Can't imagine how this could be perceived as anything but retaliation for the EU daring to attempt to regulate Apple
Yeah exactly. Remember when they wanted to kill PWAs in Europe blaming the DMA? They had to revert course eventually due to backlash.
It's very easy for them to twist the history. Losing PWA would have really sucked. I use those quite extensively, even if they aren't perfect
Me too! I even develop some PWAs. It’s great for specialized stuff that doesn’t need to be on the AppStore.
Oh, I missed them having to backpedal on that! That's good news.
Nah, it makes sense. Apple really likes their proprietary walled garden, so the interoperability requirements trouble them deeply.
That was my first thought.
Funny how companies believe they are punishing you by withholding AI crap nobody wants.
Data privacy AND not having to deal with more bullshit AI? Oh my, how will we ever cope with this... /s
wasn’t the main point of apples ai that it runs on device? asking explicitly every time it might need to send data anywhere else seems fine
Apple's may start being salty and blame everything on anti-trust from now on.
Why were your beans cold this morning? EU's DMA.
Why did you get delayed to your event? EU's DMA.
Why did it rain on the one day you were planning to take a trip? EU's DMA, of course.
sounds like EU really dodged that bullet. Good on them.
Y'all just becoming luddites afraid of big scary tech. Oh no, the big bad siri 2 is going to hurt me!!!
Why are you using Lemmy then? Go back to reddit if you aren't scared of them
Don't interact with these people. He's clearly a moron, purposefully using provocative slurs
I didn’t realize Lemmy was so restrictive. 🙄
What are you going on about?
That’s what they said about bitcoin, and there’s still nothing useful at any kind of scale outside of scams.
Look into what the luddites actually where, instead of repeating propaganda
Lololol not sure what you even think it's going to change.
Who cares.
If Apple don't want to compete fair in the market, then others will.
And no iPhone user will miss an AI feature. Most of them don't even understand how to use 80% of the phones features anyway.
then others will
Unfortunately, I don't think the others want to compete fair either. It's a big race to shove garbage to consumers.
Well, if it's illegal to do otherwise, some must do it, because the money involved are big.
I cant wait for all the small smartphone manufacturers and os developers to come up with their solutions.
Dumb phones on the rise.
At least it opens up for challenge.
I mean, can we get this in the US also?? Nobody wants this shit.
Oh yes, won’t miss that.
And nothing of value was lost...
Im in the eu and Im fucking devastated.
Why. This is good
I think they are being sarcastic without putting /s
This. I never realize how autistic people on the internet are
I think specifically with sarcasm it's an American issue. It's natural to us EU people, we can usually just detect it by instinct.
I've dealt with US people who just fail to detect it both on the phone and face to face. So no chance with text...
Apple is stepping on its own tail. The correct way to implement such features is to provide API to integrate any AI with their device, not only ChatGPT. And as an example, they should provide their own completely optional app for this, which could be downloaded from the App Store. This app should not be part of iOS at all. So EU regulators cannot do anything with it or it will be harder for them to figure out ways to restrict it. And users will worry less about privacy.
It probably doesn't need to be an optional app if they're giving you the ability to use any model you want at the OS level integration.
When you're using the device for the first time show a screen and let them choose AI / provide their own local model.
I wonder how listing things alphabetical would go given apple would keep them near the top.
Insert bored Jeremy Clarkson meme
Regulation works.
Lol, lmao even
Google AI is already dominant there.
