#80: 2025 Prognostications

The Trio is back after an extended winter break to prognosticate about the future of Apple development going into 2025. We discuss our hopes and dreams for the future of Apple Intelligence, Vision OS, and local LLM models on Apple Silicon. We also return to the topic of the “Universal UI” before discussing some personal projects, learning backend development, and the idea of creating a dumb, but simple, fitness app of some sort. ## Chapters 00:00 Introductions 01:15 Apple Development & Apple Intelligence in 2025 09:37 Exploring Voice Command Workflows and User Experience 15:09 ChatGPT Object Detection and Vision OS 17:17 Vision Pro and 3D Development Challenges 21:58 The Future of AI and Local Model Development 27:35 Exploring Cost-Effective Backend Solutions 32:21 Small App Development and Personal Projects 38:44 Fitness App Goals and Challenges 42:31 Game Development Aspirations 46:59 Wrap-Up 47:59 Tag Intro music: "When I Hit the Floor", © 2021 Lorne Behrman.
