This is the first year where I absolutely lost interest in WWDC and paying way more attention to AI announcements from @AnthropicAI and @OpenAI
Feels like the end of an era to me, but ...
Claude Code or Codex will have to study iOS frameworks and not me
I only want solutions
Interesting how my hotel in Madrid names the worst rooms VIP 1, VIP 2 etc... to give you the sense that you are in the unique ones, when in reality they are the worst
This is exactly what Im chasing constantly. I think being an agentic engineer is to finally let go the coding profession and think of source code as a black box.
May be hard to see, but to me that is extremely exciting
I like the video, not so much the Liquid Glass itself, but I am always excited for changes like this when they happen.
And I also trust Apple is the best company to make something so challenging like Liquid Glass to work well
One of them was that that my iOS simulators keep messing up branches and derived data while coding with multi agent mode. It created a script to pick simulators
The other one was that I wanted to receive AI news or updates in some inbox easy to access for me every 2 days. It created a scheduled task in Claude that will retrieve the new in my Claude iPhone / Desktop app
I particularly like this one
Claude Opus 4.8 is out today. It's our strongest coding model yet: up on SWE-bench Pro (from 64.3 to 69.2) and noticeably more honest about its own work. It tells you when it's unsure and catches its own bugs instead of declaring victory early. Same price as 4.7.
4.8 defaults to high effort, which spends about the same tokens as 4.7's default on coding but performs better.
For hard problems and long-running async work, switch to xhigh. We've raised Claude Code rate limits to cover the extra tokens.
