Have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by what Apple showed today with all this Personal AI stuff. And it proves that the real power of consumer AI will be in the hands of the platform owners where you have most of your digital life in already (Apple or Google for messaging, mail, photos, apps; Microsoft for work and/or life). The way Siri can now perform actions based on context from emails and messages like settin…

"brother didn’t bother to check the flight code I sent him via message when he asks me when I’m landing for pickup"

Yeah but what about people going to the wrong airport, or getting scammed by taking fake information uncritically? "Well it worked for me and anyway AI will get better.". Amen.

Regarding OpenAI, has Apple in its history ever relied so heavily on a 3rd party for software features? (TSMC for hardware, but it seems very un-Apple to be so dependent upon someone else for software capabilities like OpenAI)

Google Maps in the early days of iOS?

Anyway it seems like a small subset of Siri queries utilize ChatGPT, the vast majority of functionality is performed either locally or with Apple's cloud apparently.

They were also pretty explicit about planning to support other backend AI providers in the future.

"Semantic Index" sure is a better name than "Recall". Question is whether I can exfiltrate all my personal data in seconds?

I mean I can already search my photos for “dog” or “burger” or words in text on photos. Adding an LLM to chat about it is just a new interface is it not?

I think the important thing is that the semantic index tracks all you do through all your apps.

Can someone explain why the AAPL share drops 1% during the event. Did the market expect more? If so, what?

I mean how they'll monetise it?

% share with OpenAI?

Plus I’d now consider buying the new iPhone and wasn’t planning on a specific update from a 13 given the hardware is still fine

That's just the enterprise guarantee. The same applies to Azure OpenAI services and the API services provided by OpenAI directly.

Wouldn't this reduce sales for Grammerly? If Apple packs the same feature for every application in iOS, it is kinda cool. Private Cloud - Isn't this what Amazon did with their tablet - Fire? What is the difference with Apple Private Cloud?

> Sherlocked as a term

> The phenomenon of Apple releasing a feature that supplants or obviates third-party software is so well known that being Sherlocked has become an accepted term used within the Mac and iOS developer community.[2][3][4]

It's all in the "private cloud". "Trust me bro", it's like totally private, only us and a handful of governments can read it.

Yeah. It's going to be great. Selected experts are saying so.
