Kia as a possible partner for Apple Car
Practically since the beginning of this year, various reports have repeatedly appeared in the media regarding an autonomous electric vehicle from Apple. Initially, it was almost certain that Apple and Hyundai should establish cooperation in this direction. Not long after the said automaker released a report hinting at a collaboration, but things took a different turn. Huyndai later released a brand new statement that didn't even mention Apple, and rumors began that Apple had buried the collaboration for good. This Friday, however, there was news that all might not be lost just yet. Reuters reported that Apple reportedly signed a memorandum of cooperation with the Kia brand last year. It falls under the Hyundai car company, and the partnership with Apple in this case should include eight different sectors. Sources cited by Reuters say that even in the event of not concluding an agreement on an electric car, the possibilities of a partnership between Apple and Kia are quite large, and cooperation can be implemented in a number of other directions.

Apple and even better Siri
The possibilities of improving Siri have been talked about since the assistant was introduced. According to the latest reports, Apple is currently working on making Siri's voice and speech recognition capabilities even better. Apple has repeatedly made it clear that it wants to accommodate users with various disabilities as much as possible, and that it wants to make the use of its products as easy and pleasant as possible for them. As part of the accessibility drive, Apple wants to ensure that Siri is able to easily process voice requests from users who have a speech impediment. The Wall Street Journal reported last week that, according to available information, Apple is working on improvements that would make the Siri voice assistant able to process the requests of users who stutter, for example, without any problems.
