A user struggled with speaker‑less transcriptions generated by the iPhone Notes app. By exporting the audio file and feeding it to Google Gemini 3 Pro, the AI produced a full transcript that correctly identified each speaker. An attempt to achieve the same result with ChatGPT 5.1, even using a Plus account, failed because the model could not access the audio file. The experience highlights Gemini’s strength in handling raw audio and speaker identification, while exposing limitations in ChatGPT’s current audio‑processing capabilities. Leia mais →

Apple’s upcoming macOS Tahoe 26.2 adds a low‑latency Thunderbolt 5 feature that lets multiple Macs operate as a single AI supercomputer. By linking four Mac Studios—each capable of up to 512 GB of unified memory—developers can run massive models such as the 1‑trillion‑parameter Kimi‑K2‑Thinking model using far less power than traditional GPU clusters. The technology also supports M4 Pro Mac mini, M4 Pro/Max MacBook Pro, and the 14‑inch MacBook Pro (though the latter is limited to Thunderbolt 4). The new capability promises substantial performance gains for on‑device AI research without requiring extra hardware. Leia mais →
