Good afternoon,

Apple has released what it says is its biggest software upgrade in a decade, unveiling a raft of features including call screening, live translation and a new “workout buddy”. But the big reveal at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference in Cupertino was short on the artificial intelligence comeback that investors had been hoping for.

Digital receipts start-up Slyp has launched an AI-powered loyalty platform to help retailers take on the likes of Amazon and better compete online.

CBA has become the nation's biggest bank, helped by superior technology to NAB, ANZ and Westpac. It has been investing heavily in AI, with CEO Matt Comyn cultivating relationships with Amazon CEO Andy Jassy and Microsoft boss Satya Nadella.
