I was thinking about why Apple didn’t get their AI right the first time. It’s a people problem— they don’t have enough developers good at it. This diagram breaks it down. $2AUD for a printable PDF and JPEGs you can use in a presentation.

Have any of you tried this accessibility feature on your iPhone? The results can be kinda amusing.

New video! With all this talk about AI photo editing on iPhones I decided to test another feature: Live Recognition, where you can point the camera at text and it reads it out live. Sometimes it works, other times not so much— it just makes up words when it can’t read them.

Apple makes mistakes and leaves rough edges in their products sometimes. Users aren’t always apologists for this — we notice little things that could use improvement. See if I found the same things that bug you about them.
Things Apple Needs to Work On — Uncaught Exception
Lots of people love Apple products, and we want to love them even more. Here’s a bunch of little annoyances I have noticed over the last few years that still haven’t been fixed. Have a look and see if...

Looks like omicron got very popular

State of SARS-CoV-2 evolution (Nov. 2024).
Evolutionary tree of SARS-CoV-2 variants in radial format, scaled to divergence (number of mutations). All Greek letters were assigned between May and November 2021, and none since "Omicron", which is enormously more diverse and divergent than any other named variant. Data from Nextstrain.org. Graph showing mutations in SARS-CoV-2 versus time. The virus is not running out of mutational space (if anything, the most recent variant clade was above the trend line). Data from Nextstrain.org. Graph showing mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein over time. The virus is not running out of mutational space. There was a very large jump in divergence with the arrival of BA.2.86, which evolved within a single host over a period of a year or so. Data from Nextstrain.org. Graph showing the consistent increase in immune escape of SARS-CoV-2 variants (versus BA.2) over time. Data from Nextstrain.org.

Maybe instead of comparing Musk’s gesture to people who also had their arm extended we could compare it to people who were genuinely intending to do the “heart goes out to you” gesture.

The New Mexico Department of Transportation released the winners of its annual "name a snowplow contest."
A map of New Mexico split up by DOT regions, with the names of snowplows in each region. District 1: Snow Bueno, Snow Way, José! District 2: Scoop Dogg, Chips & Que Snow. District 3: Alice Scooper, Taylor Drift. District 4: Blizzard of Oz, Red Chilly Brrrr-ito. District 5: Clear-o-Pathra, Blizzard Wizard. District 6: Zia Later, Snow, En-CHILL-ada.

We need a King Solomon Conflict Resolution function where, in your thread they can only see your and each others posts. You’d still be able to hide posts, being the thread owner.

In addition to the Nuclear Block™️ we should have a Break it Up function where when two people get into a fight in our mentions we can prevent them from seeing each other’s posts

Of course what Meta did was wrong. But their moderation just dipped from ineffective to nonexistent. I’ve tried reporting racists before and it rarely worked, I imagine it was much the same with gender stuff too.

For those of you who recently tuned in to my channel, this is my blog of creative stuff I find in my interwebs travels.
It’s admittedly music biased but there’s a ton of other stuff for other disciplines.
