Apple Just Announced a New Gadget that Could Be Key to Its AI Push

Apple is reportedly planning three smart-home products for October 13: a HomePad hub, an updated HomePod mini, and a new Apple TV 4K.
The HomePad may combine a roughly six-inch display, a speaker, smart-home controls, FaceTime, and personalised information.
The refreshed HomePod mini and Apple TV 4K are expected to retain similar designs while gaining faster processors to support Siri AI features.
Apple has not officially confirmed the event or products; reports also describe future security-camera and robotic-hub projects.
