I completely missed Apple's WWDC Keynote. You can watch it here in case you have missed it too. (developer.apple.com)

My personal recap of this keynote

The weird stuff:

Apple reinvents Winterboard theming from iPhoneOS 2
Apple reinvents Android quick settings panel
Apple reinvents PiP on Safari
Apple reinvents tiling windows
Apple Intelligence - I'm a bit sceptical on how capable it will turn out. Also for everyone not living in the US of A it's again envy and waiting. Finally, I can't get my head around it how they won't be losing tons of money. Personal cloud AI sounds expensive as hell.
Even more iMessage ~bloat~ enhancements

The fun stuff:

Skydiving - I'm definitely not too old for this stuff.
Craig, Craig, Craig, Craig
Parcour
Calculator on iPadOS - Err, are we living in 3024 now? World hunger is no more, everyone.
WatchOS workout evaluation

The good stuff:

Math and calculations in iPad Calculator and Notes - This would instantly make me buy an iPad for studies, if I were going to school/university right now
Handwriting x word processor
Your iPhone on your Mac - The seamlaess drag and drop gesture felt a bit like magic.
On device AI - Pretty dope concept. I hope this turns out well.

Starting with the iPhone 14, they put the last generation processor in the non-pro and the current generation processor in the pro

The weird thing here is that the 15 non-pro (the new processor from the 14 gen - A16) has a faster NPU than the M1 processor that does support the AI feature

The only possible technical reason is because they put such an anemic amount of RAM in their phones. Otherwise it’s entirely an artificial limitation

Running top of the line models does require a lot of RAM, so it’s not an entirely ridiculous theory.

The one I run on my desktop needs at least 12 gigs of VRAM
