Great Video Bridget! Soon you will be able to produce these videos straight from the keyboard with absolutely no time in front of the camera and you will be able to do all from your cell phone.

Apple is so behind in the AI race it’s sad to watch. They’re just like Microsoft that didn’t see the smartphone race coming so they were left in the dust. Apple is now getting a taste of that, they are gonna be left behind in the AI race because they were so focus on just selling phones and not looking forward.

Apple is using the right term! Machine Learning and AI are completely 2 different things. Giving that “wink 😉” thinking they are same thing shows how clueless CNET is ….

Artificial intelligence encompasses the idea of a machine that can mimic human intelligence, machine learning does not. Machine learning aims to teach a machine how to perform a specific task and provide accurate results by identifying patterns.

The reading of products labels will not just help people with disabilities. Just imagine if it could translate products in another language. It would make traveling overseas much easier.

It’s easy to hate on Apple. I do it myself often. But I admit that Apple and Accessibility have been paired for as long as I remember – way back to the original iMac. I applaud them for always being so far ahead of anyone else when it comes to accessibility. Kudos to Apple, and also to Bridget for always being so friggin’ adorable!

I’m legally blind, and the inclusion of accessibility features as a core part of their products is the sole reason I exclusively use their products. They are the only technology company that doesn’t make me feel like an afterthought.

Sometimes they do something good and help to improve people’s lives.
Other times they want to show off how good they are at greenwashing and design their products to be very hard if not impossible to repair.

I’ll admit, I’ll miss the old school generic MC Hawkins voice when it’s gone—it’s part of what made Stephen Hawkins such a distinctive stand out celeb!—but that’s just because it’s what I’m used to I guess; no doubt this tech will be fantastic for so many. And I don’t mean to be disrespectful in my remarks: the strange thing is, there’s something most telling about the choice of words, rather than the sound of them, that makes you know that the person inside is really talking. Christopher Reeve, again, is another personal hero of mine that also used the classic MC Hawkins voice. But regardless, he was still always the guy that said “I like pink very much Lois” as Superman, and clumsily bumped into doors and pushed up his glasses so he could see properly as Clarke Kent. Ironically, even though he will always be my Superman, he became a real Superman after the accident—the sound of his voice was actually the least important component of him being “Still Me”. Whilst continued investment in scientific research is paramount for disability, the acceptance of disability/being different is really for people to bridge the gap on mass via perception and understanding, not for machines to try to “make normal”. At least that’s my opinion anyway. But don’t get me wrong: this is fantastic for a great many people. The scariest thing about AI to me is—when it gets more advanced (so by next week then…)—it will be able to make you fall in love with a person simply by working out their language patterns and your desires; after which adding the voice on top then just becomes the final deception. There was an episode of The Outer Limits (90s version) where Mark Hamill (AKA Luke Skywalker) fell foul to this and was manipulated by the machine he created, to kill the one he loved, even though he though the was using the machine to save her instead!
