Ahead of yesterday’s keynote, we asked you how optimistic you were about what the company was likely to announce. The executive summary was that there was absolutely no consensus.
Votes were split very evenly between very optimistic, somewhat optimistic and not very. So now that you’ve heard what Apple had to say, what were your impressions … ?
We yesterday summarised the possible reasons for both optimism and pessimism. On the plus side, the new features are being powered by Google’s Gemini models, and these appear to be at least close to delivering on the promises made for them.
On the negative side is Apple’s track record to date, which started with a glossy ad promising lots of exciting AI features for the iPhone 16 and ended with having to make a U-turn on these and delete the video.
Given this, it’s perhaps not surprising that no consensus view emerged.
Now that you’ve watched the keynote and heard what Apple has to say, what were your impressions?
