Apple Took the Stage for WWDC (We Will Distribute ChatGPT)

Hello, happy Sunday, and welcome to Context Window.

Big changes often start with small tweaks. Over the past eight months, we’ve gradually made some changes to the Sunday Digest, adding new sections: a tightly edited curation of links and insights, an illuminating chart, feedback from our readers, a vision of a future application of technology, and, today, a recommendation from the week’s guest writer. Today we’re also giving it a new name, Context Window, to reflect our belief that AI is the most important technology of the last decade.

Our goal at Every is to tell you what happens next—to help you understand what’s happening in technology and why it matters—with a sprinkle of inspiration. Each Sunday, whether you're reflecting on the week that was or preparing for the one to come, we hope to leave you informed, entertained, and enlightened. As always, let us know what you think in the comments.—Kate Lee
