As an Apple customer I am entirely unmoved by their utter failure to shoehorn an LLM into their gadgets. I'm starting to think they might have dodged a bullet by missing the hype train.
Tangentially related, and correct me if I'm wrong because I will never in my life watch a "keynote" or whatever it is, but is it me or does "Liquid Glass" look like an accessibility nightmare?
I have not looked at a video just images but this looks like it is unreadable outside. Which brings up an interesting failure of testing, that they never left the building with the sun out.

it was entirely to appease Wall Street and not in any way because they had a product, let alone one consumers would be interested in

Given the last post, it appears Apple has both an AI hype division and a reality based division. Must be fun for people who has to work with both.

one of the best accessibility-related takes I've seen about it so far was this (via @fasterandworse
definitely not you
