I am an iPhone user, for 250USD million I’ll pretend to be heartbroken for the lack of AI in Siri.

Your tears will net you approximately 30¢ of that $250 mil. Congrats!

The proposed settlement would apply to people in the US who purchased all models of the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 15 Pro between June 10th, 2024 and March 29th, 2025.

People who submit qualifying claims can receive $25 for each eligible device, “which may decrease or increase up to $95 per device, depending on claim volume and other factors,” according to Clarkson Law Firm, the legal team behind the class action lawsuit.

The second link that I have cited brings you to the law firm, there is more information who is eligible and how to participate

I would start by clicking the second link in the previous post, the one for the law firm handling this. They should tell you there how to participate.

That’s probably an eighth of their marketing budget for these ads. Not a single fuck was given by one of the wealthiest companies in the world.

That’s because it is merely a legal system now. There appears to be no justice.

Honestly, they can keep the money if they avoid anymore work on “Apple Intelligence.”

They think that would cost them significantly more that 250m.

Even if it had existed and replied with an answer, we all know it would be a giant fucking gamble. To rely on it you have to be a giant fucking moron, although who else sings “I am genius” to themselves
