Apple’s AI isn’t a letdown. AI is the letdown

Apple has been getting hammered in tech and financial media for its uncharacteristically messy foray into artificial intelligence. After a June event heralding a new AI-powered Siri, the company has delayed its release indefinitely. The AI features Apple has rolled out, including text message summaries, are comically unhelpful.

OH: You thought you were going to learn about artificial intelligence, but instead you are learning all about human stupidity.

me: i’ve single-handedly written software used by tens of millions of people, you can see it right over at github.com/april

prospective employers: sorry, but unfortunately you did poorly in a high-stress 40-minute coding exercise, writing code with no time to think about how to solve a problem you’ve never seen before, in a terrible dev environment, while someone stares at you the whole time

Seeing the Pasadena convention center where I’ve been a few times for SCaLE being used as a shelter is surreal.

“Why worry about a thing that isn’t going to happen?”

Perfect ending quote tbh
