    I really hope this goes somewhere.

    Not because I have any sympathy for the shareholders, mind you, fuck absolutely everyone involved. But I think it would be very funny to make Apple prove in court that AI is such dogshit it would’ve hurt the product more to implement it than not.

      Meanwhile in my company the leadership just thinks that we have a messaging problem after the new AI stuff we implemented made absolutely no difference in the sales numbers.

        I mean you do have a messaging problem. Your leadership has received bad messaging about what “AI” can do!

      The overpromising is criminal despite what the actual law says. Let the companies pushing AI beyond it‘s boundaries bleed.

      The bad thing is that Apple would introduce Recall for all its devices in the future, just to keep its shareholders happy.

        Local Snapshots have been available on OSX and MacOS since 2011 as long as you use Time Machine to make backups.

    Let’s face it the problem is mostly the people. If AI was as super duper as claimed to be it would be able to construct advertising that makes everyone go: 'Yeah, I have to have this, it’s useful, ethical, the bees knees really. ’

    The little advertising that still makes it over my thresholds is bad to abominable and of that what registers for me has the opposite affect it intents - I go out of my way to avoid it.

    Apple used rigged demos and made false claims about their own technology so outstanding that their own project managers were taken aback by how far behind the features actually were vs. what was pushed. There’s already informal documentaries on the massive internal disconnects within Apple that have lead to poor product testing and stagnation.

      There is some possibility that Tim Cook will resign or be fired.

        This can be a very good thing or a very bad thing.

    I hope this is the beginning of the end for AI.

    Instead of focusing on battery life, they focused on some dogshit hype product that no one uses and no body asked for.

      Why doesn’t Apple become a PBC?

        Yep I’m asleep without my Apple watch because the battery barely holds out a day and a half.

    All the shareholders of AI progressing companies should do this.

    I think Apple is going to have to release Safari for Windows and Linux to use new users as guinea pigs.

      I did use Safari for Windows back in the day. It was a product they indeed shipped.

        Was Safari for Windows a good, bad, or average product?
