All right, let's do some follow-up. Apple has decided maybe these notification summaries aren't as great as we thought, and so they're going to pause them for news and some other things in the latest betas anyway. Reading from 9to5Mac, Apple has temporarily stopped showing notification summaries for news and entertainment apps as part of the iOS 18.3 developer beta released on the 16th.

Here are the changes. When you enable notification summaries, iOS 18.3 will make it clearer that the feature, like all Apple intelligence features, is a beta. You can now disable lock screen, excuse me, notification summaries for an app directly from the lock screen or notification center by swiping, tapping options, and then choosing turn off summaries.

On the lock screen, notification summaries now use italicized text to better distinguish them from normal notifications. And hoo boy, does that look ugly to me, but that's neither here nor there. In the settings app, Apple now warns users that notification summaries may contain errors.

Additionally, notification summaries have been temporarily disabled entirely for news and entertainment category of apps. Notification summaries will be re-enabled for this category with a feature software update as Apple continues to refine the experience. All this is well and good, except I'm Really not in love with the fact that they're opting everyone into this beta software.

Did you see that as well? I don't have a link for that handy.

Yeah, I think the thing that bothers me about it is that they'll say in one breath, it's a beta. It could screw up. It's a beta. It's a beta. It's a beta. And then in the next breath, all their marketing is about it. And by the way, oh, everyone's going to use it now.

All right, Marco, you have some follow-up for us from, what is it, last week's post-show, right, with regard to CarPlay.

And since we're in neutral corner, John, apparently Honda has decided that the two EVs they were going to sell or they've talked about already are not their only offerings. What else is on the table here?

Well, I'm excited for you to buy one in the name of the show. Allison Sheridan pointed out to us that there's another entry to the suddenly very robust 27-inch 5K monitor market. I am here for this.
