  • Apple execs explain Apple's position in the AI race & how it isn't necessarily 'behind'

    I support Apple’s approach to seamless integration of AI. AI will naturally recede into the fabric of our devices. I even understand their need to spin the current state of affairs. It is not an optimal position for them to be in, Apple will get this right in the end and they have enough time to do so.

    Where I think these comments miss the mark is trivializing the evolution of LLM functionality with the term “chatbot.” From Siri to Alexa to ChatGPT, the promise is always a natural language interface to our devices. To pretend that it should not be core to Apple’s user experience is simply not believable. It is more essential and thus not comparable to Amazon or YouTube. Our digital agents will be an essential part of how we interface with our devices. I get Apple needs to buy some time, but this will be core to human interaction with our digital ecosystem. For Apple to suggest otherwise is disingenuous.

  • 'Severance,' the biggest success on Apple TV+, will be back for a third season

    But season 2, ep 7 "Chikhai Bardo" is one of the most unique, creative, innovative, incredibly shot, edited, directed, and acted 50 minutes of television ever made, imho. Hopefully it will get the recognition it deserves.
    100%. In a season of spectacular filmmaking, that episode stands out. Super impressed with the finale, too. 

    For hardcore fans, the podcast is such a treat. For the S2E7 of the pod, they feature cinematographer Jessica Lee Gagné, who directed that episode. She is certainly a talent to keep an eye on.

  • Hands on: Everything new in tvOS 18 for Apple TV

    Disappointed Apple TV 4K is still limited to 48 kHz audio from both hi-res Apple Music  and streaming directly from a Mac. Imagine if your photo streaming was limited to 720 ppi.  :|
    Yeah, the situation is inexplicable. The AppleTV could be a great streamer and all-in-one media centre. The hardware limitations on a premium product make no sense and continue to disappoint.
    Agreed. It makes no sense for Apple to offer high res audio in Apple Music and still not support it in Apple TV, which is likely hooked up to the best speakers in the house. Like others, I continue to be annoyed by this obvious omission.

  • What's new in Apple Music for iOS 18

    I don’t understand why they still have not added high res to Apple TV to simplify the use of high res in the living room.

  • Canon: No camera can truly capture video for Apple Vision Pro

    The Canon dual fisheye on an EOS R5C produces two image on an 8k frame. The two images render to a single image which is half of 8k. This suggests two synced 8k cameras could work and that it doesn’t all have to occur on a single sensor as is suggested in that statement. 

    Regarding 60fps, my understanding is that there is meaningful evidence and experience to show that 60fps is a better experience in VR.
