    "the car maker believes that Autopilot is safe to use, and that it only becomes a danger when drivers are not paying attention to the road"

  • Google could charge Apple users for AI tools in iOS 18

    ... and so to me one fundamental ask is where is all this AI 'intelligence' (for profit) coming from ...?

    This red flag went up with the first post Steve Jobs introduction of Photos where all images were to be scanned, tagged and referenced at a customer's computer time and expense and then remotely updated to other devices (vs the 2' USB cable on a desk) via Apple servers - for most in a foreign jurisdiction...

    This all under a guise of improving on iPhoto despite the many complaints and loss of Aperture, iWeb and other elegant synchronized productive software that seemed more about a 'bicycle for the mind' than 'all roads lead to our data servers' sync requirement... Does ANY core 'free' Apple software come without a privacy warning now ?

    And then there are the 'Learn from this App' Siri settings - granularly on by default with no global off privacy setting - every new app download requires follow up to turn this off...

    Who owns and deserves to be paid for AI...?  Lawyers start your engines...?

    How many are disclosing their valuable IP via gmail, iCloud or other online publication that may be missing the bigger picture...? 

    '... but it's free...' will time tell...?

    Has the mac changed from a bicycle to a dragnet for the mind...?
