Italian antitrust authority launches investigation into Apple over fair access to third-party cloud services
Italy's competition authority has launched an investigation into Apple Inc. to determine its compliance with the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA). The investigation focuses on whether Apple is providing third-party cloud service providers with equitable access to its iOS and iPadOS systems, comparable to its own iCloud service. Separately, Bosch has secured a contract for its next-generation AI cockpit system, which will be based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8397 platform and is slated for production in Q3 2027. The report also briefly mentions a stock surge for Zhipu AI and an issue with Anthropic's Fable 5 model. AI
