Some users are randomly getting locked out of their Apple ID accounts
I had a issue around this earlier in the year. They were going to take away my @mac.com email address that I had since day one and force me to just have @icloud.com. I was like over my dead body. Fortunately it got resolved. But yeah they made me reset my password 3 times. The issue went all the way up to Apple Engineering. The thing that I didn’t realize is that it made signing into my old Apple devices that don’t natively support Apple’s 2fa a pain in the butt. If anyone has issues with getting back into their old Apple TV 2nd generation, don’t use iCloud to sign in, you have to sign in separately for just your iTunes account as the rest of the features like Photostream are discontinued. -

Elon Musk's latest anti-Apple tirade is about a ChatGPT feature that doesn't exist
Do you want me to use ChatGPT to do that? Cancel or Use ChatGPTfor me, if I select "Cancel" that means stop and don't do anything. It doesn't tell me that it's going to try and use Apple technology instead to get the answer I need.
And also, I want to be able to disable this from being asked altogether on my kids' devices… and mine.
This also tells me that Apple is giving up on trying to implement their own LLM.

Hands on: Using the iPhone as a webcam with iOS 16 and macOS Ventura
indieshack said:Apple should hold a WWDC every few years and not feel the need to update MacOS or iOS every year - I thought yesterdays keynote RE: iOS and MacOS was pretty lame - the iPhone as a webcam is symptomatic of this.
Remember that WWDC is firstly a Developers Conference to aide and assist 3rd party developers and to help them with the tonnes of changes, features and upcoming changes and features that they will have to account for and deal with. On the surface it might not look like there is a lot of new stuff going on, but there is a lot. Back in the days of real in person conferences there was so much to learn that you didn't have time to take it all in. At least being virtual allows for us to digest it over time. The Keynote is Apple's opportunity for a show and they will use it. It might not have everything that is of interest to a customer, but to a developer these things announced yesterday were huge and full of potential and innovation for 3rd party developers.
