each will cover the others' blind spots. A new study evaluating 67 frontier models from 21 providers shows that assumption is mathematically flawed — and the flaw has a name: the co-failure ceiling.The assumption works like this: as long as two models don't usually fail on the exact same prompts, combining them is supposed...

Share one API key across five AI agents, and a single compromised agent inherits the reach of all five. The attacker immediately benefits from the accumulated permissions of every workflow that the key touches. The forensic trail goes cold at the credential level because five agents on one account leave no record of which agent did what.Sixty-nine percent of enterprises run agents with credential sharing somewhere in their deployments, according...

The vast majority of business data is tabular — living in data warehouses, CRMs, and financial ledgers — yet building a reliable model from it still means training a new one from scratch for every dataset, then maintaining hyperparameter tuning loops, feature engineering, and retraining pipelines to fight data drift. Google Research is proposing a way around that: a new foundation model called TabFM that treats tabular prediction as an... Read more ›

Enterprise AI teams are giving agents more freedom at the same moment their confidence in automated testing is collapsing.Half of enterprises have deployed an AI agent or LLM feature that passed internal evaluations and yet still caused a customer-facing failure — one in four more than once — according to the June 2026 VB Pulse survey of 157 qualified enterprise respondents at companies with 100 or more employees.The sample is...

Enterprise companies are running AI agents ahead of the controls needed to manage them — and they deployed that way knowingly. That is the central finding from VentureBeat Research's June survey of 573 technical leaders at companies with 100 or more employees, fielded across five parallel surveys of the agentic stack. Enterprises are now retrofitting to catch up with their own standards, and they are budgeting for it: Roughly six... Read more ›

An enterprise AI agent answers with total confidence, but the number is wrong. Nobody catches it until someone traces it back to a stale metric definition or a document the retrieval system never pulled. The model did not fail. The context it was given did.In the past six months, 57% of enterprises traced a confident but wrong AI agent answer to missing or inconsistent business context, and 31% said it... Read more ›
