Apple is officially launching its Apple TV, Apple Music, Apple Devices apps on Windows this week. The apps were originally launched in preview last year, but Apple has now removed the preview tag after working with Microsoft to launch the apps.
The trio of apps, in combination with an overhauled iCloud for Windows app, are designed to move Windows users away from the reliance of iTunes, according to MacRumors. If you use Apple TV, Apple Music, and Apple Devices then iTunes is only required for access to podcasts and audiobooks on Windows.

The Apple Music app provides access to the iTunes library, alongside song and album purchases. Apple TV also lets Windows users watch movies and TV shows from their iTunes library, along with subscription streaming content. Apple Devices lets PC owners backup or restore iPhones and iPads, as well as sync content to those devices.
Microsoft has been working with Apple on the apps, and even welcomed their launch this week. Microsoft also previously rolled out iCloud Photos integration in Windows, enabling the ability to link an iCloud Photos library straight into the built-in Photos app on Windows 11.
Apple’s new Windows apps are only available on traditional x86-based PCs running Windows 10 or Windows 11, and there are no signs yet of ARM64 versions for Qualcomm-powered Windows devices.

戴爾科技（DELL Technologies） 9日舉辦媒體餐敘，針對今年AI當道，成為數據時代重要技術之一，從戴爾生成式AI脈動調查指出，78% IT決策者表示期待生成式AI在企業中發揮潛力 ，並將生成式AI視為提高生產力、簡化流程及節省成本的方式。採用AI從資料中獲取價值是企業現正積極執行的最重要任務之一，AI改變了資料收集、儲存和使用的方式，帶來新基礎架構、建立產品的新方法和更有效率的流程，並推動數據驅動的創新。

台灣戴爾科技集團總經理廖仁祥表示：「每個想保持競爭力的公司都需以某種方式實踐AI。AI、現代資料中心、多雲、邊緣、現代工作場所、安全、永續性是戴爾視為數位未來核心驅動力的關鍵技術，善用這些技術對於身處數位時代的企業來說相當重要，尤其我們看到台灣在製造業、電子設計、金融服務、政府與學術研究等產業，對此有非常迫切的需求。」
戴爾從五大關鍵著手 協助客戶更快將構想轉化為創新
根據戴爾創新催化劑調查 ，針對企業創新成熟度、未來創新及商業策略的分析，81%受訪者認為AI與生成式AI將使自己所處的產業出現激烈變革；56%受訪者指出創新是商業策略的重要部分，且已經在企業內各方面發揮效益；48%受訪者表示不知道未來3至5年產業會發展成什麼樣貌，顯見未來仍有很大的改變空間。調查中亦分析企業應如何通過成功的創新規劃應對挑戰，57%受訪者表示很難跟上變革的步伐；92%的企業其員工在推動創新時面臨挑戰；82%受訪者指出數據是凸顯差異化的要素，而生成式AI策略必須涉及到運用與保護資料。由此可見許多企業仍缺乏相關技術支援，且需面臨新技術和轉型帶來的諸多挑戰。
因應未來工作場景，企業創新者必須以策略性與全方位模式，運用關鍵技術更快將構想轉化為創新，涵蓋AI、現代資料中心、多雲、邊緣及現代工作場所等層面，並結合安全及永續性，獲取更多商業洞察並釋放創新潛力：
