I think this is good. For folks like you, that will always be an option. For people that have yet to touch ChatGPT and "still don't know how to access AI" (I've heard this sentiment from many people that couldn't care less about it all) it's a perfect balance. Siri will operate as you expect, until one day it prompts you to pass your question over to ChatGPT. You can opt out or give it a try.

I do agree that the extra tap is a bummer for anyone that wanted ChatGPT baked into the OS, even easier to access than it is in the ChatGPT app.
Same here. I switched from 1P to Passwords a while back, then switched back when I got a free 1P account from my job. I'd already started thinking about returning to Passwords, though. Much as I wish I could love 1Password, the current app is a mess. I have a Mac Studio without Touch ID and the "unlock with Apple Watch" feature almost never works. They also refuse to allow unlocking with YubiKeys (see https://www.reddit.com/r/1Password/comments/ttt2m0/yubikey_i...) for reasons I consider specious.

1P has some wonderful work-oriented features we use constantly. I don't like the direction it's going for personal stuff.
From MacRumors:

> Notes can record and transcribe audio. When your recording is finished, Apple Intelligence automatically generates a summary. Recording and summaries coming to phone calls too.

So the functionality exists, maybe just not in the Voice Memos app?
Most creators only have a small percentage of revenue from ads. A lot of the creators I like are demonetized anyways. Superchats and paid comments are way more lucrative than ads.

Google is in the malvertising business. Creators are not.
I’m super confused.

1. What is under the “Apple Intelligence” umbrella and what isn’t? There were a lot of AI features shown before that branding was brought up, I think.
2. The only supported iPhone is the iPhone 15 Pro? But any M1 iPad? Does this mean “Apple Intelligence” or all AI features announced? For instance…
3. For instance, is private cloud compute only available on iPhone 15 Pro?
TFA is behind a paywall, so I don't know if this was mentioned.

I've read that the Romans used to import arena sand from a certain area in North Africa because it was somehow better than the local sand. I think it was also used in upscale athletic facilities as well.
I don't have a full answer for you, but you've hit on the major problem with all client-side PWMs.
The lack of scam apps and crappy clones is the only real advantage that appeals to me. On the Play store you can type in the exact name of an app that someone has told you and it'll show you a whole page of fake and copycat apps.
I asked up thread and people apparently have concerns about the IP and think that AI images often lack taste.
So they have models running on Apple silicone in the cloud, does that mean it’s running its own models?
I just wish the systems exposed the confidence of their guesses to the user. Should be a big heat map and some drop-downs to focus your review once you’re done. Instead you just see the final results of its guesses (or gaps).

Seems to be an issue across commercial dictation systems, not just iOS.

Really impacts their usage in a hands-off and eyes-off manner.
You do not need a complex 3d model, very simple illustrations show it well.

But it has an on-device LLM plus an in-cloud LLM, that can handle many types of queries, so why would it be bad?
1password is too expensive when compared to Bitwarden or Keeper.

It's almost double the price per user so my company switched to Bitwarden.

We're a Mac shop and if Apple can make it even more affordable then we would definitely consider switching again.
Bitwarden here, and certainly a lot of people have moved, but we’re anecdotes. What’s the data say?
This seems intuitive enough, but I think the evidence makes it surprisingly unlikely. Not only is there a fairly clear path to getting humans to Mars that we're already quite far along on, but there's a fundamental roadblock with robotics that seems to have no real solution - even on Earth. The more moving parts you have on something, the more it breaks. And obviously vigorous movement results in things breaking even faster.

This is why on Mars the latest, and most sophisticated, drill can only go about 2.5 inches deep. [1] And it's used extremely sparingly, nowhere near max depth, because even given such limitations it tends to break very rapidly, as happened on Curiosity. And similarly, why the latest rover can only go about 0.07 mph [2].

And there's no real solution to these problems. Because even extremely minor failures, the sort a human could fix in a few seconds - like a drill jam, can easily mean end of mission on Mars. So the rovers are built with extreme safety in mind, but even that tends to result in relatively quick failure - moderately iterated upon in a ~decadal cycle. For now it seems to be mostly an inescapable problem.

For a brief moment at the intro of "private cloud compute" I was so hopeful that I could have a home-based Mac server for my own private iCloud and "Apple intelligence".
Siri already has an optional text button on the lockscreen. They changed the shortcut though. For me in ios17 it's a long press on the side button.
It's really cool that the Pico has the horsepower to do this sort of thing instead of having to reach for a FPGA.
A meaningful explanation of why a bridge collapsed would be: "Facing financial pressure, the board voted to re-open the bridge despite advice from its own experts that it was unsafe and faced a high chance of catastrophic failure."

