Who wants fluent conversations with AI to get help for realtime translations or location based information (e.g. when traveling)?
Who wants to delegate tasks to AI so it can help work with everyday productivity tools like calendar, emails, etc.
I understand that some of the stuff is not there yet. But dismissing an emerging technology as useless baby stuff? Reminds me of what people were saying of web, web 2.0, etc.
My productivity has taken giant leaps since two years, probably because I'm willing to regularly invest some time into understanding & exploring which workflows can be optimised. It might actually not be trivial, and even some AI companies are not able to showcase their tech in realistic problem solving scenarios. But it's there.
Apple is just really really bad at this atm. Their leadership has transformed the company into a mindset of mirco-optimisations, no more taking risks etc.
It was Cursor six months ago, VC with Copilot three months ago, and currently it's Windsurf / Cursor. Copilot is lagging with features, it used to be Chat & Compose, now it's Agents and MCP stuff that's missing. But once it's in there, it just seems more robust and better integrated with everything imo.
It would have been great if they had disclosed which products.
I've been building tons of projects with AI lately, and while this is a massive productivity boost, the code itself doesn't scale.
The acceleration when you start with zero is massive, but with a growing code base, AI hits a wall at some point.
You better understand what you've built going from there.
Yes, please. But you know, these days, everyone is doing their own research, and think they nailed it. But it's often sloppy research, unfunded arguments, etc.
Just looking at the map in this article, and whatever source this comes from (some people don't seem to bother sharing sources) - it seems not accurate. (e.g. why is Greenland a different color than Denmark...)
Couldn’t agree more. Great write-up!
