Jennifer Pattison Tuohy was in-person at Apple’s Welcome Home event and got hands-on time with HomeView. We get into the details about using the device, plus Apple Home Collection, and why HomeView vs iPad for the smart home.
Apple made its foray back in the smart home with the new HomeView device, Apple TV 4K, HomePod mini 2, and Home Collection devices. We debate who will benefit from the HomeView, have a theory about Siri AI and Apple TV, plus try to make sure we all understand Claude isn’t alive.
Apple may be partnering with LG for new smart home accessories, Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Ultra reveal with “MagSafe” USB-C port, Muse AI in real use cases, OpenAI may be going too far with its models, and Stephen finally tries Tailscale.