What I'm hearing instead -- is a categorical focus on "incentive pressures", rather than on the obvious lapse of sound judgement on the part of those responsible. As revealed, quite plainly, by their decision to not go with what should have been seen as the only reasonable course of action here -- to resist the temptation to resort to dark patterns, despite the incentive pressures to do so.

You say you're "not defending it", but by attempting to but more focus on external factors ("incentive pressures") rather than on the poor judgement on the part of those responsible -- you're doing just that. You aren't denying that an error was made, but you are very clearly attempting to minimize the significance of it. The point of literally saying it was a "result of" external business conditions.

There's been a Keychain/iCloud Passwords chrome extension for years already
Orion Browser does something similar, I wonder if they make enough or if it’s subsidized by Kagi search?
What filereaper said. The taxes and labor regulations alone make the risk vs reward not make sense for tech startups, and that's without getting into explicit tech regulations.
I don't think that 4o will actually be available for free. It seemed like they were quite careful in choosing their words. My guess is 3.5 is free without an account, and accessing 4o requires linking your OpenAI account.
Am I understanding correctly that some AI will run on Apple servers? So not completely offline AI.

If so that's somewhat disappointing given how much AI power Apple hardware packs.

> Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers

This is why you shouldn’t copy this strategy.
So, sort of like game dev? Game Dev is the blue collar of white collar?
I don't use React much but you are asking a question that was asked of Angular when react came a decade or so ago. Before that, people have always been asking "Why JQuery when you have angular etc"

It is just a matter of time before someone goes "Why HTMX/Alpine ? Now we have this <replace with the latest new shiny thing>"

Point is that the JS ecosystem is always coming up with new stuff. And there is a use case for all of them, React included.
"Semantic Index" sure is a better name than "Recall". Question is whether I can exfiltrate all my personal data in seconds?
I was naively hoping that with the M4 iPad the opposite of this would happen and they would let us unlock the power of this device so I could use it as my dev machine when I'm traveling.

Instead, no real improvements are coming to iPad OS and if you're not gaming or video editing, all you get to do is marveling at how powerful your YouTube player is in benchmarks.

Please Apple, let the Pro device finally be a Pro device and let us use virtualization.
They did say there was a windows client in the keynote.

You cannot show someone an image without them being easily able to copy it elsewhere.

I don’t see much benefit to e2ee for this, and use Telegram (which everybody in my social circles uses anyway). Any chat app will work, and many are e2ee.
There has never been a better time to move to Linux. Have you tried Omakub? Manjaro? Mint? Ubuntu 24? These are polished and complete alternatives and your favorite app probably has a Linux build already!
The 9918 was used in much more hardware than the TI-99/4(a), and Yamaha produced a more capable version:

"The TMS9918 and its variants were used in the ColecoVision, CreatiVision, Memotech MTX, MSX, NABU Personal Computer, SG-1000/SC-3000, Spectravideo SV-318, SV-328, Sord M5, Tatung Einstein, TI-99/4, Casio PV-2000, Coleco Adam, Hanimex Pencil II, and Tomy Tutor...

"Texas Instruments' TMS9918A was succeeded by Yamaha's V9938, which added additional bitmap modes, more colorful sprites, a vertical full-screen scroll register, vertical and horizontal offset registers, a hardware blitter and a customizable palette."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMS9918

MAME also implements the 9918 in software, as many of its emulation targets bundled it as a component (mostly video arcade games).

Because it's already built into the devices I use
Agreed! And the UI seemed pretty focused on not really clarifying too much; I think they just mentioned AI a lot since it was WWDC.
Yet another fun game that will die because it tried to replicate the "one game a day" model for no reason. I like it, and want to play more. Why can't I? At the very least let me go back and retry the words that I missed? Not everything has to be Wordle.
Wow, a lot of Barney fans on here. :-)
"Acceptable ads" is such a crock. In terms of trust it's ublock or nothing.
They did a lot of work for this release, and the number of integrations is beyond what I expected. In a few years time you might not need to hold your phone at all and just get everything done with voice - kind of cool, actually.

Auto transcripts for calls (with permission) is another feature I really liked.

I was a little surprised to see/hear no mention of inaccuracies, but for ChatGPT they did show the "Check for important facts" notice.
Maybe I missed something, but I think you agree with the other person more than you think. The second to last paragraph in particular explains why.

