Was Apple's Big Event a Mission Impossible?


Listen Later

Apple's Sept 12 event had a Mission: Impossible theme w/ cool #healthtech (Slip/Fall detection, FDA-approved ECG) and improved specs (A10 bionic, 7nm, IP68). But it felt like a really, really polite political rally w/ lots of applause but little action. Here's our take on the Good (solid incremental improvements & healthcare focus), the Bad (not much breakthrough or disruptive), and the Who Really Cares About the Color aspect of the event. Plus our Fast Five: EU's fine fine strategy for combating terrorist propaganda; AI's role in transforming organ donations; The risk of cameras invading AirBnB; The FCC's "let's just slow things down" move with the T-Mobile/Sprint merger; and Facebook's Rosetta - extracting text from images! Our Tech Bites this week: Have Crypto Tourists (smaller, retail investors) decided to pack up and go home? After a 70% market fall in crypto currency, it sure feels like it. Plus our humorous attempt to guess what Samsung, Huawei & others will do to counter Apple's attempt to polish its products up a bit.
