Benjamin and Chance react to Mark Zuckerberg’s recent comments about Apple having not done anything good recently … as we also look forward to everything Apple is set to announce this year. Apple gets in hot water about ‘Enhanced Visual Search’, and the iOS 18.3 beta cycle continues, if a little bare.
And in Happy Hour Plus, as Apple ramps up its marketing effort for Severance, Benjamin tries to convince Chance to give the show another chance. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.
