It was slow to introduce the Apple Intelligence platform and had to delay upgrades to its Siri voice assistant. The Apple glasses are expected to come in a variety of styles and run a new chip. They'll include speakers for music playback, cameras for media recording, and voice-control features that will work with a connected phone.
