Hands-On With the New Apple TV 4K and Siri AI
The 4th-generation Apple TV 4K with an A19 chip and Siri AI support is available starting on November 13, and we were able to spend some time with it ahead of launch. Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos. Siri AI is the headline feature, and while it's not perfect, it works better than the prior version of Siri. Siri was able to pull up multiple movie and TV show recommendations and answer questions about content. Apple says Siri AI is in beta, and there's more work to be done. Siri AI wasn't great at answering follow-up questions, and only did so part of the time. There are far-field microphones in the set-top box, so you can just say Hey Siri to activate Siri without having to use the remote. The Apple TV can recognize up to six people, so you can get personalized recommendations and context when talking to Siri. The person who sets up the Apple TV needs to have an iPhone or iPad that supports Siri AI for Siri AI to work on the Apple TV, and personal context also requires each user to have their own Siri AI-compatible device. The 2nd- and 3rd-generation Apple TV 4K models will get Siri AI with the upcoming tvOS 27.2.1 update . Apple didn't change the design of the Apple TV 4K or update the look of the Siri Remote, but the remote does have new capabilities. It has a speaker built in so you can have it play a sound when it's lost, and Precision Finding is available if you have an iPhone Air , iPhone Duo , or iPhone 17 and later (excluding iPhone 17e ). The tvOS interface feels faster with the A19 chip, and it should be better for games if you play Apple Arcade titles on your TV. You can also pair four HomePod speakers to the Apple TV for surround sound, a feature that's unique to the latest model. Unfortunately, Apple is charging $299 for the 4th-generation Apple TV 4K. It's twice as expensive as the prior-generation version was at this same time last year, and that's a wild increase. It's probably not worth upgrading if you already have a 2nd- or 3rd-generation Apple TV 4K, but if you have something older, it might be worth paying the money to get the new features.

Siri AI Coming to Older Apple TV 4K Models in tvOS 27.2.1
An upcoming tvOS 27.2.1 update will bring Siri AI to the 2nd- and 3rd-generation Apple TV 4K models, according to Apple. A support document outlining Siri AI requirements across Apple products says tvOS 27.2.1 supports Siri AI on the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation and later), but the software hasn't yet been released. While older Apple TV models will need tvOS 27.2.1 for Siri AI, Apple appears to have a special Siri AI build of tvOS 27.2 for the 4th-generation Apple TV 4K. Reviewers were able to test Siri AI on review units, and we can confirm it's working on our own review unit running tvOS 27.2. The 4th-generation Apple TV 4K ships with tvOS 27.0, and users are prompted to update it to tvOS 27.2 during the setup process. Apple hasn't said when tvOS 27.2.1 will be released with Siri AI for older Apple TV 4K models, but it could come as soon as Friday. The latest Apple TV is priced at $299, and it features an A19 chip and an updated Siri Remote that has a Find My speaker and Precision Finding support. Siri AI on the Apple TV requires a nearby paired Siri AI-enabled device like an iPhone 15 Pro or later.

HomeView Launch Kicks Off as First Orders Reach Customers
Apple announced an all-new home product a month ago, and it's now starting to arrive to customers. It's Friday, November 13, in Australia and New Zealand, which means it's the HomeView launch day. Customers who pre-ordered Apple's new home hub will soon be sharing pictures and first impressions on the MacRumors forums, Reddit, Instagram, and other social media networks. If you got a HomeView, let us know what you think in the comments below. Apple sees HomeView as the center of the home, and functionally, it's a cross between a small iPad and a HomePod . It has a 7-inch square display and the tabletop model has a speaker base, though there's also a wall-mount version. With a camera and voice recognition, it can identify up to six people in a home, showing personal information customized to each user. There is no HomeView App Store , but it has pre-installed Apple apps and can show widgets from your iPhone. It can be used for making video calls, watching videos, viewing calendar events, getting the weather, listening to music, and controlling smart home devices. It is built around Siri AI, Apple's smarter voice assistant that debuted in iOS 27 . The HomeView is priced at $299, but if you want the wall-mounted version, you need to buy extra mounting hardware. There are no Apple Stores in New Zealand, so customers in Australia will be the first to walk into an Apple Store to purchase the new device. We are not expecting shortages. The new Apple TV 4K is also launching on November 13, and it can be purchased for $299. The latest Apple TV has an A19 chip, 128GB of storage, Wi-Fi 7 support, and the option to connect four HomePods for surround sound. It also supports Siri AI. HomeView is launching in Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, the UK, and the United States. It is not available in the European Union because Siri AI is unavailable. Apple TV 4K is launching in the U.S. and 29 other countries and regions.

