    Plot twist: your precious apple is so behind in the AI race, they won’t have any choice but to integrate ChatGPT and Gemini into the next gen iPhones

    5:25 “No Ads” killed the newspapers, you should have heard the newspaper people whine and moan 20 years ago about the inevitable. Do you really want to replicate their mistakes?

    I predict Siri is still going to suck after the next iOS update

    I used enjoy watching Hulk Hogan back when he was in the yellow shorts. Ultimate Warrior, The Undertaker, Million Dollar Man, Sgt Slaughter, Jake The Snake. Never really the same since so I don’t know where they go from here. No hang on a minute, that was WWF, not WWDC … what was the question again?

    If we get an ai Siri which is actually good and put it on the Apple Watch, it will make all other ai gadgets like the rabbit ai and the AI Pin obsolete.

    I think Siri will have a voice that is friendly, yet professional like the vision of Apple’s ideal Apple Store employee.

    As soon as I heard of open AI I knew apple would want to either buy them or commingle with them somehow

    I would like to see an improvement on dictation, I would like to see Siri be able to convert and go back and help correct misunderstood words. I guess she just doesn’t get my southern accent. It would certainly be a help for us blind folks.

    Is this the update when XR is no longer supported? May have to finally jump into the upgrade cycle.

    To your comment about the Safari feature to remove a part of a webpage. Arc browser already has the Zap feature that can remove any part of a webpage. I’m doing it already to remove YT Shorts from my feed as well as the For Me tab on Twitter.

There is no such thing as the perfect pitch. But you can get close by implementing a few research-backed methods to your delivery, deck, and message.

In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Dr. Eike Gerhardt, who has aPhD in pitching and spent nearly a decade studying the science of startup pitching before starting Autopoiesis Sciences. And he’s joined by Demetri Maxim, co-founder and CEO of Nephrogen, who came in second at TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 2025.

Together, they break down Demetri’s actual Startup Battlefield pitch to unpack what worked, what could be improved, and what research tells us about how investors respond to founders. Eike explains why credibility signals matter, how technical founders can simplify without oversimplifying, and why Q&A should be treated as a second pitch. Demetri shares how he learned to explain complex biotech to generalist investors, how redesigning his deck changed his confidence onstage, and what he would do differently today.
They also explore how body language and authenticity affect a pitch, how investor questions can reveal bias, and how founders can use AI to prepare for difficult Q&A.
