And I often turn to ChatGPT or Copilot to get answers to common questions that I’d normally go to Google for.

I’m also encouraged by Apple Intelligence. Even though it won’t be out until this fall, the developer preview of iOS 18 shows that Apple is finally making Siri smarter while also saving us time with features like recording and transcribing audio within notes and phone calls.
