Summary | The new iPhone operational system has a couple of new updates. There will be a new control unit and user surface making the iPhone increasingly similar to a full Mac. The in-house messenger iMessage has a lot of new emojis and stickers and allows the users to be more creative with their texting. It is however still no threat to WhatsApp because only Apple users can use iMessage. Siri no also speaks a bunch of new languages: she will be able to translate English into German, Chinese, Spanish, French or Italian.

Summary | The new iPhone X has a new safety feature. Instead of the finger print, it scans the face of the user to unlock or transfer payments on Apple Pay. The face scanner is 3D so that it cannot be tricket with a photograph of the owner. It is artificially intelligent and can recognize the device owner despite different hairstyles, beards, glasses, and so on. The face scanner can also find an emoji which mimicks the users facial expression.

Summary | A start-up company from Berlin offers anonymous fashion counseling by an artificially intelligent chatbot. Their corporate partner is Zalando and the chatbot can be used on WhatsApp and Facebook messenger. It does not seem to work very well though. To the question "what goes well with blue pants?", it responds "blue pants". To the question "what's in fashion right now?", it responds with a sweating emoji.

Summary | Chatbots are currently exploding. Some say that by 2020 humans will communicate with chatbots more than with other humans. Chatbots are digital chat partners that help organize one's schedule, keep track of shopping lists, can help book holidays, and provide various other information from within a mesaging app. Polls show, however, that only one in four people would consider using a chatbot right now. That may be because they do not understand all questions yet and there is room for improvement. They are designed to be great digital conversationalists using a lot of emojis.
