I’d say that we are roughly 90% there. A lot of stuff in that video will require AI,
and apps specifically designed to take advantage of AI. I’d say that in about three
to five years we will be about 95% there, and that in five to 10 years we could
potentially be all the way there.

I suggest that you e-mail them and ask when you are going to see your product. If you don’t get a satisfying answer within a day, I recommend that you contact your credit card company and have the charge cancelled.

Re: hyperactive hard disks
I don’t have a device that will run macOS 15, but for giggles I try to research the issue posted.?
Brave, gave the answer that it was released, I believe it said in February. Since it is 15.3 >.1<, I? ass-o’-me it is a bug fix.?
Then I asked support.apple.com that, what is the latest macos, and what is the last release of macos. The first returned no answer, and the second focused on released, not macos.?
Why would you make an AI public, if it can’t update ?its available information? Research yes, public no.?

I'm finding as time goes on and I get my feet wet in AI that for questions such as this, i.e., the meaning of log nomenclature, that an AI search can be much more productive and time saving than running a search in your browser. This just one question. There are lots of other terms you can run an AI search on in your log. Maybe they will reveal a clue that makes sense with whatever is going on with your system.?

I am not a fan of AI. I think I will start calling it AD, artificially dumb, especially since it keeps crapping into the pool of information.?

Re: hyperactive hard disks
It told me it was ‘current’ to sometime last year or something???? I corrected it, told it that 15 did exist.? It just apologized that that was beyond its ken.

Re: Soundflower replacement
?
Thanks Ben,
I kind of needed this right away and even before you replied with your good suggestion I had remembered Rogue Amoeba from decades ago. I even bought a copy of Audio Hijack back then. So I downloaded the current version of Audio Hijack and ran it in demo mode and got the job done. Rogue Amoeba is still an awesome outfit.? If I need such functionally again I am definitely paying for it. Anyone wanting an audio application should check them out.
?
I have now gone back and looked at Piezo. It would be perfect for simple capturing of application audio and is less expensive than Audio Hijack. It took me a few minutes to find a comparison of the features of the two on their Web site so I will put a link here for the curious.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? Is this a result of the tariff turmoil?
Various forums and threads online suggest you are by no means alone in this. I spent some time a couple of weeks ago looking in to this device for my soon to arrive Mac mini M4 Pro.
Maybe they were ill-equipped to deal with the demand for these items? Maybe they’re a shady outfit??
Another reason I passed on this was the speed of the $99 unit - 10Gbps is not stellar when connecting to my new Mac mini M4 Pro with Thunderbolt 5 ports on it.
Similar/identical items are for sale by this outfit too
