It’s very weird that Apple managed to do a 30-minute intro of actually useful AI stuff (especially stuff like “figure out when my mom’s plane lands” when you don’t know if you had it in email or test), then showed a half-hearted thing with chatGPT, and that’s the headline.
I was going to say that I'm the kind of person who does this, but it's because I buy a share in a fishing boat and get ~50 lbs at a time. And to be fair to @braak.bsky.social , I don't think the kind of person who buys salmon that way is the kind of person who wonders how they should prepare it.
They gave an example of cheesecake this morning. Siri will come up with a cheesecake recipe based on the internet, and I can’t imagine why anyone would trust such a thing. It’s like ChatGPT telling you to clean with bleach and vinegar at the same time
One of these days, someone's gonna get a hare-brained answer just like that from it and then there's gonna be lawsuits because they followed the advice, ignorantly. That is what it will take to put the nail in this AI mania, tbh.
It just feels like they want to have everything both ways. Oh, we want to stuff our AI in your face to answer all your questions and concerns but if the AI tells you to jump in a vat of boiling oil that's not on us!!
There was a website called Webtender where you listed the ingredients you had in your liquor cabinet and it gave you drinks you could make with what you had. That was 20 years ago.
I was gonna say: "Salmon, lemon, and tomatoes is hard? A normal search engine can't help you? Give me salmon, white beans, lime, and kale at least for something harder...no, wait."
