The second trailer released last night, and you can check it out right here.
Elsewhere, there’s bad news if you were hoping to snag an iPhone 14 Pro or Pro Max before Christmas. After a combination of covid lockdowns and labor protests have impacted production at one of Foxconn’s plants in China, one analyst predicts that Apple might ship 20 percent fewer devices this quarter compared to its original projections.
Finally, here’s a silly tweet:

Musk tweeted that he met with Tim Cook at Apple’s Cupertino headquarters, and we are told Apple employees saw the pair walking around. No details on what they discussed, but Musk sounds a lot kinder toward Apple for now.
This comes two days after Musk tweeted a meme indicating he would “go to war” with Apple over its 30 percent App Store fees. That tweet has since been deleted.

Zuck is speaking at The New York Times’ DealBook conference today, and said that Reels is growing, according to Meta’s internal metrics.

That’s quite a bit different than the picture painted by The Wall Street Journal in September: it reported on internal Meta docs that indicated Reels usage on Instagram was less than one-tenth the size of TikTok.
