Hello there and welcome to AppleVis Extra number 98.
My name is Dave Nason.
Because it is June we are talking, of course, about WWDC and because it is AppleViz I am talking, of course, to Thomas Domville.
How are you today, Tom?
Hey, I'm pretty good.
Boy, was that a show or what?
It was.
Nearly two hours that went on and, yeah, it was probably the most anticipated WWDC I can remember in a long time.
Like everybody was waiting for this one, waiting for the announcement.
So before we get into the nitty-gritty, did it meet those expectations for you?
Definitely.
I had a check box of all the things I wanted to hear and it definitely checked all the tick box that I wanted to see and hear.
So I was very happy with the results.
And I know there were some disappointments out there as well, but that's what we'll be talking about.
Yeah, for sure.
And it's funny, we've had a few of these announcements in recent months from all the companies, you know, Google had IO, Microsoft had events, OpenAI had an event, and they've all, you know, Google especially and so on.
They've shorn the words AI or the letters AI into every sentence of the entire thing it seemed, whereas Apple, it was kind of, it must have been nearly an hour before they set the term, though I thought that was interesting.
So we might take the same approach to them and we will kick off with the regular updates, you might call them, to iOS and Vision OS and Mac OS and so on.
And then we can have a chat through the so-called AI.
That sounds great.
I think that'd be perfect.
So they did kick off with Vision OS and I don't think we need to.
Why not, man?
You know, it is kind of odd that, you know, it's only been four months since they released it and they actually have a Vision OS 2 that comes out.
I'm thinking, wow, this is kind of, not only that, but it really didn't feel like it was a 2.
I mean, it was like one big thing and that was it.
I was kind of really disappointed.
I mean, yeah, granted that 3D photos sounds cool now, but definitely not for anything for us.
No, no.
And laserhertz, you know, Marcus Brownlee, you know, he said, it's more, felt like more of a 1.2 than a 2.
Exactly.
It was like a 1.2.
It was like a 1.5 update.
That was it.
But I guess what they're doing there is they're getting it onto their summer cycle.
That's all that really is.
So next year, it'll be 3 and, you know, go from there, I guess.
So it makes sense.
But what it included was, yeah, you can turn any photo into a 3D experience or whatever the correct terminology is and some new gestures.
But from an accessibility point of view, we're not aware of anything really.
You know, it's still a product that is very limited in terms of availability and, you know, what it can…
