Weeknotes #10 (January 11, 2025)
Posted on:
Things I found, read, did, and produced this past week.
Things I consumed
- Xe Iaso wrote a rather scathing but honest review of the current state of Apple Intelligence: They squandered the holy grail. I fully stand by their take and I would love to see how Apple themselves are reacting to the initial wave of Apple Intelligence cause for now it is extremely lackluster and isn't really bringing anything new to the table that other companies already have apps for on iOS & macOS.
- Dell decided to can their brands for computers (XPS, Inspiron, Lattitude, etc) and go for a more streamlined Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max scheme, but to append a subtier of basic, plus, and premium I feel is going to muddy the waters.
- In another round of products that don't need GenAI in them, LG and Samsung 2025 TVs will have Microsoft Copilot.
