It looks like someone is working on a Mac app that does exactly this, and they seem to have a functional prototype: https://x.com/TheOriginaliTE/status/1751251567641346340?s=20

This is especially embarrassing because their logo is literally an eclipse and it's the name of one of their color options... Seriously??

Their demo of AI Q&A in the announcement video (@3:36) is totally wrong. The Pin says the April 2024 total eclipse will be best viewed from Australia and East-Timor... Except the eclipse passes over the US and will be nowhere near Australia. The answer seems to be about a partial eclipse in April 2023. How was that not fact checked???
The answer to all of your questions is no

This is huge: "Rather than the classic ChatGPT personality with a fixed verbosity, tone, and style, developers (and soon ChatGPT users) can now prescribe their AI’s style and task by describing those directions in the 'system' message."

Personalized news aggregators are "TikTok for text" now?
Same experience here.

I actually thought this was a me problem and not an iPhone problem. I figured I was just getting lazy and had become too reliant on autocorrect to clean up my mistakes over the years.

I do notice that I tend to type much faster than I did 5-10 years ago. If I deliberately slow myself down like 30% I'm able to type almost flawlessly. Does this resonate with anyone else?

Do you really think scrolling through TikTok has the same effect on someone's brain as listening to the radio?
