@manton yeah makes sense. Though that’s got me thinking of a second order question. How much of this is tied to a phone, tablet, or computer. My air pods def don’t have the computation to do stuff, yet.

@manton why wouldn’t Apple lean into agents. My prior is most consumers just want a smooth experience but don’t want to code and train their agents. So the App Store could have its own agents section where developers build agents-as-apps.

@danielpunkass a few weeks ago I read a post from an academic. He has a dozen-ish versions of his main website in various languages. Got a few invited speaker talks by just having rough translations of his site, his abstracts, etc.
