While Apple works to boost Apple Intelligence, the company is reportedly teaming up with Anthropic to integrate Claude with Xcode, Apple’s integrated development environment. However, Xcode with Claude integration could just be an internal tool for Apple.

Apple’s iPhone lineup is set for major shakeups in the coming years. Starting this fall, there won’t be a clear ‘best iPhone’ like there historically has been. The Pro Max’s claim to the crown will, more than ever before, find itself hotly contested.
