I am pretty unhappy with Apple doing the image generation, was really hoping that just would not happen.

But a lot of the other features actually seem useful without feeling shoehorned in. At least so far.

I am hoping that I can turn off the ability to use a server while keeping local processing, but curious what that would actually look like. Would it just say "sorry can't do that" or something? Is it that there is too much context and it can't happen locally or entire features that only work in the cloud?

Edit:

OK how they handle the ChatGPT integration I am happy with. Asks me each time if I want to do it.

However... using recipe generation as an example... is a choice.



What’s wrong with the image generation?


I think there's still a myriad of concerns around the ethics of using others uncredited images to power models that aim to disenfranchise artists.

but my biggest concern is that I think they look tacky, and putting it right in the messaging apps is gonna be ... irritating.


Emoji, Memoji, stickers, now gen images. Can’t wait to start receiving them from my dad and my mother-in-law in the most absurd of contexts. Like honestly, I like how much the older relatives enjoy weird, tacky stuff like this.


Tech people make fun of tacky stuff like this, but it's a big driver for regular people to upgrade quickly.


People have ethical concerns about all the public images that were scraped. Regardless of whether or not we agree with them, it is a pretty popular stance to take.


Most of the generated images shown were terrible but my kid is going to love that emoji generator.


It was Google who wanted to put glue on pizza, not ChatGPT :)


I feel like I remember there being plenty of examples of bad ChatGPT recipe generation.

Regardless, even if it wasn't ChatGPT, given the recent problems I would not have used that as one example given that regardless of who it came from.
