Apple has squarely shifted its focus toward artificial intelligence with the unveiling of its hotly anticipated iPhone 16 along with a slew of features coming with the next update to the device's operating system.

    It’s nice that Apple for once introduced a nice feature for others to copy, the camera button. I loved those on my Lumia and Xperia phones.

    Everything else is just meh… the normal 16 comes in some cool colours at least

      well yeah but i have to admit, the pink color is awesome. if it didn’t have to get that damn chatgpt integration, i would ditch android. been on the edge for a while.

        Not that I personally would ever switch to iPhone because there is still a lack of sideloading open source software; but could you just not use the chat gpt integration?

        It seems they are actually trying to not data harvest with all the AI stuff, there is quite a focus on privacy respecting server architecture and clearly defined conformations for the user for when something runs off device, or even off of Apple’s cloud (e.g. Chat GPT). I believe they even made their backend third party verifyable (although I’ve only seen their claims about this, I haven’t actually followed up).

        Anyway, plenty of reasons to dislike apple, I’m sure they still collect data, but why not just ignore the Chat GPT functionality?
