@Razorwing: How can there be a second season? I hope not to be honest. I read that others found it rushed as well but it was to be expected IMO.

I hope that they're going to work on either a new series with less childish characters and more details in everything or work on Gundam: The Origin. If you compare old Gundam series to Gundam AGE you'll see that they dumped everything down which is a shame to be honest. I hope that the next series will be a bit more mature like the UC series.

I think 00's one of the few that were really on point. What they really need to do is bring out an English version of ZZ Gundam. :)

What do you mean with on point? ZZ is an alright series but don't expect it to be of the same quality as Zeta Gundam. Which might as well be the reason why there's not an English version of it. The Japanese version is great on it's own anyways.

True, though the 1st season was probably still the best though the art and whatnot in the 2nd season was way better than in the 1st season. Nothing beats Zeta Gundam in my book though :p It's a proper Gundam series with great character development, great/strong characters, great art, great animation, great fights. And the most important of all; a great story.

I definitely feel you there. :D I plan on watching Zeta all over again. I'm in love with the intro song. :)

^The whole OST is pretty awesome. If you want to rewatch it, and haven't seen it, you might want to rewatch it be watching "A New Translation". It has a alternative ending which made fans more happy about the series. There are also other things that they've altered and added. And the new scenes that they've added are gorgeous and I really hope it's the style that they'll be using for Gundam: The Origin. It's kind of the same style as Gundam Unicorn, but not exactly the same. It still has that "Zeta" feel to it.

"A New Translation" also comes with new OP and ED songs which all fit the titles of the 3 movies.

I heard about the alternation since I watched Zeta on the Anime channel. I didn't actually know about the movies unless mentioned in the list of Gundam series on Wiki. Actually, I think i did, but it was a side story to the first Gundam Series before the Titans existed. Yea! I think that's it!

^What? "A New Translation" is just a retelling of the original Zeta series which are split up into 3 movies. It has nothing to do with the first series. I also have no idea what list and what sidestory you are talking about :p

The original series have been condenced into 3 movies as well in which they altered a few things. Tomino made the Gundam RX-78-2 look less like a super robot like he inteded to do with the original series. Hayato was also given a new different kind of Guntank in the Jaburo base. There have also been other alterations.

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.

      And within the EU all this Siri AI stuff will probably work around 2030 and the IPhone 25 🤣
