Extremely surprised we didn’t get the “book me a flight” example that has been an AI demo used over and over but everyone’s so particular about flights I can’t see many people just wanting to one shot it.

The laundry list of object removal, spacial photos, better speech to text etc is always just the latest open models just being slapped in there and branded as Apple.

Ultimately the meat of this presentation was the work of people outside Apple.

For me "book me a flight to X on day Y" is so easy to do manually I don't need AI.

Where I do want AI is for really complex queries, like "find me a time and money efficient itinerary through Europe visiting places I haven't been before. Present options and I'll tell you what I don't like about each of them then we'll narrow in on an optimal solution"
