  • Apple is already being weirdly criticized for an AI effort that hasn't launched yet

    Personally, I'd rather see Apple develop its own internal AI.
    Well, they have been developing it all along - they just called it Machine Learning instead AI.

  • Now the US government is demanding users not wear Apple Vision Pro while driving

    Given how many people I see using their phones (mostly in their hands) while driving and while biking, I expect this to be an issue that won’t go away until there’s a unit you can use while piloting a vehicle of some kind. Having a heads up display in these situations, if they can enhance safety, would be a good thing. [NOTE: Boston has more shitty, inattentive, red-light blowing, willfully endangering others drivers and riders, than any other place I’ve been. Including the NY metro area and suburbs. Too many people lean into being a “masshole” when they get on the road. I pray for the day when people can no longer drive/ride without an AI minder.] (I’m sure there will be comments after this insisting that it’s a right to be a shitty driver/rider, or that they personally are the best driver/rider in the world, or some other such nonsense. You’re not. Your’re a shitty, distracted, entitled driver like everyone else. And the sooner we remove humans from the driver’s seat, the better.)
    Try driving on the DC Beltway anytime during the day. It will make Metro NY look like a cakewalk.

  • DOJ antitrust lawyers question Beeper over Apple's iMessage hack

    The FTC and DOJ need to open their eyes and understand that Beeper is trying to hack Apple software. This has nothing to do with competition and anyone at the DOJ or FTC with any brain should see it for what it is and understand what it isn't. Messages is Apple's product and just like Microsoft and Google software, along with the million other apps, there's no justifiable requirement that they have to work with each other. 
    However, I definitely think industry should work towards interoperability which has been a decades old problem and source of problems. 
    Well then there’s a lot of work ahead because literally no messenger in existence is interoperable with other messengers. In fact I’d say iMessage is more interoperable than most due it it’s fall back to SMS, which is truly a universal format. 
    That’s why it needs to be an industry effort. For it to happen it will no doubt require legislation. 

    So are you saying that you can't send text messages to anyone you want?  I send to every phone both Apple and Android, so what is the problem?

  • Apple privately described Android as a 'massive tracking device'

    Well, because Android is a massive tracking device.

    Good luck with the dawn of AI, and being able to manipulate and create millions of pictures without any context, or intelligence behind them, just press the button and go, within 10 years what’s real and what’s not?
    10 years?  We already have deep fakes now and it's only going to get worse as time goes on and technology gets better and easier to use. :(
