Dan Moren from sixcolors.com joins Mikah Sargent this week on Tech News Weekly. A new report from Mark Gurman highlights new details for iOS 27. A look into a trend in London involving phone thefts & the lengths they go to unlock stolen devices for resale. And the Vatican unveiled its new papal encyclical on artificial intelligence.

Dan talks about a new report from Mark Gurman on Bloomberg about new details for Apple's upcoming iOS 27, which highlights a revamped Siri, a new system-wide search interface, and a standalone chatbot-style Siri app with support for third-party AI models.

Mikah shares a New York Times investigation that looks into a disturbing trend in London where phone thieves are escalating beyond simple theft to pressure the victim and their family members into unlocking their stolen devices for resale.

And Jacob Ward of The Rip Current joins Mikah to break down the Vatican's new papal encyclical on artificial intelligence that was unveiled earlier this week.
