Forgot to mention: I built my personal finance app. I've been using a spreadsheet for almost 12 years now. Different versions over the years, but the same concept. It took me 3 days to get a web app that works better than the spreadsheet, and it's been life-changing!

In my opinion, this is late by almost two years. This should have been the v1 when they first presented Apple Intelligence.

Why do you say this? It's OK to make such a bold statement, but you gotta share how you came to this conclusion. This helps with a good discussion.

Just kudos to OP for coming back. One thing I almost "hate" is that nowadays everyone can put something out there... videos, articles, etc., but when confronted with questions, you never see the discussion continue. YT videos are an example... SO MANY VIDEOS... People genuinely asking some good questions... and radio silence.

As someone who has been coming here for the past 8 years, I can't comment on "10-15 years" ago, but my experience hasn't changed a bit. This is and has been the only place where I visit almost daily (new account if you are looking at my profile) - and this is during vacation, during work, during weekends, etc. There is ALWAYS, literally, always an interesting discussion happening on topics that I would never be part of, if it wasn't for someone starting the discussion here. Yeh, today there is a bunch of AI, bla, bla, bla... so what will be next?! Not sure, but I know it will be here.

Well, I've been pretty active in our rec baseball team for the past few seasons, so: 1) App to help my son and other kids learn baseball IQ, and 2) Streaming app to compete against GameChanger. It's been refreshing to say the least. :)
