  • Tim Cook: We spent on AI companies in the quarter, but nobody big

    ApplePoor said:
    Not going to be lots of "Thanks" coming from the hundreds of millions who purchased the iPhone 16 models that were falsely advertised last year they would have a working "Siri assistant" in 2024/2025.

    Folks should just pass on the iPhone 17 series that is rumored to get 12GB of ram when next year we will see 16GB of ram on every Apple product as the minimum for Apple AI (what ever that means) and all prior generations will have crippled performance due to insufficient memory.

    The tariffs will just add insult to injury to the buying public. Hopefully, Apple sales tank and they have an awakening that lying to the customer base has consequences.

    Somehow, from 1990 to 2024, Apple was able to introduce new products without a bunch of significant lies. The deceptive advertising happened on Tim Cook's watch and there should be negative responses from the Board of Directors and certainly NO bonus money or stock options. Somebody has to be held accountable that is currently employed or soon to be a "former" employee of Apple.
      This is some over the top scolding from someone who obviously has never been part of a technology product development cycle.  Sometimes the goals are aggressive and you miss. That’s what taking risks means.

  • No India tariff deal means Apple will face iPhone import fees eight times higher than befo...

     You worry too much about something that has a good chance of never occurring.  And if Trump is one thing he is a negotiator, and I believe it highly unlikely Apple will be hit with a 25% tariff.

  • iPhone 17 may have been spotted in the wild

    If the guy gets fired as a result of AI publishing this picture you better believe he has a really good case. After all there is a reason Google Maps blurs faces.
    This is really shitty behavior from AI, sorry. And saying “you’re out there, you’re fair game” is just gross. You guys really shat the bed on this one, sorry. 
     Why would he get fired he did nothing wrong? If he is tasked with going into the public and using the prototype iPhone then there is always a risk of this.  Because someone with a sharp eye takes a photo is not his fault.

  • Meta wants to upload every photo you have to its cloud to give you AI suggestions

     Never trust the Zuckerberg with anything so important and private.

  • Five ways macOS Tahoe makes you radically more productive

    Number 5 is odd since I seem to have always been able to use my M1Pro MacBook Pro to answer my phone.
