I appreciate this story very much. It's about AI but also about the obsolescence that thrives under capitalism. We need to think about how this impact people. Thanks for sharing a firsthand account.

I remember when the next big thing was a revolutionary product that combined three distinct functionalities into one device: a widescreen iPod with touch controls, a revolutionary mobile phone, and a breakthrough internet communications device. Are …

The blusterer-in-chief's newest Treasury nomination means there will be an adult in the room during tariff talks. Thank goodness. I know that his supporters think that China is the one paying and are gonna be shocked when the prices don't come down.

Chatbot isn't the right term. LLMs are going to enable a lot more than question and answer type of engagement. I'm assuming "Siri" stays as the interface and it'll be interesting to see how they upgrade it from the current model to an LLM-supported …

Very helpful. As someone with an older iPhone it sounds like I can wait a bit more to see if AI gives me a good enough reason to upgrade. I've been champing at the bit for an upgrade for a while and all the little differences - everything around cam…

I really don't know how this ends. Streaming doesn't make much money for anyone and it keeps growing in cost for the consumers. Some great re-bundling is nigh. Disney's offer is compelling but so are the others. We can't pay for them all and music. …

I agree that a subscription mouse is absolutely absurd but their CEO hasn't said anything about subscribing to a mouse. She mentioned the concept of a a quality "forever mouse" and mentioned that it's possible that people would want to pay for softw…

Uniquely Bay-area problems can be solved by Bay-area agencies, corporations, and people getting together. I applaud Apple for contributing to solving local problems.

I get that it's an obvious feature to add since they can do it, it might be helpful for a full HUD, etc. but I'm going to immediately hide that. I think the use cases for calculating this by bouncing signals off satellites are pretty slim and they'r…

AppleInsiderWe have to give one score, thanks to the overlords at Google. But, broken up, we give the smaller 2024 iPad Air a 3.5 out of 5, and the larger form factor a 4.5 out of 5. Wait, why are you hindered by Google at all here? Also, thank…
