According to Bloomberg, iPhone assembler Hon Hai said that signs of parts shortage have eased and are expected to see a significant improvement in the quarter.
A spokesman for Hon Hai Precision Industries said at a corporate event in Taipei that there will be a significant improvement in the shortage of spare parts in the first quarter, the overall supply constraints will be eased in the second half of the year, and Hon Hai's revenue in the first quarter is expected to change little compared with the same period last year.
Apple CEO Tim Cook also said in an interview at the time of the earnings release on Thursday that there is currently a shortage of supply for most of Apple's products, but it is expected to be initially alleviated in March, and there is currently a cautious attitude about when the industry's supply problems will be resolved.
If the shortage of parts in this quarter can be initially alleviated, it is the best news for Apple, which has a large number of products ready to go, but the current shortage of semiconductors is still in short supply, and the problems caused by the overall lack of cores in the mobile phone market are also plaguing Apple, and if you want to completely solve it, I am afraid that you can only wait until 2023.
According to foreign media reports, an American doctor used his mobile phone to watch movies in the driver's seat after enabling the Autopilot function on Tesla. An accident ensued, hitting a police car parked on the side of the road, which then hit a deputy sheriff.
It is understood that the driver was arrested and charged with violations and "watching TV equipment while driving". This isn't the first time Tesla's Autopilot has been in trouble. Last August, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration launched a federal investigation into the company. The investigation is investigating at least 11 accidents involving Autopilot and emergency vehicles, NBC San Diego reported.
According to Newsweek, Tesla has said that Autopilot still "needs active driver supervision" and "will not let the vehicle drive itself."
Tesla's autopilot is again a problem, everyone is afraid that it has become commonplace, if you can not disable this function, it will almost certainly be abused, but in order to publicize it, it has increased its efforts, I am afraid that this kind of accident will become more and more with the growth of the number of Teslas on the road.
