Very good to see Apple actually using models based off local data. But that's got nothing to do with OpenAI. The ChatGPT integration is simply for outside work questions and uses no local data.

[@coinborg8305]

This feels like the actual birth of Siri and what it was meant to be. Siri is about to turn into Jarvis very quickly. 2030 Siri will be unrecognizable to 2020 Siri.

[@J35Y1]

No, it's the birth of anything. It's the death of privacy. Your photos, videos, messages, and everything you do on the web are all going to be out there to be reviewed. Enjoy- I'm switching to another os and staying away from this trap. If they start to do what BetterHelp does, you're all doomed lol

[@loonadeux]

The only time I “use” Siri is when I tell her to go away when I accidentally invoke her.

[@AlexWilhelmTWIST]

Been there more times than I can count, tbh

[@startups]

😆

[@petersuvara]

19:30 - Obviously Jason hasn't seen the Coffee Zilla video on the Rabbit R1

[@petersuvara]

Wow, I actually agree with Jason for once regarding Apples play in the space. A conservative, personalised approach. Much like the rest of their products, it feel like it's been fine tuned. Unlike the splatter gun approach from Microsoft, which has as usual massively backfired for them. Microsoft is definitely the Lester Adams of the AI Tech family.

[@J35Y1]

Siri scanning your photos and messages, to even the text in the photos. But people think their privacy is being protected.. WILD😂

[@greatestlivingamericaninve1245]

J Trade! Good rap name!

[@AlexWilhelmTWIST]

Don't give him ideas!

[@chitrasrikanth918]

Time to compliment new guy Alex…great focused perspective on tech and products without the needless politicization his predecessor seemed to ache for

[@davab]

Dr strange = sama

[@loonadeux]

using all of this expensive, ecologically destructive, slave labor-created tech for such incredibly trivial stuff seems deeply unwise

[@J35Y1]

it may be slave labor, but the world is currently fighting for any job, even slave labor jobs.
