iPhone 17 is said to use the same chip as iPhone 16: What this means for you
The iPhone 17 series is likely to launch in September 2025, and leaks have already started painting a picture of what users can expect from the next iPhone lineup. Among the more surprising revelations is that Apple may not offer a newer chip on the base iPhone 17 model. As per a research note shared by analyst Jeff Pu with GF Securities, the entry-level iPhone 17 will be powered by the same A18 chip that is being used by the standard iPhone 16 A18 chip, produced using TSMC's second-generation 3nm process (N3E), is no slouch in terms of efficiency and performance. However, if Apple does not upgrade the chip on the iPhone 17, it could disappoint some users, especially those expecting meaningful year-on-year improvements. But this move isn't new for Apple. We've seen a similar strategy before, with the iPhone 13 and iPhone 14. Both shared the same A15 Bionic chip and had identical camera and display specs. The iPhone 14 launched at the same price as its predecessor, but the lack of significant upgrades led to criticism about a perceived lack of innovation. Apple appeared to respond with the iPhone 15, which introduced a 48-megapixel main camera, a newer chip, a slightly different design and some other refinements, all without a price hike. In India, the iPhone 13, 14, and 15 were each introduced at Rs 79, If the iPhone 17 indeed uses the same chip as the iPhone 16, it's likely that Apple will retain the same pricing strategy. So, buyers can expect the iPhone 17 to launch at Rs 79,999 in India, while the iPhone 16 may receive a Rs 10,000 price cut after launch, similar to previous years. That could put the iPhone 16 at around Rs 69,999, making it a tempting Apple is expected to introduce some notable changes in areas other than the processor. For one, the iPhone 17 is rumoured to feature a 6.3-inch display, slightly larger than the 6.1-inch screen on the iPhone 16. More importantly, the phone may finally get ProMotion support, bringing a 120Hz refresh rate to the standard iPhone model for the first time. This would make scrolling and video playback much smoother, addressing a long-standing gap between the standard and Pro the camera front, Apple is tipped to double the resolution of the front camera, moving from a 12-megapixel to a 24-megapixel sensor. This should result in sharper and more detailed selfies, a change that could appeal to younger users and content creators. The rear camera is likely to remain a 48-megapixel unit, without the 5x telephoto zoom found on the Pro details for the iPhone 17 remain unclear, but with a larger display on the cards, Apple may opt to fit in a bigger battery than the 3,582mAh unit seen on the iPhone 16 short, the iPhone 17 could be more about refinement than reinvention, at least for the base model. While the lack of a new chip may come as a let down for some, upgrades like a smoother display, improved selfie camera, and possibly better battery life might still make the iPhone 17 a compelling choice, provided Apple holds the line on pricing. But, all these details are based on the leaks. Hence, people are advised to take them with a pinch of salt. But, users can stay tuned to India Today Tech for all the updates regarding the upcoming iPhone 17 series.

Hey chatbot, is this true? AI 'factchecks' sow misinformation
As misinformation exploded during India's four-day conflict with Pakistan, social media users turned to an AI chatbot for verification only to encounter more falsehoods, underscoring its unreliability as a fact-checking tool. With tech platforms reducing human fact-checkers, users are increasingly relying on AI-powered chatbots, including xAI's Grok, OpenAI's ChatGPT, and Google's Gemini, in search of reliable information. "Hey @Grok, is this true?" has become a common query on Elon Musk's platform X, where the AI assistant is built in, reflecting the growing trend of seeking instant debunks on social media. But the responses are often themselves riddled with misinformation. Grok, now under renewed scrutiny for inserting "white genocide," a far-right conspiracy theory, into unrelated queries, wrongly identified old video footage from Sudan's Khartoum airport as a missile strike on Pakistan's Nur Khan airbase during the country's recent conflict with India. Unrelated footage of a building on fire in Nepal was misidentified as "likely" showing Pakistan's military response to Indian strikes. "The growing reliance on Grok as a fact-checker comes as X and other major tech companies have scaled back investments in human fact-checkers," McKenzie Sadeghi, a researcher with the disinformation watchdog NewsGuard, told AFP. "Our research has repeatedly found that AI chatbots are not reliable sources for news and information, particularly when it comes to breaking news," she warned. NewsGuard's research found that 10 leading chatbots were prone to repeating falsehoods, including Russian disinformation narratives and false or misleading claims related to the recent Australian election. In a recent study of eight AI search tools, the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University found that chatbots were "generally bad at declining to answer questions they couldn't answer accurately, offering incorrect or speculative answers instead." When AFP fact-checkers in Uruguay asked Gemini about an AI-generated image of a woman, it not only confirmed its authenticity but fabricated details about her identity and where the image was likely taken. Grok recently labeled a purported video of a giant anaconda swimming in the Amazon River as "genuine," even citing credible-sounding scientific expeditions to support its false claim. In reality, the video was AI-generated, AFP fact-checkers in Latin America reported, noting that many users cited Grok's assessment as evidence the clip was real. Such findings have raised concerns as surveys show that online users are increasingly shifting from traditional search engines to AI chatbots for information gathering and verification. The shift also comes as Meta announced earlier this year it was ending its third-party fact-checking program in the United States, turning over the task of debunking falsehoods to ordinary users under a model known as "Community Notes," popularized by X. Researchers have repeatedly questioned the effectiveness of "Community Notes" in combating falsehoods. Human fact-checking has long been a flashpoint in a hyperpolarized political climate, particularly in the United States, where conservative advocates maintain it suppresses free speech and censors right-wing content -- something professional fact-checkers vehemently reject. AFP currently works in 26 languages with Facebook's fact-checking program, including in Asia, Latin America, and the European Union. The quality and accuracy of AI chatbots can vary, depending on how they are trained and programmed, prompting concerns that their output may be subject to political influence or control. Musk's xAI recently blamed an "unauthorized modification" for causing Grok to generate unsolicited posts referencing "white genocide" in South Africa. When AI expert David Caswell asked Grok who might have modified its system prompt, the chatbot named Musk as the "most likely" culprit. Musk, the South African-born billionaire backer of President Donald Trump, has previously peddled the unfounded claim that South Africa's leaders were "openly pushing for genocide" of white people. "We have seen the way AI assistants can either fabricate results or give biased answers after human coders specifically change their instructions," Angie Holan, director of the International Fact-Checking Network, told AFP. "I am especially concerned about the way Grok has mishandled requests concerning very sensitive matters after receiving instructions to provide pre-authorized answers."
