Apple’s WWDC was a letdown. Justin sees Apple’s lack of AI innovation as a sign that they’re out of ideas. Frank’s not so sure. Maybe Apple’s caution stems from their belief it just isn’t intelligent enough for their products. Apple’s latest research suggests that today’s so-called “reasoning models” aren’t actually reasoning at all.
But Justin says their research was designed to fail. Denying models tools they’re capable of using and overwhelming their context window. He sees it less as scientific scepticism and more as corporate risk-aversion dressed up as research.
Apple wasn’t the only AI news to argue over this week. Sam Altman reckons the singularity is already underway, but promises it’ll be gentle. JD Vance appears to have been swayed on AI regulation by country music lobbyists. And Katie Price has signed over the rights to her younger self, with “Jordan” set to reappear as an AI avatar.
Topics:
WWDC: Is Apple playing AI too safe?
Is Apple wrong about AI and reasoning?
Is Altman right about the gentle singularity?
Did country music sway JD Vance on states' AI rights?
Is Katie Price now forever 21 with AI?