"HOW CAN MORE THAN 100% OF A COMPANY'S SHARES BE SHORTED? Once the short seller borrows the shares from the lender and then sells them back into the market, the new owner of the shares is free to lend them out, just as the previous owner did, and have no idea they are on the other side of a short sale. Settlement time is two days after the transaction."
I was referring to the limitations of the feature which can only generate images in three pre-canned cartoony styles
I often was looking to see "do I have that in keychain" and ... I'd forget where to find it as it wasn't a dedicated app.
And put all the eggs into the same basket? No, thanks. I prefer to spread critical responsibilities among a small group of "little tech" companies that offer clear and concise data portability among them.
> Principal repayment is not an expense.

In the links I posted several comments above, you'll find that it is considered an expense for the purposes of personal savings.

I don't disagree with your definition, btw, it's just not the common one.
She was an awful CEO; she was basically a CFO hired to shepherd the company through the IPO (SPAC) process, but the years following were awful. I left right before the board fired her (along with many, many senior people) and hope the company is doing better without her there. Not surprised to see her failing upward.
The problem with these policies is that the people LEAST likely to quiet are also the most likely to comply with the shit policies, because they have no other option (or it's going to be the most difficult for them to find a different/better job)

Not sure if they teach second-order effects in those MBA-mills though.
Calling it Apple Intelligence seems a bit short sighted to me considering how quickly things are moving in this space.

There's a danger that before long, the stuff Apple will take ages to implement into their devices will seem dated compared to the state of the art less encumbered players will be rolling out.

I felt that a few times watching them demo image generation and contextual conversations.
really? what's the name?
Or pay them, for a deal that gives you access to a competitor's product.
Might sound like a technicality, but: iCloud Keychain can store the passphrase but can't store the key itself. You still need an encrypted private key on-disk to use this: https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/250572 .

1Password saves the key itself in the encrypted vault and implements an SSH agent that can then interact with OpenSSH etc. and provide key operations, like how a physical dongle would function.
This is definitely a factor. "You don't understand, we have a really high bar and we only hire the best people" is a bit of a meme in recruiting circles because you will never ever ever ever not hear it on a call.

I don't think we found it a barrier to getting adoption from companies though - perhaps because "we're a really advanced company using this state of the art YC-backed assessment" satisfies that psychological need? Unclear.
any improvements or comments are welcome :)
Personally I feel less and less comfortable giving OpenAI access to my private data tho, so I’m really happy there’s a divide. As you said, if you really just need ChatGPT for something you can open that app. But I’m happy the default isn’t to send all Apple users requests to OpenAI all the time.
It’s a little disappointing that even big companies like Apple jump on OpenAI instead of building their own thing. Diversity seems pretty important with AI.
I'll be trying this out, but moving me from Bitwarden will prove quite a feat - especially since it was the best option for me after trying over 10 password managers while I was still window shopping for one.
So "Great powers come with great privacy", but "some" tasks run on their "Private Cloud". That's very bold of them; I would argue that is worse than Recall; at least with Recall you can enable/disable the thing (for now) and you know it runs locally on the NPU only.

The hand wavy approach of "some" tasks running on the "private" cloud feel very "Trust me bro"; unless they have a global, verifiable checkbox that completely disables off-device capabilities this is a privacy disaster.
Even if the promise were made in good faith, I fear it may be hard to resist pressure from law enforcement etc.
it's fascinating to see this resurgence of people who now like copyright/IP law
Apple should allowed to block apps from third party app stores on devices they paid for.
True, but more on paper than in practice. The Senate, Governor General and the King all take a back seat and it is unclear what would happen if they actually exercised their formal rights. I suspect that the entire country would blink and go on as if nothing happened should King Charles ever attempt to withhold royal assent.
SponsorBlock generally works well for auto-skipping the baked-in ads, but of course only works on the website, not in the YT app.
I noticed a "Notes" section in password items. So, I guess in theory you could utilize those.

But my biggest one is wanting to store secure files. Think copies of a drivers license, signed documents or various certs and keys. That's not being covered here either for me sadly. It's not a super common situation for me so I can probably find an alternative app for that purpose.

Edit: Also for notes, I'd just password protect something in the Notes app. But that's just me.

For future reference, the ChatGPT’s mistake in the SQLAlchemy model:

id = Column(String, primary_key=True, default=str(uuid.uuid4()), unique=True, nullable=False)

Can be fixed by making the default a function:

id = Column(String, primary_key=True, default=lambda: str(uuid.uuid4()), unique=True, nullable=False)

Or, if you choose to use native UUID types in Python and SQL:

id = Column(Uuid, primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4, unique=True, nullable=False)
Nope, don't do that. Well, maybe do it, it won't hurt.

