Is it possible to label/tag these submissions as containing content that is AI-generated? I think the HN community would appreciate that

Yes, it would be appreciated.

No, it is not possible.

> Even among tech people, they have good will

Wait, do they?

I mostly remember:

- A neglected desktop OS with slowly deteriorating quality

- Aimless products like the Vision Pro that seems to have failed as the "get the devs excited" premium SDK launch everyone described it as

- Rocky start issues on Apple Intelligence, nerfed Siri, etc.

- Unexciting iPhone launch and lots of ridicule levied on Liquid Glass

It's the laptop to get for compute/battery, which definitely is not nothing, but I'd say few tech people have been excited about Apple otherwise lately, as product or platform.

We have different ideas of what qualifies as tech people if we're talking about Liquid Glass, Siri, and Vision Pro

IMO, "consumer electronics enthusiasts" != "tech people"

> GitHub moving into Core AI team

On the one hand, this probably means it gets the funding it needs to keep going strong.

On the other hand, I'm worried that this means that GitHub is going to focus exclusively on building AI features while the core product becomes stale/abandoned.

Did GitHub have a funding problem? They doubled revenue last year, with 40% of that coming from GitHub Copilot. I imagine that for 2025, the increase will be much higher than even that.

I expect that the problem that Microsoft aims to fix is that people can use GitHub effortlessly without locking into Azure and Power Platform
