A FUTURE EXTERNAL MAC MONITOR WILL HAVE AN ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Apple reportedly plans to introduce an external Mac monitor that can act as a smart home display when the Mac is in sleep mode or shut down. The feature will be available on at least one monitor in an upcoming lineup. The upcoming display could potentially run on the iPhone 14 Pro's A16 chip. Apple is switching the AirPods charging case to USB-C this fall.
