Physical sciences R&D. Where are we on the curve? We'll know once it goes asymptotic...

  • Apple Vision Pro $3,499 mixed-reality headset launches at WWDC after years of rumors

    It does not seem like a very Apple-y product, but that's not unexpected either. It's a first gen, and according to reports was intended for developers anyway. Three years out they may have something. At the moment it seems like it was pushed out to the retail market before it's fully hatched, and I'm not sure why altho I could guess there's some other nearly-finished products from potential competitors coming before the year is out. 

    No doubt some regular users here will rush to buy a Vision Pro anyway; after all, it's from Apple. By the time it's fully developed in gen 3 I would expect it to be half to a third of the current price. That's when it may capture my interest.  Or not.
    Well, it just saved me from buying more monitors, so it's pretty cheap.  3D camera capability looks fun.

    Meanwhile, Google and Meta are furiously working back at the drawing board...  Another Oh shi! moment for those guys, just like with iPhone and Apple Watch.
    So to be clear, this will act as a monitor for the Mac as well? I render heaps of output from Wolfram Mathematica as 3D plots. I can see Wolfram introducing a VisionPro 3D rendering engine. The tech incorporated is astounding for the bulk volume of the device.

  • Apple Silicon development led by 'incredible capabilities' of iPhone chips

    iqatedoiqatedo
    I've spent quite a lot of time recently querying ChatGPT, which is based on AI transformer technology running on massive Nvidia GPU server farm/s. Eventually though and even now to some degree, AI transformer tech will run locally. In response to a query about Siri, ChatGPT replied:

    'Apple's Siri, a virtual assistant integrated into Apple devices, employs a range of AI technologies, including natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, and speech recognition. These technologies allow Siri to understand and respond to user requests in a conversational manner.

    At its core, Siri uses natural language processing to interpret and understand the context of a user's spoken words. Machine learning algorithms enable Siri to learn from user interactions and improve its understanding and performance over time. In addition, speech recognition technology helps Siri to transcribe and comprehend spoken language.

    Apple continually invests in research and development to improve Siri's capabilities and provide a more seamless user experience. As a result, the underlying technologies and techniques employed in Siri's operation may evolve over time.'

    Looking forward to Apple's developments in the field (if we should look forward at all to future developments  :*).

  • Twitter Inc. no longer exists, now X Corp.

    X marks the spot... or perhaps not. Musk is a long-term thinker and operator. By the time X is the place for everything for everyone, Twitter will be barely a memory. AGI though might intervene even in his planning for good or not. Interesting times indeed (daily lol).

  • iPhone display orders decline 39% year-over-year

    I'm on an Xs Max. Considered the 14, however, the X is such a good phone. The battery still supports max performance and the camera is not too bad. I will very likely go for the 15. Is it possible many others are holding, waiting for the next model?
