Your Daily Dose Of Technology News – November 18, 2025.
1. Amazon finalizes robotics and warehouse AI rollout:
Amazon announced broader deployment of its next-gen mobile warehouse robots and AI-driven sortation across North America and Europe. The company reports productivity gains and lower costs per fulfillment unit in pilot sites, while reaffirming commitments to warehouse worker safety and retraining programs. Labor groups remain critical and flagged renewed calls for stronger worker protections and transparency about automation impacts.
In Other News:
2. Microsoft completes Activision Blizzard divestiture plan in Europe (conditional release):
In response to EU competition concerns and earlier regulatory pushback, Microsoft moved forward with a revised remedy plan to satisfy the European Commission while continuing global integration of Activision Blizzard. The plan includes licensing of Call of Duty and other titles for specified periods to rival platforms in Europe, new governance guardrails for multiplayer ecosystems, and a legally binding commitment to interoperability features. Microsoft says the deal still strengthens its Xbox Game Pass catalog; critics say licensing windows are a partial fix and antitrust scrutiny will continue in other jurisdictions.
3. Qualcomm debuts next-gen Snapdragon X foldable/AR chipset:
Qualcomm introduced its Snapdragon X family chip targeting foldables and AR/VR headsets, emphasizing lower power draw for sustained mixed-reality use, integrated AI accelerators for on-device LLM inference, and enhanced imaging pipelines for passthrough experiences. Partners signaled new foldable phone and headset launches for 2026.
4. Large-scale credential-stuffing campaign affects multiple online services:
Security researchers and several consumer services reported a renewed wave of credential-stuffing attacks leveraging large breached-credential collections. Several mid-size banks and streaming services temporarily throttled logins, urged MFA enrollment, and reset passwords for impacted accounts. Authorities reiterated best practices: unique passwords, passkeys/MFA, and monitoring for phishing.
New zero-day in widely used open-source library disclosed, patch available.
5. China updates export controls on advanced semiconductor tools:
China expanded export control listings affecting certain lithography and inspection tools and tightened licensing for advanced node semiconductor equipment shipments. Observers say the move is part of ongoing tech competition with restrictions from Western governments, potentially complicating global supply chains and prompting further diversification of equipment suppliers.
Odds And Ends:
6. Crypto markets stabilize amid regulatory clarity in parts of Asia:
Crypto markets showed modest gains after regulators in a few Asian jurisdictions clarified stablecoin custody rules and licensing frameworks for spot crypto exchanges, reducing uncertainty that had pressured trading volumes earlier in the year.
7. NASA and private companies test new small-launch and reusable stages:
A private rocket company conducted a test flight of a partially reusable small launch vehicle, reporting successful stage separation and recovery operations. NASA highlighted the implications for small-satellite launch cadence and lower-cost access to LEO.
8. Google releases Android 16L incremental update for foldables and tablets:
Google published an incremental Android update focused on foldables and large-screen UX refinements, improved multitasking, and enhanced compatibility modes for legacy apps.
9. Automation anxiety and reskilling programs grow:
As wider adoption of warehouse robotics and AI-assisted tools accelerates, companies report increased investment in worker retraining programs, but labor organizations and policy groups say programs need clearer funding, timelines, and enforceable guarantees to prevent displacement harms.
10. Apple unveils developer previews for mixed-reality OS updates:
Apple released developer previews for the latest visionOS update and updates to iOS, iPadOS and macOS that introduce tighter integration with its Vision Pro headset, improved spatial computing APIs, lower-latency passthrough, and new privacy controls for spatial apps. The company emphasized content-creation tools and enterprise use cases — Microsoft and Adobe said they will bring optimized apps to Apple’s spatial platform next year.
Summary:
– EU AI Act enforcement actions and how major model providers respond.
– Upcoming CES 2026 previews (expected AR/VR, foldables and automotive displays).
– Continued regulatory scrutiny of large tech M&A and competition remedies.
– Security patch adoption for the disclosed open-source vulnerability — watch for incident reports.
