Spitfire III, the Second

I won’t be upset it 1Password gets sherlocked, particularly if the forthcoming Apple passwords app allows sharing within a family. 1Password has become a bit frustrating to use lately. The Safari extension can never decide if it wants to work or not, and the interface is horrible.

Unlike its competitors, Apple has strengths in two areas that are currently PR headaches for AI: privacy and the environment.

Another strength of Apple - coming from behind in a race to eventually lead the pack. They’ve done this in category after category over the years - laptops, MP3 players, Mobile phones. They might be in the process of doing it again with virtual reality / augmented reality / spatial computing.

Will they do the same come-from-behind-to-eventually-lead with AI? Possibly.

I do believe they’re going to define a uniquely Apple lane in the AI race, and I’m happy about that. Privacy is everything, and Apple is the company I trust the most in that regard.

Monday should be interesting.

I bragged a bit yesterday about our new morning walking habit. Well, we skipped the walk this morning. The best part, though, is that I was ready to go and Renee was the one that wanted to skip. It’s ok, though…she has a long day today.

I’m all alone tonight, everyone else has something going on. So, I’ll cut the grass and, after that, I think I’ll have a beer. I’ve got something else in the works, too, but I won’t know on that for a few hours. Fingers crossed.
