Market Chatter: Apple Plans Revamp of Built-in Photo Editing Features

By

-- Apple (AAPL) is planning a complete redesign of the built-in photo editing features for its products in a move to rely more on artificial intelligence-powered tools, Bloomberg reported Tuesday, citing sources familiar with the matter.

The company is working on a new suite of tools that are powered by its Apple Intelligence platform for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27, which are set for release this fall, the sources told the media outlet.

The new tools will permit users to extend, enhance, and reframe images using AI models that are on the device, with processing typically taking a few seconds, according to the report.

With the move, Apple is aiming to better compete with Android devices, which have offered AI-photo editing capabilities for years, according to the report.

Bank of Canada Keeps Neutral Rate Unchanged and Looks Likely to Stay on Hold This Year, Says BMO

The Bank of Canada is potentially on a long hiatus from policy rate changes, assuming growth and inflation evolve roughly in-line with current expectations, said Bank of Montreal (BMO).Consistent with that, the BoC on Wednesday left the assumed neutral range unchanged at 2.25%-to-3.25% in its annual April refresh, noted the bank.That leaves the current policy rate right at the low end of the presumed range.Holding the neutral rate down is the stall in population growth and the drag that it has had on labor force growth, stated BMO.Holding the neutral rate up is some improvement in productivity growth and firmness -- even a touch of upside -- in the United States neutral rates, which have an impact on Canada, according to the bank.All things considered, BMO is comfortable with its view that the BoC is on hold this year.
