Today, most generative image models basically fall into two main categories: diffusion models, like Stable Diffusion, or autoregressive models, like OpenAI’s GPT-4o. But Apple just released two papers that show how there might be room for a third, forgotten technique: Normalizing Flows.

iPadOS 26 is awesome, but it still can’t do these 5 Mac essentials

Before we deep dive into this topic, I want to mention that I love iPadOS 26. Yes, it’s the first beta, so plenty of tweaking and optimization still needs to get done. But overall, it’s been what I have wanted on iPadOS for years. That being said, a few things still hold it back from being a true MacBook replacement for some people. So if you’re debating between an or a MacBook, here are five essential things iPadOS still can’t do.

Report: Apple to announce ‘some’ App Store changes in the EU to avoid additional DMA fines

In April, Apple was fined 500 million euros for violating the Digital Markets Act in the European Union. Since that penalty was announced, however, the company hasn’t announced any further changes to its App Store Guidelines to avoid further fines.

A new report from the Financial Times today says that Apple is “locked in last-minute” negotiations with the European Commission about ways to ease its App Store anti-steering provisions.

iPadOS 26: Testing the new local capture for podcasting

If you’re a creator or podcaster, I’ll bet your ears perked up towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, when Apple announced that built-in local audio and video capture during calls would be coming to iPadOS 26.

And while I have tried (and repeatedly failed) to fit the iPad in my podcasting workflow, I knew Jason Snell would be one of the first to take the feature for a spin. And he did just that.

$33.28/mo for a MacBook? Meet the MacBook Upgrade Program

With Apple’s latest MacBooks pushing performance further than ever, buyers are moving away from the old-school, pay-upfront model. And one company is quietly reshaping how Mac users get their next device.

For years, Apple fans had two options: pay thousands of dollars upfront or finance through a 12-month plan (often with limited availability). But now there’s a third option that’s gaining traction: Upgraded, a MacBook subscription service built to make getting a new MacBook as easy and affordable as humanly possible.

I’m not typically an iPad fan, but the M4 iPad Pro changed my mind

For the longest time, I had believed that purchasing a new iPad at full price never made any sort of sense. Ultimately, you’re paying more than an equivalently spec’d , for less capability. It always felt like iPadOS was the key limiting factor for the iPad, not the hardware.

However, I’ve now owned an M4 iPad Pro for nearly a year, and I can confidently say it’s changed how I feel towards iPads. And that’s before factoring in all of the great new features in iPadOS 26.
