Making voicemail cool again.
#wwdcMaking voice messages cool for old people.
#wwdcNamedrop is yet another nice UX touch.
#wwdcNice updates for autocorrect, too. I have to try it to fully believe that it works though.
#wwdcWidgets for macOS, the Return.
#WWDCAdaptive Audio. Can I force our kids via FaceTime to use that at home? 😆
In iA lingo, video conferencing updates are "capulavo" (masterwork)
#wwdcCarPlay joining session: 👌
Not an Apple Watch person, but this is was a great video.
#wwdc"Mental health is as important as physical health." True. I'm skeptical if more self analysis via screen time and tracking is the way to improve it. Happy to be proven wrong.
#wwdcApple Vision Pro looks cool as an object. Put on people still look prisoned. Seeing through is a clear improvement to the blinding goggles. Visual design in UI work is nice.
#wwdcThey call it "spacial computing"
#wwdc"You can see them and they can see you." It's a very cool looking object that makes you look very uncool.
So many good looking people in the coolest spaces. And behind the goggles they all look prisoned, fooled, trapped, stupid.
#wwdcDad looking at his kids with the goggles looks like a complete idiot.
#wwdcIt's already bad enough to look at your kids through your phone. This is just... nah. Gaming, maybe, but this is bullshit. And in spite of the high quality production and the futuristic product design, it looks old fashioned.
#wwdcDid they say "IT'S A PRISON OF ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES" WTF?!
#wwdcAnd it's not "spacial computing" it's "facial computing" Edit: No, it's "spatial computing" I misheard or someone misspoke during the presentation.
#wwdc"You brain is totally convinced that the sound is coming from the space around you"
#wwdc"Microsoft apps make full useage of the possibilities and sharp text rendering" 🤔
#wwdcIt might be very successful. It'll be great for porn.
#wwdc And it will be better than this:
It will be great on the plane for sure.
#wwdcI understand that they couldn't show the use case for erotic movies. 😂 But why didn't they show a single game?
#wwdcOh, $3,500.- that's a lot of money for on flight entertainment, retro games or for getting caught in an embarrassing situation.
I'll rewatch the Apple Vision intro tomorrow. Giving us the "One more thing" treatment was a bit too cheesy. First product shot was glorious. Then it dove down into black mirror and self parody territory. Das filming kids scene was a raw mistake. They caught up a bit explaining the tech, which they always do really well. Disney movie had a serious copy writing flaw saying "a prism of endless possibilities" is an involuntary but serious mistake when introducing such a device.
#wwdcI wasn't fully focused, between watching, posting, texts coming in, DMs and discussing in iA internal chat, but I think they completely ghosted "AI". That's remarkable. They mentioned "Machine Learning" once, during the iOS17 presentation (predictive text and autocorrect), but apart from that: Zero. Siri reacts to "Siri" instead of "Hey, Siri" but stays a major embarrassment. Traders are not optimistic, either.
