今日主播仇莉娜說：
就在北京時間23日凌晨1點，蘋果將開始舉行首次採用線上形式召開的第31屆全球開發者大會。
據多方報導，本屆大會的一大看點就是蘋果有可能在硬體方面，在全新Mac產品中全面引入自研ARM架構晶片而非繼續使用英特爾晶片。
如果這一預測成真，那麼將是蘋果MAC電腦在使用英特爾晶片15年後逐漸與其「分手」的重要一步，也是蘋果公司在自研電腦晶片領域的重要裡程碑。有行業分析稱，這或許會改變英特爾在電腦晶片領域的壟斷地位。
據外媒報導，在軟體方面，本屆開發者大會預計將宣布iOS 14、iPad OS 14等系統迭代，但正式版本的發布，可能要到今年秋天。由於2019年全球iOS系統用戶量已超過9億人，因此iOS 14系統也廣受關注。
據外媒報導，iOS 14可能有以下幾個亮點：內置翻譯、新健身應用程式、增強現實能力和智能車聯網技術等。
