Musk has the ability to predict the future. He is an excellent programmer. I trust him on this one and I can understand why he is worried.

Tell us you don't understand anything that was presented by not actually saying it.

And you 'trust Enron Musk' ouch!

Do you want me to use ChatGPT to do that? Cancel or Use ChatGPT

for me, if I select "Cancel" that means stop and don't do anything. It doesn't tell me that it's going to try and use Apple technology instead to get the answer I need. 

And also, I want to be able to disable this from being asked altogether on my kids' devices… and mine.

This also tells me that Apple is giving up on trying to implement their own LLM. 

Too much Red Bull today??

Because they're crap!

One powerful app wasn't mentioned: PHOTOMATOR - more of a photo developing app. 

Photomator on iPad and iPhone is extremely powerful. Especially in the bigger iPad screen. The interface and quality of editing RAW and JPG is exceptional. Unfortunately Photomator doesn't have the mind share value of the apps mentioned in the article. Photomator is also on Mac and every bit as capable.

Pixelmator is a light but solid photo editing app as well. It's available for iPadOS and iOS but in 2024 the interface is old and feels very much like a 'classic iOS' app. Meh!

Pixelmator Pro is Mac only but very powerful. Really wish they'd debut an iPad version. Pixelmator Pro might not reach feature polarity with Affinity Photo and Adobe Photoshop but that's okay. Not everybody needs every last feature. Pixelmator Pro (Mac) is super efficient and makes great ease of use for subject detection and background removal. And includes video effects/editing on equal level as the photo features.

Though I am a former Photoshop daily user, these days I'm heavy in Affinity Photo (iPad and Mac) and Pixelmator Pro (Mac) for editing. For photo developing I'm all in on Photomator on iPad, iPhone and Mac.

The typical 'too bad. my credit card is waiting. Apple is taking too long' crowd has entered the chat.

Meanwhile their current computer does everything they need everyday.
