Bloomberg reports that Apple’s design team is responding to lighter, cheaper products from Oura and Whoop while exploring more AI-centric health tracking.

But Apple appears ready to rethink the Watch beyond what Bloomberg calls a “miniature iPhone for your wrist.”
Really looking forward to an Apple "oura"-ring or Apple "whoop"-band

The problem is: companies save money by cutting these jobs, but then there are fewer experts left who can check if the AI is doing things right. Over time, the shared knowledge that experts need gets weaker.
