Command-line tool quickly removes Apple Intelligence from macOS 27

Ars Technica 1 week ago 6 ● 3 sources

RemoveMacAI was released as a command-line tool to let macOS 27 users disable Apple Intelligence in a fully reversible way. The models use about 12GB of storage, and can exceed 30GB depending on what’s installed. With no built-in toggle in macOS 27 Golden Gate, users now have a simpler method to remove the AI model files and reclaim disk space.

Free Tool Strips Apple Intelligence From Macs and Frees Up 12GB

Trending Topics 1 week ago 29 ● 3 sources

RemoveMacAI removes Apple Intelligence models from Macs on macOS 27, so users who do not use Apple’s AI don’t have to keep the downloaded models. It can free up about 12GB of storage by deleting those models. Disabling individual features no longer prevents the models from occupying disk space, but after running the tool those features and related services stop working and the storage is reclaimed until macOS downloads the models again.

New agent skill: Amazon SageMaker optimized generative AI inference for your coding agent

Amazon Web Services 1 week ago 43

Amazon introduced the aws-ai-ml skill for the Agent Toolkit for AWS, which lets coding agents optimize and benchmark Amazon SageMaker AI generative inference and generate SageMaker Python SDK v3 code. The setup can take you from zero to a working conversation in 10 minutes. After installing the skill (or using a preconfigured SageMaker Studio space), agents can run endpoint load tests and produce ranked, code-ready deployment and performance recommendations instead of leaving engineers to pick instances and settings manually.

Agentic retrieval with LangChain and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases

Amazon Web Services 1 week ago 18

LangChain support for Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Bases showed that single-shot retrieval can return topically relevant chunks that still omit evidence needed for multi-part comparative questions. With numberOfResults set to 5 for a question containing 6 sub-intents, it covered 4 of 6, while setting it to 10 covered all 6 but with duplicated and unused coverage. Using Bedrock’s agentic retrieval adds a planning loop that breaks the query into sub-queries, checks whether it has enough evidence, and runs additional searches when it does not.

IrisGo for Solopreneurs

Product Hunt 1 week ago 36

IrisGo launched an AI operating system for Windows and Mac that automates everyday workflows across applications using Watch & Learn. The beta is free at launch. This changes how solopreneurs set up repeat tasks by demonstrating them once and re-running the resulting reusable workflows with new inputs.

Review

Product Hunt 1 week ago 21 ● 2 sources

A Git code review desktop app launched today for reviewing Git branches and GitHub pull requests with line comments held private until publishing. It adds AI reviewers you can connect to using OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OpenRouter, or local via Ollama. Reviews can be split across multiple models so you can see which rules each one checked and retry only the missed items.

Menlo’s Investment in Factory: The System That Builds Software

Menlo Ventures 1 week ago 27

Menlo Ventures announced an investment in Factory, a platform meant to autonomously automate the end-to-end software lifecycle for enterprise teams using coding agents. The coding market it targets has grown from $550 million to more than $30 billion in two years. As a result, Factory expands its enterprise “software factory” approach—governance, a shared knowledge base, and model-agnostic deployment—to speed up shipping from days instead of quarters.

Appto

Product Hunt 1 week ago 14

Appto launched as an iOS app factory for Macs that uses an AI subscription to pick profitable app niches, generate the app, create the App Store listing, and submit it to Apple when you choose. It says one non-developer shipped 10 apps with the service. After launch, it shows live sales, answers reviews, and tracks keywords with suggested fixes.

Equs launches a personal AI platform with private storage to give users greater control over data

SiliconANGLE 1 week ago 26

Equs Inc. launched Equs X, pairing a personal AI assistant with user-managed private storage to keep information access under the customer’s control. The company said the model reads nothing unless the user allows it file by file using an access toggle. Access can be revoked immediately, and the AI keeps what it learns in the user’s private storage instead of on the provider’s servers.

The listing shows it launched today with 7 followers. It changes the workflow by automating the missing parts of your categorized data and routing uncertain answers back for your review.

Why don't more developers “use the platform”?

Read the Tea Leaves 1 week ago 7

The article argues that developers do not consistently follow the “use the platform” guidance because history, familiarity with packages, documentation patterns, and personal enjoyment of building custom solutions all make rolling your own feel more practical or rewarding. It cites that Safari’s browser update cadence is about 7 times per year. It predicts AI coding could both reduce userland code by steering toward platform APIs and increase duplicated, over-engineered code if agents skip existing helpers and rely on first drafts.

ruOS

Product Hunt 1 week ago 10

ruOS launched a private cloud desktop that includes an AI team to handle tasks like research, writing, and code from your browser. It offers ruOS Lite free to try in seconds with no sign-up. As a result, users can start work immediately across devices with persistent files and AI memory, and power users get a Linux environment plus an MCP server for LLMs to control it.

An open-source tool lets you delete 12GB of Apple Intelligence data on macOS

The Verge 1 week ago 27 ● 3 sources

RemoveMacAI, a new open-source command-line tool for macOS, removes locally stored Apple Intelligence assets and turns off Apple Intelligence features. It deletes about 12GB of Apple Intelligence data. Since macOS 27 removed the single Settings toggle, the tool replaces it by handling roughly a dozen related settings (including ones under Screen Time) to reclaim storage.

Postquel

Product Hunt 1 week ago 14

Postquel is a fast, native PostgreSQL client for macOS that includes an AI assistant connected to your existing Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor account. It is free and open source, and it can only read your real schema while suggested changes wait for your dry-run approval. The result is that database changes are proposed with AI but applied only after you confirm them.

iphone-use

Product Hunt 1 week ago 39 ● 2 sources

iphone-use launched a system where an AI agent controls a real iPhone by reading the screen as text and performing taps, typing, scrolling, and other actions via WebDriverAgent. It includes a 21-tool MCP server for Claude Code. As a result, automation can replay completed tasks as flows without repeatedly involving a model, while unsupported actions return an “unknown” status and some blocked apps show wireframes instead of screenshots.
