I'm a fan of that phrasing usually but that's not a good comparison in this case I feel. Agents are perfectly fine to use existing REST APIs. I have yet to see the big selling point for MCP as they are usually a very thin layer on

That's just the "original" they mentioned here without a prompt ( https://envs.net/~volpe/projects/ai-design.html ) but these ofen are easily identified as AI generated. I don't think it's t

It would've been very funny if the left side is an actual screenshot of a system app from Tahoe.

There's this standard that is being worked on by the people working on the Passwords app at Apple (They are active on Mastodon, and often talking about that) which will probably be helpful for this feature too: https://www.w

How much of that do you think is rose tinted glasses and nostalgia? On paper that doesn't sound too different than Apple Music Radio for example where there's radio shows with local DJs or hosts that talk, play music and have cura

Depends on your definition of successful. If the goal was to take down the website that didn't work as it was back online hours after and is online to this day even if the organization behind it probably changed.
