The big question for WWDC is how Apple is going to put more distance between features for Intel and Apple silicon Macs? Here are some suggestions.
Apple Neural Engine
Trying macOS betas, support for Catalina, is the M1 dead, and what does the ANE do all day? What should come from WWDC this year.
How can you tell when software uses the Neural Engine in an M1 series Mac? How much power does it use, and what is Espresso? Mysteries unravelled.
How Apple’s Neural Engine ensures that your data remains private, rather than uploading it for processing on servers. And it spares your CPU cores from running neural computation.
For some images, Visual Look Up fails so completely that it’s not even offered. Could this be exploited as a way of blocking image recognition?
Visual Look Up also recognises flowers, landmarks and pets, as well as well-known paintings. Here’s how it does those, and how Live Text is different.
