  • Apple admits to using Google Tensor hardware to train Apple Intelligence

    While Apple kept pushing for unnecessary unused horsepower in their chips Google chose to focus on AI with the Tensor chip, and Apple was caught flat footed. I remember when Google first announced Tensor and everybody talked about how it wasn't as fast as Apple's chip and Google came out and said they weren't going for speed. This article makes me want to check out the new Pixel, I know the "AI" on it will be the real deal.

  • How to use Call Recording and transcription in iOS 18.1

    I wonder what the legality of this is? I remember always hearing that recording calls without the knowledge of the other caller is illegal and can't be used for legal purposes. From my very brief read about this it has a feature that allows the other caller to consent to being recorded but who's going to actually agree to that

  • Florida has temporarily suspended support for its digital driver's license app

    Sure this sounds super convenient but I'm not sure why everyone is rushing to have all of their data and identity controlled by Big Tech. I actually find it scary that one company has all your health data, personal information, banking information, and basically knows everything about you. That they'll use for their own corporate gain. There may not have been a data breach to date but the day there is, it'll be the most disastrous. I prefer my data to stay with the places that hold them now. With all that said I support regulation of big tech and think they should stay out of every industry

  • Apple Intelligence impresses now, and it's still very early

    Will ChatGP ultimately end up being 'Sherlocked'...?
    It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to find that Apple is working on their own solution with the intention of no longer needing to use ChatGPT or some other third-party. 
    Apple doesn't have talent to "Sherlock" ChatGPT, if they could they'd already have their own service instead of outsourcing to get it.
    What I do see Apple doing is trying to pass all this off as their own doing to the unaware masses who don't know.

  • How iOS 18 lets you neatly rearrange app icons and home screen widgets

    With this change I've noticed that the apps will go to the bottom of the screen but when you try to put a widget at the bottom there's a gap that prevents it from sitting at the same level an app would. This is beta 1 though so hopefully Apple fixes this
