"Apple has demonstrated how meaningful AI interactions can be built into every corner of our digital life" Well not really. I haven't seen anything new here, unless you consider genmoji a killer app... The whole thing comes down to - your request may get sent to ChatGPT for advanced features. Better doesn't mean new.

If you didn’t see anything new in the announcement at all, maybe you didn’t actually see all the proposed features they are advertising? I’ve never seen a lot of stuff contained in one personal device or computer before. A single assistant that has access to finding connections throughout your life, emails, photos, etc.?

  Yes I did - but in 30 years attending and watching these I've learned a lot. As for Siri - been waiting for a decade for it to do something really useful - Let's hope this time it does.

  Good suggestion - I would recommend the same back.

Did you watch the WWDC keynote? There are a lot of legitimately exciting features. There's a level of integration with AI and your OS/apps that is (as far as I know) unprecedented. One thing I really want is for Siri to be able to control my house with Home Assistant with natural language, e.g. "turn off all of the lights outside except for the balcony". The updates to Siri seem like it _could_ make this possible. I would _love_ to be proven wrong, so please do show me alternatives.

  Yes - even attended. And I didn't say bad - just meh. Many promises have been made - let's see if they pan out. Many alternatives, Apple hasn't brought anything new to the table. Calculator is cool though...
