What I shared on Twitter, and a bit more…
To #Microsoft, more than 110M people have already upgraded to #Win10 after many months is already a great result, #iOS beats that in days.
#Facebook Messenger Desktop App is only playing catch-up, #WeChat had web and desktop clients for quite a while already.
#Blackberry going #Android only in 2016, will it make their phones cool again? Can they help to deliver security and trust on Android?
For US$150, you can buy a #Meizu MX4 Pro with a 2560 x 1536 screen. Add a 25 dollars VR headset and it beats $599 Oculus on display quality.
People get hung up about a 3.5mm jack for audio, forgetting that back in the old days, we were forced to use 2.5mm jack for #Nokia phones!
Buying apple.car and http://apple.auto doesn’t mean #Apple will launch a car anytime soon.
If #OculusRift launched 3 years ago at $599, it would have sold like hot cakes. Now many cheap VR headset for mobile phones for $25 or less.
My concern is that we put too much effort in replicating human capabilities, as well as limitations, with #AI. https://www.ted.com/talks/fei_fei_li_how_we_re_teaching_computers_to_understand_pictures?language=en
Why look for a complete solution with #AI? Replicating irrational behaviors or stupidity should be part of it too? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poLZqn2_dv4
Many #Android phones added fingerprint scanner in 2015, expect first hack incident in 2016? How do we change our fingerprint after?
Of course, #Microsoft didn’t say how long you can keep the #OneDrive quota for. So, until next time… https://preview.onedrive.com/bonus/
Thank you #Microsoft for listening! To keep your existing 30GB quota, make sure you sign up before end of Jan 2016! https://preview.onedrive.com/bonus/
