  • Apple confirms that Apple Intelligence Siri features are taking longer than expected

    loopless said:
    You guys don’t reflect what most people use Siri for. 99% of people use Siri to dictate text and read messages or emails, and get directions using maps-  and it’s damn good at that. I don’t find google much better with understanding speech, if at all. And the second use case is to control a smart home. For both of these use cases Siri works great. If you want to ask idiotic questions about how many super bowls some team won, then go ask google. For complex questions, you want to have an interaction with ChatGPT but that’s a separate way to work with AI, and not really what Siri is intended for. Apple intelligence is not Siri. All the other tools like summaries and email categories are actually super useful. Apple has to build out massive AI compute farms and integrate Siri into iOS and apps, that takes time. And Apple likes to get things right.
    My experience using Siri to control home hasn’t been pleasant at all. For my smart lights I have a scene called twinkling midnight sky, when I tell Siri to set twinkling midnight sky it sets an alarm for 12 AM with the tag twinkling. It used to work most of the time, now it rarely works correctly.

  • Apple TV+ is losing billions of dollars -- as planned and expected

    I was very skeptical when the service first came out. However after watching Servant, Silo, For All Mankind, Foundation, and Severance I’m pretty satisfied with my subscription. Wasn’t a huge fan of Invasion though.

  • If you were underwhelmed by WWDC 2025, you're not alone

    This piece was a nice breath a fresh air compared to the majority of what is posted here. I think you should give Vision Pro a try though. I would never pay that much for one but it did have the sharpest screen I've ever seen. At least just for the experience lol.

  • Inside Apple TV 4K -- the best addition to your TV set

    I have both a shield and an Apple TV 4K. For official apps it absolutely is the best in that regard. However that remote is such a huge downgrade compared to the 1st gen box. Somehow my battery for that remote still lasts much longer than the new one. Not to mention feeling worse in hand as well in my opinion. Yes you can use use other devices as a remote, however I never felt like I absolutely needed to do that with the old device.
