It's like an uncanny valley thing and I don't know if people are going to respond well to this. They might get used to it but it's just strange. This one I feel like is why you have to look forward into the future because this is the first gen version of it. But let's say theoretically in the future this gets much better, much smaller and much higher quality. Yeah. It's acceptable to like jump on a FaceTime with a high res animated version of you and there's hand tracking and face tracking and stuff.Yeah, I guess. It's got good mapping of your face though because it's got those downwards facing cameras that are seeing your facial expressions.
It's WWDC time! In this episode we break down everything Apple announced at its annual developer conference, from iOS to MacOS to.. VisionOS? Unfortunately, in order to fit everything we had to skip on doing trivia in this episode, but don't worry! If wacky tech trivia is what you live for (like us), we did a trivia collab with the Vergecast where we went head-to-head so make sure to check that out! We also hopped on at the end of their emergency WWDC podcast for a fun lightning round at the end. There's a ton to get into with everything that Apple announced. This is a long one, but we hope you enjoy!
