The European Commission fined Apple $2 billion on Monday for violating antitrust rules with its handling of music streaming apps.

Today's leading chatbots for the everyday user — OpenAI's ChatGPT, Microsoft's Copilot and Google's Gemini — are all best approached as tutors or assistants rather than information desks.
Why it matters: Getting started using any of these tools is easy, but knowing when and how to get the best results from them can still be tricky.
