Apple has acquired Israeli startup Q.ai for nearly 2 billion dollars, its second-largest deal ever. The technology decodes facial micromovements to enable silent Siri commands, revolutionizing interaction for AirPods and Vision Pro. This signals a systemic shift toward intent-based communication that removes the privacy barriers of vocalization. By embedding physics-based AI into its silicon, Apple is building a bio-sensing moat for the spatial computing era. 🚀
