In season three, episode 5 of Press Pause, we look at the broken state of productivity systems and why I am sticking with Apple Notes over Obsidian. The AI wars are heating up again as we discuss the performance of Claude 4.6 against Google's Gemini 3.1 Pro.
We also break down the latest Apple rumors from Mark Gurman regarding the massive Siri delay. It looks like those highly anticipated features might be pushed back to iOS 26.5 or even iOS 27, proving once again that the tech rumor mill often ruins the fun.
Managing content across YouTube, a podcast, a newsletter, Threads, X, and TikTok is overwhelming. I talk about why having files on your hard drive sounds great in theory, but apps with good user interfaces usually win out for most people.
Notion gets a lot of complaints because of its subscription model, but its AI implementation is currently the most useful one I have tested. We also touch on the recent AI summit and why we need more likable people in charge of these tools.
