  • Apple insists its AI training is ethical and respects publishers

    I mean this all sounds good until you realize Apple doesn't really have a product in this field. Apple Intelligence is a nothing burger and instead of publishing research papers they should get on the ball and get competitive in this field.
    So you want Apple to engage in shady practices?

    0 percent for US companies into Vietnam is incredible

    The fact Vietnam is wiling to agree to this show the ominous power of America 
    It shows that the demand for US imports is so negligible that it doesn't matter.
    No, these countries all had trade barriers on US goods

    Did you know that Australia does not allow US beef because they say it’s poisonous due to poor US ranchers techniques ? Are you dead from eating UA beef? I am not.

    Europe did same to American chickens .

    That is why US export numbers so low and what Trump trying to fix 
    From personal experience, US chicken smells funny.

    Incredibly stupid idea. 

    Apple already has the MacBook Air. 

    Now they want to make an iPad with a keyboard but no touchscreen?

    the iPhone SOC is for the phone. 

    Don’t weaken the Mac just to have an even cheaper model. 

    Sounds really bad. 
    Why not? I’d love an updated sub 900g notebook for travel. As I age I just couldn’t be arsed to lug so much around unto aircraft.

    So it's an iPad, without a touch screen, with a fixed keyboard and runs MacOS.

    .... I don't get it.
    That’s like saying the current Macs are iPad Pros without a touchscreen, with a fixed keyboard and runs MacOS.

  • Car makers reject CarPlay Ultra as an Apple overreach

    I like the idea of car play, wish I had it in my car, but I don't understand why Apple bothers with it. I assume it's pretty niche and low revenue. Is there a long-term play they need to keep the foot in the door for?
    For me at least it’s one more reason to stay in the Apple ecosystem. Now having said that, while CarPlay is a must, CarPlay Ultra is a nice to have.
