Apple is reportedly looking to automate more iPhone assembly lines and is planning to reduce its workforce by about 50% in the coming years. This move could change the global consumer electronics industry, allowing Apple to shift more business from China to countries like Vietnam, India, and even back to the United States. The company aims to automate iPhone production processes, yet faces challenges with the increasing complexity of iPhone designs. Despite setbacks, Apple is acquiring companies like DarwinAI and Drishti to enhance automation capabilities in assembly plants.