Apple Explains How HomeView Keeps Camera Data Private
Apple today shared an in-depth look at how it's using Secure Exclaves to protect camera and microphone data on the HomeView, iPhone 18 Pro , and other products. Apple describes Secure Exclaves as compartmentalized runtimes that process camera and microphone data while isolated from the rest of the operating system. Data processed in Secure Exclaves is not available to the rest of the OS, apps, or Apple, but processing can take advantage of the full application processor. Secure Exclaves power sensitive features involving video and audio feeds: HomeView - The HomeView uses facial and voice recognition to identify up to six people in a home. The exclave also protects the LED camera indicator on the device. Siri Recap and Live Rewind - Record ambient sound for conversation recaps or to caption the last 15 seconds of someone speaking. iPhone 18 Pro/iPhone Duo - Protects the iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max, and Duo on-screen camera and microphone indicators. Also works with Hey Siri to protect voice data. MacBook Neo - Protects the MacBook Neo camera indicator. Apple uses the HomeView as an example of how Secure Exclaves work. The device performs passive minimal visual processing continually to detect whether a person is in its field of view. The HomeView sends a continuous stream of camera frames to a camera exclave, which works alongside a person recognition exclave with face and voice recognition models and an identity database. When a person comes into view, the camera exclave detects the person and lets the main OS know that a person may be present, but no image data leaves the Secure Exclave. An audio exclave does the same thing with audio. The person recognition exclave matches face and voice prints against the identity database of enrolled users, giving a confidence score. The OS gets the person identifier, position, and confidence level, but not any of the actual audio or video. These simple signals are used to activate personal features like Calendar and Messages that depend on identity, with raw sensor data discarded. Secure Exclaves came about because Apple needed a secure option for ambient video and microphone monitoring, with the groundwork laid starting in iOS 18. Apple devices use indicators for situations where the camera and microphone are actively engaged, but Apple says they weren't ideal for ambient sensing because they would be on all the time. Always-on lights wouldn't give users a way to distinguish between background sensing and active audio and video recording. There are two modes for a Secure Exclave: ambient mode and active mode. In ambient mode with no indicator, a sensor can respond to triggers, but it only shares small amounts of metadata with the rest of the system. In active mode, full sensor data is given to the operating system, and an indicator informs the user that the system has audio and video access. Apple has long used indicators, but they are now backed by Secure Exclaves. Secure Exclaves make sure an indicator is active before data is allowed to be transferred from the exclave to the rest of the OS. Apple built an isolated computing environment that could handle ambient sensing, and the company says isolating memory for Secure Exclaves was a serious engineering challenge. Full technical details on the process can be found on Apple's security website .

Apple Releases Updated HomeView Software 27.2 Before Launch
With the HomeView set to start arriving to some users in just a matter of hours, Apple has released a new HomeView Software 27.2 update. The software has a build number of 24V526, and it is the second 27.2 update Apple has released for the device. Customers receiving the HomeView this week will need to install a software update during the setup process. The HomeView ships with HomeView Software 26.5 , which is approximately six months old. Apple planned to release the HomeView earlier than November 2026 but held back because it wanted to debut Siri AI in iOS 27 first. Apple today said it plans to release a HomeView software update to fix a Siri AI issue that prevents Siri from controlling smart home products like locks, but that update isn't coming until next month. It's likely the Siri AI issue will be addressed in HomeView 27.3. Update: Apple's security support document says the software update addresses several vulnerabilities, including issues with AirPlay , Messages, and Bluetooth.

