Tim Cook announced pretty significant price increases to Apple's hardware line this week. The increases came because of component shortages that have been happening for the past few months. Apple is moving its Hide My Email feature to its own subdomain, which means that businesses can block all attempts to sign-up for a service by blocking the new subdomain. Seems odd Apple would do this. Dave and I also chat about AI and what could happen with Apple Music.

It was a big week for Apple at WWDC with the relaunch of Apple Intelligence and the long promised revamped Siri. Unfortunately for those in the EU, many of the new AI features shown at WWDC will not be available in Europe due to the laws the EU has implemented.

Dave just bought his first e-bike so we talk about how the technology and the prices have changed over the past couple of years. WWDC is coming up next week and it is going to be an exciting time. Of course, the biggest news is that Gemini will now be incorporated into all of Apple's operating systems.

In an article for Bloomberg, Mark Gurman makes the case for an Apple Watch reboot. He's certainly not wrong, the Apple Watch has been stagnant for years now. Some keen people have found a new URL in the updated code pointing to a new subdomain genai.apple.com. Nothing happens when you click on it, but I'm sure after WWDC, we'll get to see exactly what it's for. People have been stealing iPhones since they first came out, but in London, the thieves are also starting to text threats to family members.

Perhaps one of the best Apple Intelligence decisions I've ever heard, the company announced this week that users will be able to swap Apple's AI model to a rival's to control the new AI system. That means you could use Claude or Gemini or another company that wants to have theirs available. Dave and I also talk about Apple's decision to show advertising on Maps. A disappointing choice for a company that ridiculed Google for its advertising efforts to customers and saying Apple doesn't treat its customers like the product.
