  • Apple engineers allegedly testing AI-generated language features

    Apple’s so embarrassingly far behind in the AI game. Despite being among the earliest. 

    They should outsource this or partner for it, and move along. 
    Catching up in AI is mostly a matter of spending money, with most of that money being spent on computer hardware.

    Apple has a lot of money, so if apple wants to catch up, they will. 
    So why didn’t Apple? 

    Unless you’re (untenably) suggesting the company has had no interest in AI…

  • Apple MR headset may be delayed by software problems

    AR/VR is a solution in search of a problem. I have little doubt Apple will pull this like they did the (rumored) car. 

    If Apple had only spent a fraction (on the utterly, embarrassingly useless Siri) of their R&D  budget to achieve what OpenAI did with GPT-3, the world would have been better off.

    OTOH, if they did and have nothing to show for it, it’s time to seriously downsize.

  • Apple in 2023: AR, VR, HomePod, Mac Pro, AirPods Max

    This is the road map for 2023? Apple is, at best, going sideways. 

    Time for a new direction. Which is going to require Tim Cook to move on. He’s been just superb over the past decade, but he has run out of ideas.

    Everything about their pursuit of a car without a steering wheel seems a bit off in the clouds to me. There are laws requiring steering wheels on cars. They have to be mostly round. Elon Musk ran into that when he wanted a rectangular steering wheel on one of Tesla's cars. 
    I drive a 2022 Model S with the yoke (what you're calling a "rectangular") steering wheel. It is not only perfectly legal in the USA, I find the yoke shape to be remarkably obvious and intuitive. After nearly 45 years of driving with circular steering wheels, I am asking, 'WTF was that all about?!" Sort of similar to my feeling when I first used the scroll wheel on my iPod, in 2021.
