They aren't wrong, Apple advertised the 16 Pro with a feature that never materialised.

Apple deserves to be ridiculed for this, of course. However, at least for now, Apple is so irrelevant to the category that it is a waste of money to make fun of Apple about this.
A) that’s not something I would do on my phone.
B) I wasn’t speaking about myself particularly but rather of the majority of users.
C) If I ever had a meeting that was 2 hours long, I wouldn’t trust an AI not to miss important details that might not seem obviously important to an AI. Thankfully my clients know better than bringing me into two hour long meetings haha
I use AI extensively but never in ways that require trusting it not to make a mistake. I may use it to write something short, or a section of something longer, troubleshooting etc. but handing it a document and just trusting that it will spit back the right information is just wild to me.
Matter of fact just a couple of days ago I had a bunch of studies to read and I tried pretty much what you suggested because I wanted to save some time. ChatGPT literally made up the contents of one of the PDFs on the spot because it couldn’t read it or something. I realized because it was giving it a different title than what I knew the study had, but what if I had just trusted it blindly?
It’s getting tiring hearing the same old speech… Please, I buy Apple devices for their hardware and software quality (something Google can’t brag about). I don’t care if they have AI or not. I’m fine with the quality of their hardware and the efficiency of their software ecosystem. That’s it.
One might argue that Apple's overall business performance and especially profits very clearly takes the piss out of (your term) Samsung and Google...
Nah. They just said the 16s would cope with AI. They did not say what AI would do...
Yes, but this is Apple we’re talking about, not just any company. They set the bar high, made big promises, and still failed to deliver. If anyone deserves to be called out for overhyping and underdelivering, it’s them
CEOs of trillion dollar companies need to be CEOs, not "product guys."
What? What’s that even supposed to mean? A CEO of Apple MUST be a product oriented person. You can only milk a cow for that long…

2 years? Siris was OK before Apple bought it. It has been the laughingstock of what was called "Digital assistants" and now is called AI for so long now. It is good for setting timers and anything else its iffy at best. 8 out 10 times it will call the right person when I ask it too in a VERY clear and pronounced way.
