Would the name “Copilot” not suck if Apple had used it first?

"we hope Apple may finally begin to take seriously." – author

Really?  "Finally" and "Begin"?  This culmination is well over 5 years in the making...
They didn't just begin, dude, gees...  To me the whole strategy of Apple's seems they have been lurking around the back, and are about to spring inside and go nuts on people!

I agree. They are building towards something, it’s pretty hard to dismiss now. But I wouldn’t call this a culmination just yet. But it definitely is a big next step. Looking forward a bit, and we can expect the next iPad Pro to gain the same abilities. I can’t wait till next spring for that! I also wish Apple would make a first party controller. Even if it was just something similar to a Backbone, I think Apple could really deliver a premium experience (Hall effect sticks, please)

I like the new sound 🤷‍♂️

For whatever reason, the tvOS 17 update is brutally slow - even after you get through the extremely slow "Preparing" phase. I've updated my iPhone and 4 iPads and my Apple Watch is nearly done updating, and progress bars on the Apple TVs (4K models and one HD) are moving at a sub-snail pace, like an elderly snail with a dry foot pad and cracked shell. Incredible, in a bad way.

Update: The ultra slow ATV 4K seems to be a unique case. All of my other 4Ks and one HD updated fine. Not terribly slow. The one malcontent ATV is still in a updating state after about 90 mins. It must have lost its marbles so I'll do a factory reset on it and start over again.

Update 2: After doing a soft reset by pressing the ATV remote Home and Menu at the same time for >5 seconds the Apple TV restarted, immediately restarted the post-preparation process. The progress bar that was previously stopped near the end point reset to the binning and gradually progress to completion after a few minutes. Update to tvOS 17 completed and the device seems to be working fine. Must have been a electron clot or something like that.

For me it was my Apple Watch that took the longest. Approaching 2 hours now…

One thing I wish Control Centre on tvOS had was an icon showing you how much charge the remote has.

Yes. I came to say the same thing. It seems like such an obvious and simple addition.
