Today: Apple präsentiert iPhone Duo | Das steckt hinter der KI-Doomsday-Angst

Apple's new CEO, John Ternus, unveiled the innovative foldable iPhone Duo yesterday, marking his first product presentation as the company's leader. As Tim Cook's successor, Ternus took up his position just at the beginning of the month. The event was highly instructive, revealing Ternus' plans for steering the conglomerate and explaining why Apple's first foldable iPhone was not a surprise for investors. The CEO's debut also shed light on the future of the company and the ongoing KI-Doomsday debate.

Stephan Scheuer, Co-Team Leader for Tech Topics at Handelsblatt, discussed the direction Ternus intends to take the corporation in a recent podcast episode. According to Scheuer, Apple's first foldable iPhone is not an unexpected move and reflects the company's commitment to innovation. Meanwhile, KI- researcher Jason Coxon, who previously worked for Anthropic, has expressed his discontent with the industry's lack of responsibility in developing self-improving Superintelligences, sparking the KI-Doomsday debate once again.

The debate surrounding the potential dangers of AI today focuses on the feasibility of assessing the risk posed by AI and whether companies are truly meeting their responsibilities in this regard. Handelsblatt Tech Reporter Lina Knees explored these topics in an exclusive podcast for Today's subscribers.
