My feature request: A scrolling dock

I don't want the dock to get smaller when I minimize windows. I want it be horizontally scrollable and stay the same size.

Also for consistency they should put widgets in Launchpad instead of the Desktop. Might give people more of a reason to use Launchpad. I don't use the Desktop or Launchpad so it doesn't really matter to me much either way, but it does seem inconsistent.
 
AI-assisted writing in Pages sounds interesting: now instead of spending all of 5 seconds thinking of what to write in MacRumors comments or tweeting every random thought in my head on social media, I can get SiriGPT to do it for me. 🤪

But AI code writing in Xcode? As if Xcode doesn't run slow enough on my old iMac even without an AI making Clippy-esque suggestions every so often. 😭
OMG. When you said Clippy-esque I was appalled at the idea that it literally could be Clippy-esque, which would be horrendous.
 
I know it's a lot to ask for, something Apple engineers must have scratched their heads over for years now, but with the rise of A.I., they could finally find a solution to a problem that has plagued macOS for years...

A way to keep emails unread until you mark them as read in Apple Mail.

SiriGPT? All your comments will be “oh no, something went wrong. One second… Please try again later.”
 
If it's among the names they've already trademarked, it has to be either Redwood, Mammoth, or Sequoia (in that order). More than likely the first two, since Sequoia is tough to spell for most. Redwood if they feel it's a 'big, but not the biggest' release. Mammoth if it's truly groundbreaking.

A small thing but I'd love a calculator that could convert currency
It would have to be converted from completely offline app to having to contact some api somewhere to get current exchange rates. But yeah, would be cool. Though, to be honest, I have seen so many people who would rather type into Google whatever they need to calculate than to open calculator on their devices

To do that you need to know the current exchange rates. This is an example of what Siri can't do without being more sophisticated when drawing upon more data then some online explanation instead of the answer you want. At best Siri is like referencing a dictionary, encyclopedia, or basic calculator, not exact numerical data/stats from the web. Would be a nice goal to attain when Siri is able to understand longer text.

You mean at least as cool as Window's or Linux's calculators are?
