| More dense but less trust worthy. I don't think they would have pushed apple intelligence the way they did if there was a live demo. |

| They are boring infomercials now. The live audience used to keep it from feeling too prepackaged. |

| and so boring. I would take Jobs presenting a live demo than any of this heavily-produced stuff. |
