Apple doesn’t report benchmarks for their AIs, reporting on an ill-documented head-to-head evaluation But even by their standards, Apple’s latest on device models are mostly worse than the open Gemma 3-4B from Google or Qwen 3-4B And their server LLM is similar to Llama 4 Scout https://x.com/emollick/status/1932420903515590997

The new ChatGPT Advanced Voice Mode is super interesting – lots of deliberate use of disfluencies (nervous laughs, ums & ahs) and vocal changes make it feel much more human than the previous version Really shows the possibilities from multimodal voice vs most AI’s text-to-speech”” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1931557886947205629

Apple’s “spatial scenes” remind me of Facebook 3d photos from 2018. Take any photo and use AI to give it real depth and parallax.

I am a graphics programmer, and here’s my feedback on Apple’s Liquid Glass beta. The idea is cool, but it’s difficult to work with from a UX perspective.
