  • AI-enhanced Apple Glass smart glasses set for 2026 release


    Digital assistant Siri will obviously be involved with the glasses, which should also be in a greatly improved form by the time they launch. 

    SIRIously???

  • WWDC 25 visionOS 3 wishlist: what we'd like to see next for Apple Vision Pro

    WWDC.. And Apple is still pushing Vision Pro??? 

    While Alphabet delivers impressive Google I/O, Apple still plays with such failed features.

  • Apple Intelligence set to be opened up in iOS 19 to third-party developers

    Battery Management: iOS 19 will introduce an AI-powered battery management mode that profiles user routines and throttles background tasks.

    Wi-Fi Captive Portal: iOS 19 will save captive-portal credentials to iCloud Keychain and sync them across devices.

    Default Voice Assistant: EU regulations will force Apple to allow users to choose a default digital assistant other than Siri.

    System-Wide Assistant Feature: Users can set a preferred AI assistant (Gemini, ChatGPT, etc.) and potentially invoke it with trigger words.


    I am 100% sure that Apple tries to let Siri die alone and quietly by letting users choose their preferred AI assistant. If this feature is rolled out, you will never ever hear about Siri or Siri Chat/voice assistant. 

    Something is and remains rotten forever.

  • Falling China exports signal a major shift in iPhone production & pricing

    Apple should move production of its most sophisticated and advanced components to North America and assemble and produce other components in India, China, Europe, UK, Vietnam,...  
    You have never worked in manufacturings or supply chain, haven't you? 

    You rather sound like a compromised Trump.

  • Apple's AI head John Giannandrea isn't going anywhere, despite delays and stumbles

    Well... Apple would like to fire him, but if Apple did, then excellent researchers would follow John and leave Apple.
    This domino effect is what makes Apple concern.

    Anyone who followed John's philosophy should be fired also.  They had 6 years to get Siri to compete and failed miserably.   A new direction is needed for the gen AI era.

    I think we should fire Federeghi also. 
    John asked for more AI resources, but Federeghi was not convinced by AI (until he used ChatGPT). 
    Luca Maestri did not accept to spend more money on GPUs. 

    So.. Overall.... Not only John, but also Federeghi must be fired. Luca is gone. 
    Ah yes, The American Way™. Fire people so we can hire new people to make new mistakes. God forbid an organisation builds collective experience. I'm willing to bet Federighi will not let himself be surprised that easily again.
    Why not? They could fire Scott Forstall.
    So why can´t Apple fire some less competent executives?
