  • Apple rumored to release iOS 26 at WWDC, instead of iOS 19

    I don’t hate it, it will tidy things up a bit, but if they spend anything more than a minute talking about it at WWDC then it will be a definite danger sign that they’re floundering.

  • OpenAI's $6.5B bet on Jony Ive could redefine how people interact with technology

    I find ChatGPT extremely useful. Right now I'm using it to understand the design and production testing of free space laser communications terminals used to communicate between LEO and GEO satellites, aircraft and ground stations. About two weeks ago I was having it help me troubleshoot an alignment/calibration issue I have with the optical module in a Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500M scanner. I've used it to analyze results for PCB layouts that I have simulated in HFSS. I think the first time I started using it was to help decode proofs written in shorthand Einstein notation (summation convention) used in relativity to do calculations quickly for high level tensors that I needed to understand in a book I had on piezoelectronics. So I find it very helpful.
    Did you ask ChatGPT to make up an assortment of impressive sounding uses for ChatGPT?

  • Tantalizing details of Jony Ive's AI device leak after OpenAI meeting

    Couldn't be more obvious that this is going to be trash.

  • OpenAI's $6.5B bet on Jony Ive could redefine how people interact with technology

    After reading John Gruber´s articles "something is rotten at Apple" and John Siracusa´s article "Apple Turnover", I have to say that something is really rotten at Apple. 

    Apple is behind in AI (LLM, Siri, their GPU capacity, human resources for AI etc.). 
    Apple is behind in their HW. Apple is launching foldables.... when?? 

    Apple has been rotten with their timid updates for iPhones. Camera gets better and better, but not much. 

    iPhone 17´s design is rotten.

    I mean.... What isn´t rotten?

    I do not expect too much from io or OpenAI, but I hope they prove me wrong. 

    At the end, it is due that we really need "cool" devices nobody is thinkg about yet. 

    Rotten Apple. 
    Agree with your general point, but couldn't disagree more with the specifics.  AI is an uncooked and destructive waste of time, and Apple aren't behind in hardware at all, their hardware is better relative to their competition than it has ever been. Software and developer relations is where they are falling over.  They have great products, that are being held back by their maker's greed and lack of care and attention.

  • Apple Glass will get custom Apple Silicon tailored for low power & camera control

    Basic common sense to let the ultra powerful iPhones do all the heavy-lifting and Bluetooth them to the glasses. That way the frames can be ultra slim, metal or like regular glasses instead of all of the current manufacturers going down the JOE 90 route.
    Lol, "basic common sense" to use a protocol with bandwidth measured in Mbps for so much visual data.  Good one.
