Can someone explain why the AAPL share drops 1% during the event. Did the market expect more? If so, what?
Apple has largely maxed-out on iPhone market share, so investors probably want to see things more like subscription services than can bring in $XX billions new revenue per quarter.

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…
Apple Intelligence stuff is going to be very big. iOS is clearly the right platform to marry great UX AI with. Latching LLMs onto Siri have allowed the Siri team to quickly atone for its sins. I think the private compute stuff to be really big. Beyond the obvious use the cloud servers for heavy computing type tasks, I suspect it means we're going to get our own private code interpreter (proper scripting on iOS) and t…
Are we sure there is a Siri team in Apple? What have they been doing since 2012?
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?
Said this in the other thread, but I am really bothered that image generation is a thing but also that it got as much attention as it did. I am worried about the reliability, if you are relying on it giving important information without checking the source (like a flight) than that could lead to some bad situations. That being said, the polish and actual usefulness of these features is really interesting. It may not…
I bet that’s going to be the case. I think they added the servers as a stop-gap out of necessity, but what they see as the ideal situation is the time when they can turn those off because all devices they sell have been able to run everything locally for X amount of time.
It's either "Apple Intelligence" or "Generative Intelligence", not "Artificial Intelligence" and "Generative Models"... so silly to brand common ideas with a small twist. Basically all your information is sucked into a semantic system, and your apps are accessible to a LLM. All with closed models and trusted auditors. Also funny how they pretend it's a great breakthrough when Siri was stupid-Siri for so many years an…
Would you rather they have jumped onto AI early and LLM-ified Siri years ago?
Earlier quoted context omitted.

They did a lot of work for this release, and the number of integrations is beyond what I expected. In a few years time you might not need to hold your phone at all and just get everything done with voice - kind of cool, actually. Auto transcripts for calls (with permission) is another feature I really liked. I was a little surprised to see/hear no mention of inaccuracies, but for ChatGPT they did show the "Check for…
