- Apple reportedly shelves plan to replace 5,000 AppleCare staff with AI
According to MacRumors citing Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple had considered cutting roughly 5,000 AppleCare support roles and letting AI agents handle some phone and online support, but the plan is now indefinitely on hold. Apple still uses a generative AI assistant on its US and Canada support lines to answer product questions and offer troubleshooting, with an option to reach a human advisor, and is testing an AI chatbot in an "Ask" tab of the Apple Support app for some users. Reports do not say why the plan was shelved, nor confirm that the jobs will be kept permanently, so the takeaway is a pause on large-scale cuts rather than abandoning AI support.
