Life on the Wicked Stage: Act 3Sunday Morning ReadingThe rapid decay of all things continues. I’m not even sure if “decay” is the right word. “Collapse” might be a better choice. Regardless, there’s no “decay” or “collapse” in my sharing articles and writing every week in Sunday Morning Reading. Enjoy.Russell Shorto tells us that the fracture we’re facing shouldn’t surprise in <a href="https://www.salon.com/2025/03/15/americas-fatal-division-is-nothing-new-it-was-baked-in-from-the-beginning/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">America’s Fatal Division Is Nothing New: It Was Baked In From The Beginning</a>. He’s right and that’s also nothing new. We just have a propensity for ignoring what we shouldn’t. Marc Elias says <a href="https://www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-cant-give-in-to-fear/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">We Can’t Give In To Fear.</a> He’s right. But with those we mistakenly counted on having already done so, it makes it tougher for the rest of us. Brian Barrett of Wired (which continues to do excellent reporting) gives us a rundown on <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-donald-trump-doge-congress-takeover/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The United States of Elon Musk. </a>Good piece with good context. I don’t disagree with his premise that it’s unsustainable. The larger concern is what’s left in its wake.NatashaMH opens up a personal tale of exploring justice, relationships, and personal power in <a href="https://medium.com/ellemeno/the-price-of-guns-and-butter-4eb568893207" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Price of Guns And Butter. </a>Things aren’t just decaying on political and social fronts, technology is marching right alongside, if not leading the charge. John Gruber lays out a mea culpa of sorts in discussing Apple’s less than intelligent move into Artificial Intelligence in <a href="https://daringfireball.net/2025/03/something_is_rotten_in_the_state_of_cupertino" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Something Is Rotten In The State of Cupertino.</a> I’ll have more to say on this later this week. I wrote a bit about it <a href="https://warnercrocker.com/2025/03/10/apple-intelligently-delays-new-siri/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">last week </a>also.Will Knight, (again in Wired) tells us that <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/ai-safety-institute-new-directive-america-first/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Under Trump, AI Scientists Are Told To Remove ‘Ideological Bias’ From Powerful Models. </a>Tell me. Who didn’t see this kind of thing happening?Cory Doctorow in Pluralistic lays out how <a href="https://pluralistic.net/2025/03/15/altering-the-deal/#telescreen" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Amazon Annihilates Alexa Privacy Settings, Turns On Continuous Nonconsensual Audio Uploading</a>. One way user agreements flow only one way. Again, who didn’t see this coming?In times of uncertain futures it’s always somewhat uncomfortably comforting to reminisce about simpler times. When it comes to technology there was perhaps no simpler or more innocent time than during the age of the Commodore 64, which was my first home computer. We’ve come a long way.

Krzysztof KołaczJohn Gruber: „Coś jest nie tak w Apple”John Gruber z Daring Fireball ostro skomentował opóźnienia wprowadzenia spersonalizowanych funkcji Siri przez Apple. W swoim wpisie pt. „<a href="https://daringfireball.net/2025/03/something_is_rotten_in_the_state_of_cupertino" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Something Is Rotten in the State of Cupertino</a>” stwierdził, że opóźnienia te naruszają wiarygodność firmy.Gruber podkreśla, że Apple przez lata zbudowało reputację firmy niezawodnej, ale teraz ta wiarygodność jest zagrożona. Jego zdaniem problem nie tkwi w samym opóźnieniu, ale w fakcie, że Apple „sprzedało historię, która nie była prawdziwa”. Spersonalizowane funkcje Siri zaprezentowane podczas WWDC w 2024 roku były jedynie koncepcją, a nie gotowym rozwiązaniem.<blockquote>Prezentacja po prezentacji, produkt po produkcie, funkcja po funkcji, rok po roku, Apple z firmy, której nie można było uwierzyć, że pozostanie wypłacalna, stała się zdecydowanie najbardziej wiarygodną firmą w branży technologicznej. Apple nie jest zagrożone bankructwem finansowym (i w rzeczywistości pozostaje najbardziej dochodową firmą na świecie). Ale ich wiarygodność jest teraz nadszarpnięta.</blockquote>Gruber określił to jako „bullshit” i dodał, że Apple powinno było przewidzieć problemy, skoro nie było w stanie zaprezentować działającej wersji Siri. Według niego sytuacja ta zagraża kulturze doskonałości Apple – jeśli firma nie podejmie działań naprawczych, grozi jej utrata pozycji lidera w branży technologicznej.Gruber wzywa Tima Cooka do natychmiastowego działania, ostrzegając, że tolerowanie przeciętności i nieuczciwości może doprowadzić do upadku firmy.<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/ai-si/" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/apple/" target="_blank">#Apple</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/apple-intelligence/" target="_blank">#AppleIntelligence</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/john-gruber/" target="_blank">#JohnGruber</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/opoznienia-apple/" target="_blank">#opóźnieniaApple</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/problemy-z-siri/" target="_blank">#problemyZSiri</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/siri/" target="_blank">#Siri</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/tim-cook/" target="_blank">#TimCook</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://imagazine.pl/tag/wiarygodnosc-apple/" target="_blank">#wiarygodnośćApple</a>
