[BS] Siri’s Still Stuck, But the Future Needn't
from The Eighth Hosted by Avraham Raskin
Apple’s WWDC didn’t just show off a new iOS—it hinted at an entirely new direction for how we’ll interact with our devices. From foundation models and voice transcription to a potential LayerOS-style rethink of app flow, this Brainstream dives deep into what’s here, what’s missing, and where Apple could go next. I reflect on past predictions, critique what Apple got right and wrong, and imagine a more fluid, AI-native interface that understands your workflows natively. TL;DR: Apple’s AI features are evolving, but the future is LayerOS—modular, intelligent, and seamless.
