The latest update optimizes Arc for iPads, which, finally. Don’t expect fireworks — this is just straight-up the iPhone app on a bigger screen — but I’ll take it!

    At a post-keynote live session, Apple’s Craig Federighi just explained how the company is thinking about integrating other AI models.
