Federighi, Gurman points out, has been considered an AI skeptic with concerns “about the technology’s privacy, security, societal and employment implications.”
I’d say we should expect to see an interview with Federighi, with pained expression, claiming, “this was not the apple that I knew and loved, I just had to leave”, in the near future.
But then, this is a Mark “twice a day? that clock is going to take my job!” Gurman interview.
Driving.

No, you’re not alone. I absolutely hate everything about fireworks. As somebody who also enjoys loud, chaotic noise from time to time, I know that the very least I can do is put some headphones on while I listen to it.
Wym? I think they’ve already said no to the USA quite a few times already.
They are already not worth your money or trust.
My favourite ios client is Thunder for lemmy.
Oh I thought the reason was because corporations lobbied your government to make it mandatory for all places everywhere to have an abundance of parking.
I think we need something like this for someone on death row or something, maybe.
Why, though? What makes the person occupying the position of president uniquely qualified to make a decision in cases like this? If you have a judicial system that has been found to apply the law fairly, yet can still have its rulings overturned on a whim, doesn’t that make a mockery of the system?
It feels like an equivalent of a boss saying, “I know you and your team did months of research to come to the decision that you did, but I’m going to go in a different direction anyway. Not because I did more research than you, just because I feel like I know better than all of you”.
Unless theres’ some kind of reason that I’ve overlooked.
Beyond the scope of this thread, I know, but the concept of president seems absurd to me. Especially the way it’s implemented in the USA.
I don’t understand how any of this is addressing any of the concerns that users have expressed about the direction of the company. In fact, if I was feeling particularly skeptical, I’d just as well believe that these posts were solicited from inside the company.

Maybe I’m a particularly sensitive, spiteful snowflake, but if the boss of my company accused me of being a “loser” because I cared about the quality of the product, I’d be looking to deliberately sabotage the product. And for a new job, of course.
2026 business has got very little to do with customers/consumers, supply and demand. Maybe it’s been that way for a long time, but this ‘AI’ nonsense has bought it to the surface, evidently.
It’s a simple misunderstanding. What was actually said was, “we’re all over the moon that she’s gone”
It’ll be interesting to see if Australia lets apple make their own rules for how exactly they comply, like they did in the EU. If they do, this isn’t really a huge win.
You’re technically correct, but I still disagree with you on this. My reasoning is that I think the real story here is that meta has wormed its way out of being punished adequately, again.
No, I mean more like “Meta to pay just 10% of original fine” - So people get an idea of how their judiciary system really works.
the state was awarded $219.5 billion, but the penalty was ultimately reduced to $25 billion.
would have been a better headline, tbh
It’s not the only one that was taken down. Some of them have just been tagged as “deleted”. Others, perhaps those with more traction, have been disappeared completely.
I contributed my opinion to one of these posts and it has completely vanished without a trace.
The ‘justification’ theyre using is, “We run this forum to manage feature requests”. The implication being that a stable, secure, trustworthy product is not a feature we can request.
