Meta has announced that parents can receive alerts when their teens discuss suicide or other forms of self-harm with its AI on Instagram, Facebook, or Meta Horizons.

Five Apple Watch models are able to measure your blood pressure in order to generate alerts for possible hypertension. However, they do not provide your actual blood pressure readings.

Former Apple design chief Jony Ive always described his long-term vision for the iPhone design as “a single slab of glass.” Apple is believed to have retained that goal long after Ive left the company, with Liquid Glass representing the company’s software prep ahead of the new hardware.
