Custom compliance settings for macOS just went GA in Intune, which means a lot of Mac admins are about to ask an AI to write their discovery scripts. Here is the prompt-review-test-deploy loop that keeps a fabricated preference key from locking out ten thousand users.

What started in Xcode 26 as a single "Intelligence" chat panel has turned, by Xcode 26.3, into a genuine three-way race: Anthropic's Claude, OpenAI's Codex, and Apple's own built-in assistant are all sitting in the same IDE, all able to touch your code, and all fighting for the same job.

The iPad has always been the creative's device — a canvas for illustrators, a drafting table for writers, a mood board for designers. Add Claude into that workflow and it becomes something more: an AI collaborator that helps you move from blank page to finished piece faster, without losing the creative edge that made you reach for an iPad in the first place. Here's how writers and designers are using Claude on iPad to sharpen their creative process.

However, a few features included in this release genuinely matter for my day-to-day work on a Mac. They deserve ten minutes of your attention before you return to your projects. Here’s a brief o

Apple's built-in accessibility tools on macOS Tahoe 26 are better than they've ever been. VoiceOver has been mature for over a decade. Live Captions transcribe audio system-wide. Magnifier finally came to the Mac and works with your iPhone or any USB camera. Accessibility Reader reformats any text in any app into something easier to read. If you have visual or hearing impairments and you use a Mac, the baseline is solid. What AI adds is a layer on top of that baseline — speci

If you spend any time in Adobe’s Creative Cloud apps on your Mac, today’s news is worth paying attention to. Adobe just announced a brand-new AI assistant called Firefly — and it works directly with Claude. What Is the Adobe Firefly AI Assistant? Adobe’s new Firefly AI assistant is built to work across its entire suite of creative tools — Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, and more. Instead of manually clicking through menus and panels, you simply tell it what you want and

The AI assistant landscape has become crowded fast, and for IT managers trying to make sense of what to evaluate, what to deploy, and what to recommend to leadership, the noise can be overwhelming. Anthropic's Claude stands out from that crowd — not just as a chatbot, but as a platform with multiple access points designed to meet users and developers wherever they work.
