Look, the MacBook Neo is a fine machine for building apps. And yes, I am utterly surprised
I am talking about apps with a generous dose of AI wizardry happening in the background.

In a span of just one week, I have built a full-fledged Android app for my Galaxy Z Fold 8 foldable phone, three Mac apps, and an iPhone app. And here's the fun part. The entire journey of creating these apps actually started on a phone, jumped to my MacBook Neo, compiled just fine, and ran flawlessly, without making me want to tear my hair off. The latest example? 

It built my calendar-clipboard hybrid app in Terminal within 20 seconds, and an on-device transcription app with a retro look in roughly 15 seconds. I used to think building desktop software would have me burning the midnight oil. The MacBook Neo did it in less time than I can pour myself a can of soda and take the first sip.

The researchers ran three randomized experiments with 1,222 participants who were given math and reading-comprehension tasks. AI helped them perform better at first, but their performance tanked once they had to solve the problems on their own.

Microsoft wants Copilot Notebooks to handle the work that comes after an AI answer
Built-in Office editing gives users somewhere to revise what Copilot produces

Microsoft is bringing Office editing into Copilot Notebooks through its Frontier preview. Users can work on Word, Excel and PowerPoint files alongside their project references, making changes themselves or asking Copilot to handle them.

Generating a report or presentation with AI still leaves someone responsible for getting it ready to share. The October update puts editing tools where that work begins, though having a document neatly formatted doesn’t make its contents correct.
