You're forgetting the bugs, hacks and racist crap on the mics! That will play well to a general audience. The film can periodically lock up, glitch out, maybe some bullets that fly around the corner and then when you least expect it you will hear a voice that says some racist crap just because.

Comment Mom, Grandma just told me to buy an iPhone (Score 1) 47

Imagine if (when) there is a clause in the licensing where the deceased is part of the advertisement customization.

Uncle Billy just told me to buy a motorcycle. Didn't he die by falling off one??

Grandpa just showed me his fishnet stockings; says to buy them at Target because they are super comfortable.

Comment too little to late (Score 1) 6

Like Amazon's Alexa, Siri has some very simple AI capabilities used by the masses but neither company were actually interested in the future of AI. They had the devices and the tech back in the day but no interest in making it better. I hate that they were so neglectful of this tech and are only interested in catching up due to lost market share, not because it might be a good user experience.

My gut says buying a company or two that will be key to drive the central nervous system of Apple products will lead to clashes and delay. These companies not only need to integrate with Apple culture and the Apple way of doing things, their software does as well. It seems to important to leave it to outsiders. It also feels way to late to develop it in house.

Feels like Tim Cook is incapable of deviating from Jobs vision 15 years ago. His job seems more like preserver of Jobs legacy than innovating.

Comment Re: Perhaps Since the Watch is a redesign (Score 1) 57

Wording wise the apple watch has the hardware, the phone gets all the data and displays it on the iphone. This is a crap ass workaround as it still needs a phone to view. If they infringed, which they probably did since they collaborated or something along those lines they should just pay for the tech. I'm waiting for the lawsuit that states Apple is now false advertising the watch is capable of doing this (as it seems clear it can't without the phone).

Comment Create your own software (Score 1) 178

Here's an idea, take all that education and find a couple like-minded people to build your own software.
A side hustle when you're not wrapping burritos.
This do it on your own mentality will go farther than any schoolwork for the résumé.
Or just contribute to an open source project of a company you're interested in. This get your name out there and they can see your coding ability.. if there is any. I've heard lots of stories where people get recruited by contributing to open source projects like this.

Comment Then share in the spoils (Score 4, Insightful) 188

If they can't pay upfront they need to make good with some other method.. shares (public or private) or something of value perpetual revenue from MAX accounts etc. It is beyond crazy how they argue it's fair when it isn't. If I trained my AI using their system they would slap me with a lawsuit so fast.. but hey might makes right
