- OpenAI is now introducing the Advanced Voice Mode for selected Plus subscribers, a month behind schedule, to rival competitors like Amazon Alexa and Apple's Siri.
- 'The advanced voice mode offers more natural, real-time conversations, allows you to interrupt at any time, and recognizes and responds to your emotions,' says OpenAI.
- After the ScarJo controversy, OpenAI postponed the launch from June to July to 'meet its standards.' This included 'enhancing the model's ability to detect and reject certain content,' as well as preparing the 'infrastructure to scale to millions while maintaining real-time responses.'
- Both Amazon and Apple have announced plans to update their voice technology to stay competitive. However, Amazon potentially introducing a subscription for an advanced version of Alexa, and Apple's Siri enhanced by Apple Intelligence is not anticipated until 2025.

- Apple has abruptly halted its 'buy now, pay later' (BNPL) service, Apple Pay Later, which transformed the company into a money lender when it launched in the US last March and gained widespread availability in October.
- It now seems that Apple has discovered an alternative route to offer short-term loans when checking out with Apple Pay. This occurred in anticipation of the company's strategy to introduce new forms of installment loans globally.
- According to an Apple spokesperson who informed 9to5Mac, the termination of Apple Pay Later preceded the company's intention to establish new types of installment loans worldwide. Existing Apple Pay Later loans and purchases remain unaffected and can still be managed through users' wallets.
- Apple unveiled its new installment loan initiative at its recent annual developer event, confirming collaborations with banks, including Citi in the US, to deliver short-term loans as a payment choice in its upcoming iOS 18 operating system.
