  1. Hear me out. I'm excited about this if it means making shopping better. I want a better shopping assistant. I want someone to do all the work for me (read reviews, do product spec comparisons, price, shipping etc) and just tell me what to buy for 85% of things I purchase online. ChatGPT has this potential, but sucks at it. I'm probably going to buy it on Amazon. Work together and it'll be magic for me.
  2. Did they develop this capability outside the US?
  3. Does this signal the a big market for AI processing is at the edge?
  4. My assumption is that most users won't actually care if the LLM is in the cloud or device. That said, quite a few folks have iPhones and Apple's only way into the AI race is to go to it's strength, 1B+ hardware devices that they design the silicon for. They will produce a phone that runs a local LLM and market it as private and secure. People upgrade every couple of years (lose or breaks) so this will drive adoption. I'm not saying people will vibe code on their iphones.
  5. Based on the recently released graph of how people are using chatgpt. ~80% of use cases (practical guidance, seeking information, writing) could presumably run on a local model.
  6. The bubble pops when Apple releases an iPhone that runs a good enough for most things LLM locally. At that point cloud hardware investments will plateau (unless some new GPU melting use case comes out). Investors will move from nvidia, AMD into Apple.
  7. I give this one a big maybe.... What's definite is Cook talks a lot about design but clearly has no handle at all on function or marketing. Everything from the overly scripted, mercurial presentations to examples used in canned videos is all so far from reality it's a caricature of itself.
  8. The lack of authentic examples diminishes the impressive tech. Great design is all about function. Why is it so hard to show how this would actually be used in the real world?
  9. Impossible to oversee. Everyone presenting was so old. It's like they were imagining what was hip and cool. Lets have a women doing salsa facetiming... who would she even be talking to in that scenario??
  10. Agreed live translation on airpods killed consumer smartglassses killer AI feature.
  11. Long time apple fanboy. I've watched most of these unveilings for the past 20 years. The new phones are impressive. But it was all speeds and feeds. The examples felt so wrong. The women dancing while on the phone. The guy running with while recording. The person needing translation to buy roses? None of those feel grounded in reality. It's like they are building tech for made up in corporate conference room use cases.
  12. Every time I read about a big publicly traded company say something "we're like a startup" I just LOL. Startups win by doing something really disruptive that actually works. You only hear about extreme success. Most things fail. If SNAP allowed each startup squad (10 users) to actually operate like a startup, they'd launch 500 unique disruptive features per month, every month until they hit a growth curve. I'm skeptical that's actually happening.
  13. I don't personally have any regrets, because I'm that kinda person. But there are people who prioritized travel, dating, health and personal experiences who have better stories from that period than I do knocking out bugs or shipping a feature that no one ever used. I bought into the mission of the founder. Sure he remembered me when he saw me, but I doubt he thought of me once in the period in between. I remember feeling pretty disappointed after that encounter. Like I bought in, put in the work, it didn't work out and the guy that I followed didn't even remember my name. Prior to that encounter I shared that experience as a badge of honor. After reading this thread and posting here I can't help but think what a waste of time...
  14. This is wild. Meta, OpenAI, MSFT, Nvidia are collectively keeping the AI trade alive, which is propping up the stock market and overall perception of the economy. This admission makes it clear that the AI spends are being made up not based on business value/demand...
  15. Totally. The point is, this guy who's mission I dedicated a good portion of life to clearly doesn't think about me at all after the fact. I'm sure he's gratefuland values me. But if I was part of his story he'd remember my name.
  16. True story. I grinded hard at a startup for years. This was a decade ago so the concept of 996 wasn't part of the lore yet. But it was fun. We stayed late and I made life long friends. I worked closely with the founder (really awesome dude) as I was an early-ish employee. The company ended up not working, our equity went to zero and we got what you get when you don't get rich, experience. I ran into the founder randomly on the street years later. He didn't even remember my name. He recognized me and was excited to see me, but he had no idea what my name was. So yah, prioritize your life.
  17. because developers would immediately make ick apps that violate privacy or do black mirror type things that would kill any momentum
  18. What does this even mean? "Progress isn’t linear. It’s dynamic, sometimes dissonant, and always demanding. But it’s also a new opportunity for us to shape, lead through, and have greater impact than ever before."
  19. checkout www.Airwave.us. They are focused on field services where techs comb through thousands of pages of manuals/documentation for part numbers or specific instructions that have to be 100% accurate.
  20. Are corporations really comfortable dumping all their data/files to openAI?
  21. smart glasses is exactly where I saw this interface working and being developed for
  22. I can't help but think, jeez these features solve (non-existent) problems for first world rich people.
  23. Isn't this what chatgpt enterprise is?
  24. Only way to know for sure you're safe from replacement is if your job is a necessary part of something generating revenue and your not easily replaceable. Otherwise you should assume the company won't hesitate to replace you. It's just business.
  25. I do this as well! There is a link that android users can use to view, not sure about upload. My feature wish is that you could associate a shared album with a group message and then it's all I'd ever need. Also not sure you've run into this, but we recently hit the 5K pic shared album limit and had to create a new album.
  26. Know your working style. Identify if there is a direct report with similar style. If no, they are not a good manager for you. If yes, ask them directly if they are a good manager.
