Apple officially set the dates for WWDC 2024 today, revealing that the event will take place from June 10 through June 14. As if there were any doubts that artificial intelligence will be a key part of WWDC this year, Apple’s marketing boss Greg Joswiak says the event will be “Absolutely Incredible.”

Rather than get caught up in fads, we should use technology appropriately. Our use should fit with our purposes. Examples:
—When I want to check if a tree fell in the wood next to my house following a windstorm, I walk through it. I don't try to squeeze my car up its narrow trails.
—When I need landscaping blocks, I don't walk to Lowes or Home Depot. They're miles away and I could return with only one at a time. I drive there. That's much easier.
Now to my point. When I want to solve a problem that requires intelligence, I use my own based on research. I trust it far more than I'd trust anything that'd come out of Google, which has already demonstrated that its AI is loaded with an array of bizarre dogmas and blind to the most obvious of realities.
If I depended on AI, I'd waste a lot of time filtering out the trash ideas. It is much better to simply think for myself.
Get it? (A)bsolutely (I)ncredible…
AI at WWDC 2024
Even beyond Joswiak’s subtle AI tease on social media today, the writing has been on the wall for a while. Apple CEO Tim Cook has teased Apple’s plans to unveil new AI announcements on multiple occasions this year.
During Apple’s most recent earnings call, Cook said Apple is spending a “tremendous amount of time and effort” on artificial intelligence technologies, and the company is “excited to share the details of our ongoing work in that space later this year.”