Trump Says Tim Cook Should Be Nvidia CEO as Jensen Huang Resigns
In a post on his Truth Social platform today, U.S. President Donald Trump said he thinks that Apple's chairman Tim Cook should become Nvidia's CEO. Nvidia today announced that Jensen Huang has resigned as the company's CEO effective immediately following reports that he had two extramarital affairs, including one that the U.S. government believes involved a spy working for the Chinese government. Nvidia has appointed its CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO. Nvidia's board of directors has initiated a search for a new CEO and said that it will consider both internal and external candidates. Cook stepped down as Apple's CEO on September 1 as part of a planned transition , and he now serves as the company's executive chairman. There is no indication that Cook actually wants to be Nvidia's CEO. Semafor on Wednesday reported that Apple's longtime chipmaking chief Johny Srouji is among the people that Nvidia is considering for CEO , but it is likewise unclear if Srouji has any interest in the role. Srouji was named Apple's Chief Hardware Officer in April, at the same time as Apple announced John Ternus would become its next CEO.

A quick look at DownDetector.com and the ThousandEyes Outages sites show huge problems across a large host of services. Its not just Slack and Redditits also Microsoft 365 services, including Outlook, as well as Azure hosting, Cloudflare, gaming networks, Gmailyou name it, its got a problem. Some users are reporting issues with some Apple services like iMessage, but Apples Service Status page currently shows everything green across the board.

It is not yet clear what the cause of the outages are or when they will be addressed. This stuff tends to be rectified pretty quickly, but well keep this article updated as we learn more.

India, Indonesia condemn terrorism, discuss cross-border terrorism at counter-terrorism JWG
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 12 (IANS) India and Indonesia on Thursday strongly condemned terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and exchanged views on threat assessments, including cross-border terrorism, at the seventh meeting of the India-Indonesia Joint Working Group on Counter-Terrorism in New Delhi, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said. The meeting was co-chaired by Suhel Ajaz Khan, Additional Secretary (Counter Terrorism) in the MEA, and Dionnisius Elvan Swasono, Deputy for International Cooperation at Indonesias National Counter Terrorism Agency (BNPT). As strategic partners, both the sides underscored the importance of bilateral cooperation in preventing and countering terrorism. Both sides unequivocally and strongly condemned terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, and reaffirmed the principle of zero tolerance towards terrorism, the MEA said in a statement. The two sides exchanged views on the domestic, regional and global terrorism landscape and threat assessments, including cross-border terrorism. They discussed current and emerging challenges to counter-terrorism, including countering radicalisation and violent extremism conducive to terrorism, combating the financing of terrorism, the misuse of the internet and new and emerging technologies for terrorist purposes, and the nexus between organised crime and terrorism, the statement said. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening cooperation in multilateral fora, including the UN, ASEAN, BRICS and FATF, to combat global terrorism effectively. The ongoing cooperation in counter-terrorism remains an important element of the India-Indonesia comprehensive strategic partnership, the MEA said, adding that the Indonesian delegation will visit the headquarters of the National Security Guard (NSG) on Friday to discuss avenues of bilateral capacity building. The two sides agreed to hold the next meeting of the Joint Working Group in Jakarta on a mutually convenient date. In July, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto strongly condemned terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and agreed to enhance cooperation in preventing and countering terrorism and violent extremism conducive to terrorism. The leaders also welcomed the early conclusion of the MoU on Cooperation in Counter Terrorism between the two countries, to be signed in the near future, the India-Indonesia Joint Statement had mentioned.

Jensen Huang Quits Nvidia After Chinese Spy Scandal, 2nd Affair Report; Colette Kress Takes Over
Jensen Huang has resigned as Nvidias president, CEO and board member, ending the era of the man who transformed a gaming-chip company into the engine of the AI boom.
