Liquid glass is permanent. Crap. At least that should give them time to figure out and fix why this garbage visibly struggles and sometimes takes seconds to render simple layouts on a latest-generation iPhone 17.by loloquwowndueo

Evidently nothing is permanent. So that just shows arrogance.by hu3

"Permanent" as used in the article was merely in contrast to the concept of "going to get rolled back soon", not a true declaration of forever.by joemi

Are they talking about the design language or the liquid glass material?I had to update to iOS 26 recently. The liquid glass material is by far the worst aspect of it... but if it could be disabled I would be ok with most of the new UI changes.
Tahoe is a disaster though. I will stay with Sequoia until they fix that mess.

There is good, useful content in this article, but it is seriously overshadowed by the LLM-isms indicating that a nontrivial part of it is AI generated.I'm obviously channeling my inner boomer here, but as soon as I start seeing the tells of AI authoring, I just give up on the article altogether. To the author, please consider that I and many others want to see your thought process, warts and all, there is no need to hide behind the facade of the LLM screed.

Maybe I'm getting worse at recognizing it, but I didn't notice anything that made me think it was AI-authored. What were the telltale signs you noticed?by joemi

It just reads like a marketing pitch. Using an AI-generated header image gives up the game at the startby duskdozer

> I'm obviously channeling my inner boomer here, but as soon as I start seeing the tells of AI authoring, I just give up on the article altogether.Given that both my daughters - teen and tween - as well as I myself - gen X - have the same impulse I don't consider this a 'boomer' thing but a 'human' one. As long as genAI- produced text reads like empty marketroid drivel that impulse will remain.

My colleague refuses to update his iPhone so long as liquid glass exists. I've tried to encourage him to do so for the security updates, but he says that he's fully aware of the danger, but refuses to update because every time he does, Apple gives him something he doesn't want and takes away something he likes.by Simulacra

This article is just an ad for a consultant. It's also at least partially AI written, which is evident e.g. from the parentheses in the subheadings.by cubefox

Parentheses in headings is a telltale AI sign now? I feel like this has been a common way for normal humans to write for ages.by joemi

Normal humans do it very rarely, LLMs do it all the time.by cubefox

I wish we had metrics for claims like this. I feel like it's been a very common thing to see in blog posts written by humans, not AIs, over the last two decades.by joemi

It's probably not long till approximately nobody can distinguish LLM and human text.by cubefox

I think contextually here what is meant isn't that liquid glass will exist for the next 1000 years, but that they are not going to do a rollback to the previous UI.by asddubs
