S_Paluch@daringfireball Forget about the EU and their dismantling of the App Store. This kind of disruptive innovation is poised to dismantle the whole idea of “there’s an app for that” Why do I need to interact with the AirBnb app or Uber app when I will be able to ask my “executive assistant” to book either of these things for me.

Sean@daringfireball Pretty epic miss for Apple that it was OpenAI and not Apple that demoed next-gen Siri, next-gen Mac-based AI, and next-gen iPad-based tutoring.

@lukestevens Apple don’t make the cellular chips or the displays on their phones. They’re happy to outsource when necessary.

Sean@daringfireball I watched the full keynote and it’s amazing. It’s the opposite of a Google AI keynote as you know these are real world features.
Raouf Dool@daringfireball your credulousness is charming, bud
