- Apple cut some engineers’ daily AI spending cap to $200 from $300.
- Apple plans to lower some caps to as little as $100, with the cost-cutting changes fueling staff fears of layoffs.
Why it matters: Some engineers’ daily AI allowance drops by one-third, from $300 to $200, while Apple’s planned $100 minimum is a two-thirds reduction from $300. For staff, those concrete limits sit alongside reported fears of layoffs, making the cost-cutting effort tangible at the employee level.
