You're tuned in to Tech Beat. Here are the stories shaping the conversation today.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference is on the horizon, and all eyes are on what the company will unveil. Expect the usual parade of operating system updates — iOS twenty-seven among them — along with the possibility of hardware teases. It's one of the few events where Apple still commands the room.

Shifting to energy, a fusion power company in the United States has formally requested a grid connection for what would be the country's first commercial fusion plant. That's a significant procedural milestone — moving fusion out of the lab and into the infrastructure conversation. The technology has long promised clean, abundant power, and this step suggests someone is betting it's closer than the skeptics believe.

And in the developer community, a lively thread on Hacker News is asking a deceptively simple question — what are people actually using for AI-assisted coding right now? The answers reveal a fragmented landscape of tools and providers, with developers weighing cost, capability, and convenience. It's a snapshot of how quickly this space is moving, and how unsettled it still feels even for the people building with it every day.
