@@zollotech I will call it groundbreaking when Siri is replaced with GPT 4o with both the vocalization it has and ability to understand what’s happening when camera is on, and ability to view and understand what’s happening on the screen.

I’m sure the metrics don’t lie Aaron, but please be mindful of the clickbait titles and how it impacts your more diehard fans. I like your videos for how thorough and accurate they are, so when I see a title that doesn’t match, it leaves a sour taste. Don’t become like Max Tech!

[@zollotech]

They aren't clickbait if what is in the title is talked about in the video though. I know some think they are clickbait, but to me that means nothing in the video is what I say in the title. I have a chapter marker with the title name as well as talk about it specifically.

When it’s all said and done, you will be paying for Apple AI, it’ll be free first and then they’ll be a monthly service fee.

[@zollotech]

I don't think so. Thay have never said this and it better have some pretty incredible additional features to pay for it.

[@Steve-racer]

@@zollotech Samsung is going to be charging for theirs when you bought the new S24 you get it free for one year. Then you have to start paying for it. Apple, any other companys is all about the money ,this is something they will end up charging for. Just like Amazon prime if you don’t want to see commercials, give them three dollars a month and turn them back off, if you don’t pay them three dollars then they make money from the advertisement. I’m not being negative. I’m just stating a fact that I believe will happen.

@@zollotech Apple could eventually require a paid subscription for some of its AI features, according to a new report. Lisa Eadicicco is a senior editor for CNET covering mobile devices. She has been writing about technology for almost a decade.

[@Steve-racer]

Apple eventually plans to turn some of its artificial intelligence features into paid services, similar to iCloud+ subscriptions, according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman

[@jimscard]

Unlike Samsung and others, Apple Intelligence is on-device, and Apple has already stated that it’s free. I can think of a few add-ons that they (or a third party) could provide on a subscription basis, though. For example, a “TV guide” type subscription that updates an on-device database with knowledge of upcoming TV and streaming shows that Siri can then use on-device to make recommendations to you using your personal context.

[@TAMS1952]

Hello @zollotech, I have discovered an intriguing anomaly that I have not encountered before. I am utilizing an iPhone 15 Pro Max, equipped with iOS Beta 18.1. Upon opening the Settings application, I observed a brief visual representation that closely resembles the screen displayed when a new update is pending installation. This visual element is fleeting, vanishing within a fraction of a second. Today, I decided to capture a video of this phenomenon to ascertain its nature. Upon reviewing the footage, I identified the specific point at which the iPadOS 18 Beta 4 update preparation sequence was displayed. It is important to note that this occurrence does not appear to cause any disruption or interference. Rather, it is perplexing that such an element exists in the background. Incidentally, I utilized Apple’s intelligence to create this message. I am very impressed with its capabilities.

You can enable Apple Intelligence outside the US by changing the region and the language in any country outside the EU.
