Devindra has been writing about the way technology intersects with our lives for nearly 20 years. He started the Amherst Student's first technology column, worked in IT support for many (many) years, and eventually moved to Brooklyn to cover New York's tech scene in 2009.

We're gearing up to cover Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference next week! In this episode, Cherlynn and Devindra dive into everything they expect at WWDC: Tons of AI announcements; more on iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS 15; and hopefully some improvements for Vision Pro and visionOS.

With Google, it still felt a little bit like a mix of what we saw with the duplex announcement years ago with the restaurant reservation, AI slash, whatever you would want to call that. But Apple. Actually coming out and using and uttering the word AI would be a big deal.

And they don't like normally have to build products around, Hey, we got to release a new iPhone next year. Or a new iPad in a couple of years or something. So it seems like that team never fully gelled within Apple. And then most recently, like some of Apple's other executives, like when ChatGPT launched, got really enamored with that stuff and was like, Oh crap, we got to be doing this.

Like you said, like it's only two years of Gen AI has been that much of a hype term. For Apple, this is they haven't waited five years before jumping in. Wow. Like that's,part of the problem is that there's also been a lot of reporting, like Google has been working at this stuff for a long time. I think that a lot of these voice based assistants are dumb in some way or another, like with my Google ones, they're like so bad at responding to me from the correct device. And that might be because I have so many Google devices, but also like Siri is good at working with third party apps that you can morph, iOS has made it so much easier.

And I think that's like definitely interesting and something that we've all been hoping some sort of desktop software comes to tablets, whether on the Android or Apple side. We've been hoping for that forever, but. I don't know at this point that as a user I have any requests other than obviously better understanding of dictation in messages sometimes.Better Siri which by the way I just said that and none of my devices responded and I thought that was smart.
