This week on TWiP, I am joined by the illustrious Mike “Sharky” James to unravel some riveting tales from the photography and tech world.

We dive into a discussion on Apple's latest MacBook Pro models powered by the groundbreaking M3 processor, heralded for its “Scary Fast” performance. The surprise didn't end there; Apple revealed that the announcement video was filmed entirely on an iPhone 15 Pro Max, showcasing its formidable capabilities.

Wrapping up, we examine President Biden's new executive order aimed at propelling the “safe” development and advancement of artificial intelligence.
