Apple is settling a class action lawsuit over misleading Apple Intelligence and Siri marketing, requiring the company to pay out iPhone owners directly. Bloomberg also reports that iOS 27 will let users swap AI models across Apple Intelligence features, a significant architectural shift from the current locked-in approach. Google Home upgraded to Gemini 3.1, now handling multiple sequential requests in a single interaction.
The nearly two-hour Waveform episode covers those stories plus Google's announcement of a dedicated Android Show event, a third round of iPhone Air complaints from David Imel, and a deep-cut segment called Newlyweds but Make It Tech running from the one-hour mark to nearly the 90-minute mark. That segment alone is worth the runtime if you want to hear how well the hosts actually know each other's tech habits and opinions.
The episode is light on hard news but heavy on opinion, which is the point. The iOS 27 model-swapping detail sourced from Bloomberg and the specifics of the Apple settlement terms from The Verge are the two stories worth clicking through on. David Imel also apparently broke the internet with a Threads post, covered at the 1:34 mark, details not disclosed in the description.
