Absolutely nothing at all interesting at the Apple Worldwide Developer
Conference this year - no new / updated hardware, just pointless
tweaking of the awful Liquid Glass garbage and more promises about
useless gimmicky AI "features". :-(
And since No News Is Good News, this is all fine. Apple is wisely allowing
others to dump hundreds of billions (trillions?) of dollars into the "AI"
black hole, with nothing in return.
Apple *is* stupidly plowing billions of dollars into useless AI
gimmickry ... but has very little actual product to show for it, and
now also pays others, including Google, a lot of money to sub-license
their useless AI gimmickry instead.
Actually Apple is getting Google's AI stuff for free. Google pays Apple $20
billion a year to make Google Search the default on Apple everything. Apple is
paying Google $1 billion a year for Google's AI stuff.
The other $19 billion from Google is more than enough to cover Apple's AI
research. Assuming they are doing any at all.
