  • Everyone is a loser in the Apple Intelligence race

    No one says you have to use AI to write a resume, draft an email, revise an awkward sentence, but tbh as a tech reporter you should dabble. 

    Apple Intelligence- so far as I’ve been able to demo on my Mac - is barely discernible from regular Siri, and if you ask it to do anything spicy, it then asks you if you want to try with ChatGPT, which is certainly polite, but now two questions behind asking ChatGPT directly. 

    IMO just like apple hasn’t released a search engine, they’ve only released ai in name, obviously to keep up with the hype. 

    You said it yourself, llms are only useful with HUGE ( big is not big enough) datasets, and so being ethical will inherently limit a product. 

    If apple wants to compete, they’ll have to square that and/or buy a leader. 

    Read Joanna stern’s take on ai in the wsj for what I find to be a reasonable assessment

  • Apple could bring out second-gen AirTag by May or June

    Wild speculation- since apple C modems don’t (yet) have UWB, there will be some kind of alternative tech to allow for “Find My” beyond just directions
