When the AI techbros are finally hauled up on charges and asked if they are guilty, their only options for reply should be "yes" or "maybe later".

@nicoreese Yes, beautiful! 😍

I wish the same could be said of the new keyboard “design,” though 🙈

@davemark How strange! Very odd production values as you say. Right from the opening shot, which is a complete nothing — and wonky! — shot. Once it “starts” around 4 mins in, you think “ah here comes some production value” but it immediately vanishes again. I scrubbed through the rest and found it very bizarre. The only reason I can think of for posting it is that it doesn’t show up in the “Videos” tab for the channel, only in the “Live” tab. But it feels like it was made public by mistake!
Looking forward to seeing what experiences this kind of tech will bring!

Attached: 1 video visionOS 26 brings supports for sharing spatial SharePlay experiences with people you're nearby with. Even better, you can use FaceTime to add remote participants who appear with their spatial Persona! It has been an absolute thrill to work on the team bringing this feature to life. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/groupactivities/configure-your-app-for-sharing-with-people-nearby #visionOS #wwdc25 #SharePlay

@jimmylittle Good points re Apple Games, there are a lot of opportunities there. I just hope there’s more going on with larger developers behind the scenes to get them to develop for Apple’s non-mobile platforms/OSs as well.
@Sumocat Ah good catch! I had the whole “Apple Arcade” thing in my head 🙂
@stephenrobles Very happy for you Stephen. Thanks for sharing those words. You don’t know me (and I only found you relatively recently) but your enthusiasm and positive outlook is always great to see, and I’m so happy you had such an awesome first WWDC! Keep rocking 🤘
@marioguzman An awful lot of fuss about the first dev beta. Which in many places is great. But yes, in a whole bunch of places they’ll have to dial it back. I’m glad they’ve gone a bit crazy … again, in the first. dev. beta.
