The open-Source project vphone-cli enables a full iOS 27 system to run as a virtual machine on Apple Silicon. Built on Apple's own Virtualization.framework rather than traditional emulation, the project opens up new possibilities for security research, reverse engineering, and automated iOS testing.

Gemma 4 can be paired with multi-token prediction (MTP) drafters that use speculative decoding to generate multiple tokens in parallel, allowing the model to verify them in a single pass and achieve up to ~3× faster inference without quality loss.
