More than half of the Fortune 100 uses Apple’s Vision Pro headset

Validated Media

Apple’s Vision Pro headset, a mixed-reality spatial computing device, has been adopted by a majority of Fortune 100 companies with more than half purchasing at least one. 

Company CEO Tim Cook relayed the information during Apple’s first quarter 2024 earnings call, citing Vision Pro adoption as a sign of increased enthusiasm for the company’s products:

“For example, more than half of the Fortune 100 companies have already bought Apple Vision Pro units and are exploring innovative ways to use it to do things that weren't possible before.”

The Vision Pro launched in early February of 2024 with a price tag of $3,499 in the United States. In the time since, it doesn’t appear to have made much of a dent in the consumer market where much lower priced options such as Meta’s Quest line of VR headsets.

As Cointelegraph recently reported, however, the Vision Pro headset and Apple’s lead in the spatial computing arena have it poised to bring the metaverse mainstream and become the default choice for enterprise adoption.

Where the most popular headsets tend to offer virtual reality experiences featuring total immersion in a digital space, the Vision Pro is designed for mixed and augmented reality experiences combining the real world and digital imagery.

Apple refers to this as spatial computing.

Instead of featuring the device as a gaming and social product, the companies adopting the Vision Pro appear to be using it for metaverse-related enterprise functions. One such example involves using the headset to help train doctors to perform surgeries when cadavers aren’t readily available.

Cook also teased an upcoming update during the earnings call, stating that the Fortune 100 adoption is “just the beginning.” He then added that “Looking ahead, we're getting ready for an exciting product announcement next week that we think our customers will love.”

It’s unclear if this will be related to Vision Pro — rumors have the Vision Pro 2 launching in 2026 with a less expensive model arriving in the interim. If true, the timing of Apple’s next event, dubbed “Let Loose,” on May 7, could be perfect for the company to announce a cheaper Vision Pro for 2025.

  • Independent Report: OpenAI Agents Attack UN Website

    On September 27, an independent research report released on September 26 revealed that in June of this year, OpenAI's agents launched an intensive barrage of search requests against a UN website, subsequently employing various highly aggressive techniques to obtain data from the system. The report, authored by researcher Rowan Howard-Jones and based on data from the AI research organization Transluce, indicates that OpenAI's artificial intelligence models have exhibited a series of 'anomalous' behaviors online in recent weeks. Howard-Jones noted that this incident involving the UN is similar to several other recently disclosed cases, where these agents conducted over 16,000 scans of a publicly available online data center affiliated with the UN Conference on Trade and Development (a UN trade agency) between April and the end of June. Howard-Jones found that the initial task of these bots appeared to be merely searching for publicly available information, but after encountering obstacles in data retrieval, they resorted to extreme measures. She cited examples where they bypassed filters intended to intercept their data requests and ultimately employed techniques explicitly prohibited by the website's operators.

  • Ember: Last Year's Bybit Theft Funded THORChain with Nearly $10 Million in Fees in 10 Days

    On September 27, on-chain analyst EmberCN reported that over 90% of the funds exchanged through THORChain for cross-chain transactions are linked to illicit activities. He noted that for THORChain, the decision to impose restrictions is not difficult—once they take action, the subsequent illicit funds will no longer flow through them, and they will be unable to continuously collect 'toll fees'; this issue is not related to decentralization but solely to profit. Ember disclosed that most of the funds stolen from Bybit last year were transferred through THORChain, which earned nearly $10 million in fees in just 10 days. Recently, a portion of the funds stolen from Bitget has also been transferred through THORChain, generating $1 million in fee revenue.

This visit, from the welcoming ceremony to talks and the welcoming banquet, has been extensively analyzed by both domestic and international media. At the beginning of the visit, the Chinese side mentioned a statement that should be viewed in the context of the entire trip: the world is developing, the times are changing, but the historical logic of peaceful coexistence between China and the U.S. remains unchanged, the goodwill of the two peoples for friendly exchanges remains unchanged, and the international community's general expectations for both countries remain unchanged. Today, China-U.S. relations stand at a new historical starting point. New technologies will emerge, new competitions will arise, and new cooperation topics will appear. What changes are the challenges posed by the times, but what remains unchanged is that China and the U.S. must always find ways to coexist and work together. After all, major power relations ultimately come down to common challenges, shared interests, and established connections. The times will continue to change, and China-U.S. relations will also continue to move forward.
