On-device learning is a thing.

Indeed. I am increasingly suspecting that the next swing of the pendulum back towards thick clients will be driven not by reliability or performance but by privacy and security.

I'd also like to see Apple move beyond using the AppleTV and HomePod only as proxies for HomeKit, and start using them for on-device learning, backups, etc. "HomeKit Secure Video" suggests things might be moving that way a little. (And use my home computers too!)

I would still gladly pay for iCloud storage if it was mirrored on local storage. Seems ridiculous they got out of the WiFi router market; missed opportunity for this "edge computing".

This is what a local TimeCapsule should’ve been: an Apple Synology type storage and compute device, that would store a backup copy in iCloud encrypted.

Someone let Tim Apple know there’s still time!
