based on their apple intelligence demos they are optimizing their products for their core demo of 55-95 year old boomers who talk out loud to think and read every page of the nytimes. you are miles away from the US consumer product experience here.

You say this like it a bad thing my 90yr old grandmother can use WhatsApp and iCloud Photos - if they can get that demographic using LLMs meaningfully, it probably means they’ve cracked the interface.

Boomers were born up until 1965, so the youngest boomer is 61 this year.

Please don't slur us older GenX as boomers.
