c/all enters the c/apple_enthusiast thread

There is no separate install for Apple’s on-device models. You download the OS, go into settings, and opt into the Apple Intelligence waitlist. When you’re approved, it just works.

That said, Chat GPT and the Image Playground are not part of 18.1.

So far it still feels pretty beta-y. AKA, not great.

But that might also change over the coming days. I don’t know if the local model is doing any background indexing.

I’m running it now. If y’all have any questions about the build, what’s in / what’s out, etc, just ask!

Right now it’s all opt-in.

That said, when it is enabled, you can disable it via: Settings > Apple intelligence > off.

Public beta and dev beta are often an identical build. Devs just get it first because they’re know how to dig out of a hole if the build is horribly wrong.

I can’t say I’m surprised. They said it we’d get betas by summer. That puts them on the 18.1 track.

Per the article you posted. It appears to be an optional way to customize a playlist. You have to decide to do it. If you don’t want an AI playlist cover, don’t tap the button.

Strings suggest that there will be a “Create Image” button when editing a playlist. This button will invoke Image Playground, which is part of the Apple Intelligence features.

You have to tap “Create Image” to open Image Playground. It’s doesn’t automatically generate random images for all your playlists.

Remember that month where all the memes were decades old…

Yes, but you also have the hardware. Hence my reference of TSMC, Qualcomm, etc.

Honestly, if you’re going to start boycotting the major technology companies because of Israel, your next phone is going to be this.

Apple, Google, Microsoft, LG, TSMC, Intel, Qualcomm, etc. They’re all pretty invested in the nation. And for the few companies like Samsung that pulled out, they’re still selling products that are made from Google, TSMC, and Qualcomm stuff. So you’re really only one step removed from companies that are invested in Israel.

Curious to see how or if this continues to exist after the very version of MacOS drops, and they have API key integration directly in the OS.

When instances get big, it gets really hard for volunteer admins to manage communities with controversial content. You end up having to deal with legal BS and lots of reports.

Admins and mods putting restrictions in place has more to do with keeping the community maintainable. Dealing with all of that stuff is tough when it’s after work and out of your own pocket.

I wish folks had a little bit more empathy for people volunteering their time and money to offer a free service. Lemmy.world’s head admin isn’t Zuck. He’s just a regular Joe Shmoe doing this in his free time.

These are volunteers, that have day jobs, that have to spend their own time and money to deal with the legal ramifications of that. These aren’t people with legal teams and millions to blow on risk mitigation. These are hobbyists doing this after work, after helping the kids with homework, after cooking dinner for the family, etc.

Good news is that other instances exist. This is just what one group of volunteers is offering to the world.

Walking backwards is also called “penis-side butt” in some languages.

Yeah, it requires an A17 or M1 or higher.

Also, the beta for this is likely end of summer. So that would mean GM builds will probably be targeting the iPhone 16 launch.

Alternative title. “Picture of Craig”

Said another way, Apple sells more smart phone hardware than any other phone manufacturer on the planet. Samsung being a strong second place at 24% of the world.
