I recently finished “I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything” by @JoannaStern.
For anyone curious about AI and where it’s heading — especially in marketing, I’d highly recommend giving it a read.

The MacBook Pro PROLED XDR is the ultimate laptop. And once you’ve laid eyes on its screen, all others will look like 💩. My review: thenewthings.com/p/the-ultim…

I’ve been testing Apple’s new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display. The OLED screen is gorgeous. But Apple’s first touchscreen Mac has a dirty little secret: fingerprints. Everywhere. 🕵️♀️ So just how bad is the crime scene? I investigated.

easy answer here: get chromebooks out of schools
google says if you dont want AI in the classroom you wont get search either
earnest Q: highlighted quote seems carefully crafted to suggest there is a technical reason google could not turn off AI in search.
is there *any* truth to that?

@gmail Hope this finds you doing well. Any word when your Duo-optimized app will be ready? Thanks!
John Ternus answers investor question on where Apple is at with consumer AI agent capabilities:
“With Siri AI, we really have the kind of the Siri that we always wanted. It's primarily request based today, but as we talked about at WWDC, it's built on a modern orchestrated-driven architecture that gives us real room to expand its capabilities over time. As far as agentic capabilities, you know, we think these are promising tools for users. We just want to make sure that users are aware of what they're giving access to. We want to make sure this is done in a way that protects security and privacy. So, you know, we're pushing really hard on that with Siri AI, but we're also really encouraged the fact that Apple devices, we think, are the best places to use all forms of AI.”
The hottest tech product of the year? Wired headphones! 🎧
In today's newsletter: How Bose can't keep its new wired earbuds in stock, why cords are making a comeback and why I've never stopped loving them. thenewthings.com/p/the-headp…
Bose's president of consumer audio says it continues to restock the new wired USB-C earbuds. “We move mountains with our supply chain to get another 30,000 to 40,000 units and they last 24 hours.”
Haider said another batch should be available online today. bose.com/p/earbuds/bose-nois…

@JoannaStern was spending 80 to 90% of her time on @YouTube while her day job was a column.
Her calendar had already resigned. She just caught up.
What is your calendar saying about your real job?

wowza at this chart from @RolfeWinkler's story on apple's fraught relationship with flash-storage makers
For years, Apple bullied them into lower prices. Now, chip sellers are finally getting their revenge. on.wsj.com/4yLA2DK
For years, Apple insisted touchscreens didn’t belong on Macs. Now, it’s finally made one, and hasn’t really explained why it changed its mind. My first reactions to today’s new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display.

I got an early look at new MacBook Pro—and found out why Apple changed its mind about touch on the Mac. wired.com/story/the-inside-s…
MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display with touch capabilities—it just rolls off the tongue. Clearly, Apple going after real Pros here since most of touch cases involve interacting with 3D models. Starts at $2,899.
