I’m imagining this being built-in will be a lot more useful if you have multiple android devices. You won’t need to push the APK to each thing every time. Not to mention updating.

I’ve been making a few apps for my Apple devices through Xcode and I basically given up because I have to push the changes every time.

I’m partially assuming that there’s a bit of burnout.

iOS 27 has brought on the ability to create passes yourself

Yeah it's generated by the automod of the subreddit

This probably isn’t a very accurate article. But I still find it plausible anyway. I feel like most AI subscriptions have only now started showing value to me. And even then it’s because I’ve been willing to work and experiment with it to get it to do things on my behalf.

The vast majority of users are likely comfortable with just asking it quick questions, and probably don’t need agents running in the background all the time.

IBM once said “a computer can never be held accountable. Therefore a computer must never make a management decision”

I am not exactly sure if this would solve the overall problem. The main one being lack of oversight. The solution to a social issue generally isn’t to throw more technology at it.

Just one more good reason to be doing unit tests

I’ve always felt like MCP is way better suited towards consumer usage rather than development environments. Like, yeah, MCP uses a lot of a context window, is more complex than it should be in structure, and it isn’t nearly as easy for models to call upon as a command line tool would be. But I believe that it’s also the most consumer friendly option available right now.

It’s much easier for users to find what exactly a model can do with your app over it compared to building a skill that would work with it since clients can display every tool available to the user. There’s also no need for the model to setup any environment since it’s essentially just writing out a function, which saves time since there’s no need to setup as many virtual machine instructions.

It obviously isn’t as useful in development environments where a higher level of risk can be accepted since changes can always be rolled back in the repository.

If I recall correctly, there’s even a whole system for MCP being built, so it can actually show responses in a GUI much like Siri and the Google Assistant can.