But what you should be doing if you have some little fella hanging around is Print. Your. Photos.
And put them in a nice album, and let them grab it,touch it, look at the photos, together or alone. Having a physical copy of your smartphone 's photos is just... different
it will defer to the server a _lot_, if you just consider the capability they can fit on that phone
I love FreeBSD and in a different world really it should occupy the place Linux does.

But the reality is it’s a Linux world and now Linux has systemd which makes switching to anything else not an option for me.

You’d have to pry systemd from my cold, dead hands.
Most of Apple's announcements today featured AI but the term wasn't explicitly mentioned. I think the last portion of the keynote that focused on AI was merely for investors tbh
Off-topic comment to urge any LastPass users before Sept 16 2022 to please look into parent post's link. LastPass said accounts deleted before June 21 2022 were not affected if that's still up to date.

If I understand:

Attackers got access to LastPass's account data backups directly and in bulk. 2FA doesn't help here.

While LastPass since increased their password rounds for new accounts to 100k+, many users especially long-time users had them set well below and never updated. Reports of 5000 rounds, 500 rounds, ... even 1 round.

URLs were not encrypted. If you had sensitive URLs, I think you have to treat them as compromised. If you had crypto exchange logins or high-value URLs, I'd imagine you might attract extra attention.

Regarding OpenAI, has Apple in its history ever relied so heavily on a 3rd party for software features?

(TSMC for hardware, but it seems very un-Apple to be so dependent upon someone else for software capabilities like OpenAI)
If this supports OTP, and ideally profiles, I'd likely cancel my 1Password subscription. I've been waiting for Apple to release something like this for a long time and surprised it took them this long.
Getting an HTTP server to work with the diversity of HTTP clients in the world that Netflix supports is not going to be fun, and NGINX is right there.

As I understand it, they've made some changes to NGINX, but I don't think they've made a lot, and I don't think anything where the structure of NGINX was not conducive to it or limiting.

I'm not one to shy away from building a custom design, but it's a lot easier when you control the clients, and Netflix has to work with everything from browsers to weird SDKs in TVs.

Netflix OCA performance seems mostly bottlenecked on I/O/memory bandwidth (and cpu overhead for pacing?) and any sensible HTTP server for static files isn't going to use a lot of memory bandwidth processing inbound requests and calling sendfile on static files. So why spend the limited time of a small team to build something that's not going to make a big difference.

I'm using KeepassXC for similar reasons although there's no official Android port last I checked.
It only loads the video and related information, if that's what you mean.
They may be using google analytics, for example.
Do you know what "most popular" means?
But Apple's integration means you can use it and not care if it is AI or not. It'll just become part of using iOS (let's face it, that's were the majority of Apple's users will be). From creating a new "genmoji" to any of the other examples of allowing people to do this without know WTF huggingface or the other equally ridiculously named products are. They don't need accounts. They just type a message and decide to put in a new image.

Of course we've only seen examples from an overly produced hype/propaganda video, but it looks to me of yet another example of Apple taking products and making them usable to the masses
Sounds cool but that vacation itinerary isn't as meaningful to your 7 year old as it is to you. Also sounds like a nightmare to manage and a liability when Google decides that 7 year olds can't have accounts so it's deleted (PayPal blocked my account after 15 years because they found out I opened it when I was a teenager)

If you want to preserve documents, keep them in your own drive/cloud and share the folder once they're capable.

Also once they use/need an email, they probably don't need one created by mom 12 years ago already filled with junk that isn't theirs — just my opinion though.
I love these sort of paradoxes in physics: multiple models, multiple interpretations, multiple meanings and realities, out of seemingly the same experiments and measurements, sometimes even the exact same mathematical formulas

Sometimes it can definitely be seen as a bit ridiculous, like if maybe a formula is taken to mean something slightly different, it could mean the whole Universe is upside down!

However, sometimes creating alternative models, even if weird when taken at face value, can actually make a difference in making better predictions and even finding new practical applications

In the end, all of our models are made up by us
If you get baked-in ads, it's because of the editor of the video you're watching, not YouTube.
They have literally revamped Siri, and based it on an LLM that runs on-device, and can use your personal context, plus can escalate to a private cloud model when it deems “weak” for the task at hand.

How the hell is it underwhelming?
So the future of computing really is AI agents doing everything:

- siri text chat now on the lock screen

- incoming a billion developer app functions/APIs

- better notifications

- can make network requests

Why even open any other app?
Text as a Siri interface has been available for a while now. Long-press the sleep/wake button to raise the prompt.
