Got an e-mail from Apple to sign up, the image within the e-mail should give a visual indication of what is coming ;)

Predictions -

New Mac Pro's, and Mac mini's

More about the iPhone

Hopefully more about Leopard and it's secret features

Not sure about iLife/iWork 07 (might happen earlier in the year)

More predictions anyone? :D

Mac OS X Leopard should have hit GM by then, or at least on that day.

iLife/iWork '07 will probably be released at the same time.

Edit:

Hoping for new iMacs aswel.

I think Leopard will be released at the WWDC2007 and ready to ship. (people seem to forget that spring ends June 21st)

iMacs will probably upgrade (and ready to ship).

iPhone will be released to USA. (not sure what's happening with other countries) (and ready to ship)

About iLife, it's very hard to anticipate. They could release it for Tiger in March and then, in June, they could say "Hey, you thought there were only these new features in iLife? See what we can do in Leopard!" I bet this thing can be released in March.

Mac Pros will probably get their upgrade in a month. (March)

I think this would make a nice WWDC2007 already. We don't need more actually. But TV displays, for God's sake, would be awesome. I'd buy one at the end of the year, that's obvious for me.

I don't really expect stuff from iPods at WWDC2007

And well, I love this new screenshot of Time Machine. I am not really going to use it right now I think, but the background of Time Machine really has improved. It looks much more like space now :D

By the way, does the picture also reflect a related iCal's interface?

Time Machine had that space background from the start, nothing changed so far.

Were you born that way, or did you put your finger inside the plug socket? ;)

Yeah, seriously Vista is the biggest most expensive cheap-ripoff ever :p

EDIT: Oh and I'm looking forward to these announcements!

If we look at the little video at http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/timemachine.html , and the video of WWDC 2006, the background is just dark and there are stars floating around. Now there's more colors, it's more vivid.

I rather time machine be more plain and simple, seems really slow at what you want it to do at the moment, all the animation.

Anyways if Apple doesnt hold a special event between now and WWDC, i assume WWDC will all be about Leopard/iLife. They are behind in their release, and Vista is giving them a lot of pressure to release a new OS.

Between now and WWDC however, a special event would hopefully update the following:

High possibilities

Mac Minis to C2Ds

MacBook Pro updates

Moderate possibilities

Video iPod line

I'm actually thinking Illuminous was the codename for the iPhone UI. Illuminous was supposed to be: Black, Transparent and Glossy. Guess what, that's what the iPhone is.

I'm expecting the Leopard Aqua to be this: Unified toolbars across all applications. A smooth dark metal to replace brushed metal as the idea of having a separate style for apps that are file browsers, representative of real life objects and apps that connect to devices is a good thing. Gel widgets such as scroll bars will be replaced with a more smooth gradient like in iTunes 7 as it will be easier for the vector UI to handle. Core Animation will be heavily used. MAYBE colour choices. As a vector UI would make it insanely easy to do. An update to icons. The folder icons are SO old now. Pinstripe will be removed except for inactive window toolbars. Look in the Dashcode Beta, it doesn't exist.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
