The iPhone Pocket is, thankfully, a limited edition so not all is lost. 😞
After Craft, Ulysses, still in beta, might be the second-best take on Liquid Glass adoption. I love it.
Apparently, you can upload a .shortcut file into ChatGPT for analysis!? 🧐😱🤯 it’s great for learning. Will try it soon.
I’m tempted to start a sticker collection and put them on my M2 MacBook Air. I’ve never done such a thing because I always keep in mind that I’ll resell my Mac, and my sticker taste might not match the buyer’s taste. I’ll probably start with the M-Series stickers from Basic Apple Guy.
Google and Apple - A Convenient Wedding?
Apparently, if rumors are any indication, Apple’s next AI provider for integration into Apple Intelligence is Google’s Gemini, or a derivative of it. It would go along with Apple’s own LLM models running on Private Cloud Compute.
I wonder if Google’s contribution is free for Apple or part of a larger deal, tied to the Google search agreement, where Google is the default search engine on the iPhone.
Imagine that1, Apple probably said: “You know what, I’ll reduce your cost for this search deal, but you accept to build a specific version of Gemini LLM for use on Private Cloud Compute and develop a conduit for Gemini on-device that integrates with Apple Intelligence.”

In my latest video, this is how I’m using, for now, Craft + ChatGPT via Atlas. My reading workflow is finally taking the right direction. AI haters, I hear you but not everything is bad in AI land.
Just pushed an update to the Projects section on my personal landing page.
I just rewatched Thriller, like I do every year on Halloween. What a great music video! Everything is in there: music, storytelling, special effects, dance, great décor, and a good ending. Pure and genuine entertainment.
I experimented with a few agentic prompts using ChatGPT Atlas browser on my Micro.blog timeline. I asked it to list my posts for the day. It took only 17 seconds, and voila! It’s quite impressive when it functions correctly.
Apple’s strong quarter in services revenue shows that people are willing to pay for additional storage, among other things. I don’t think Apple will feel the need to increase the free storage tier beyond 5 GB anytime soon.
