Watch it only be supported on the 17 Pro/pro max because those are the only models with 12 gigs of RAM. ….

That implies it would use an on-device LLM which is a lot better than requiring data centers. To me that’s a good thing. I don’t have any interest or desire in using any AI products so I’m fine keeping my older iPhone. I’m not alone here either.

Well I use googles Gemini so integrating it into Siri will finally make Siri more useful. Great video as usual Bridget, will be with you (in spirit) on Monday as I’m across the pond.

Bro there not going to announce glasses, that’s going to be later and we would have already heard rumors by now, plus the glasses would take away from the excitement around the new Siri

We don’t want AI
The iPhone just as it is now is fine
Some of us have Actual Intelligence
And we don’t need some goofball draining the rivers to be writing our emails or generating images or emojis

I’m blind, and I love my Apple products because they’re powerful (and also Apple is extremely dedicated to ensuring that their products are “usable for the blind” at the core of the software), but I’m seriously considering getting a pair of smart glasses from Meta, Google, or a smaller company/charity called Agiga. I’d be very interested in purchasing a pair of smart glasses from Apple, especially since they would more easily integrate into the ecosystem I’m already comfortable with. If you do this right, you have a potential customer in me, Apple. And the rest of the blind community; we do have money, lol.

Isn’t it just a collection of the same, futile expectation that repeats every year? It’s probably best not to have high expectations.

I don’t mean to brag but I’m typing this comment on my iPhone 16 pro max. It was built from the ground up for Apple Intelligence and Siri 2.0 two years ago with iOS 18. And yet still waiting for Apple Intelligence and Siri 2.0….

I tried to use visual intelligence once and the experience was so bad I’ve never used it since. It’s a terrible experience and just a re-skinned Google reverse image search which has been around for at least a decade

I’m still holding out for the Apple Ring !!! I love my watch but I would love to use a regular analog watch and still have some smart capabilities from a ring.

Hopefully they will improve Apple intelligence but keep it light unlike copilot that is everywhere, even in the paint app

iOS 27 and Apple Intelligence will only be supported on 17pro-Air series devices. iPhone 17 and 16 Pro model owners are about to get the shaft!

Hmm… I had t considered Tim going out with a bang, but he could do a memorable “one more thing…” and it’d be remembered. What’s his passion? Watch? Glasses? Health?
Honestly, I’m ready to hear about something from Apple that isn’t prefaced with “it won’t change much” or “it’ll look the same” etc. would it be too much to have a Siri FINALLY?!

I… I just don’t get it anymore. I wish Apple good luck finding people who do. Wish they’d wish me the same but hey, what can i say.
