An AI-powered calendar?

ā€œWhy didn’t you remind me about my 10am meeting?ā€
ā€œYour meeting isn’t until noon,ā€
ā€œNo, it clearly says 10am.ā€
ā€œI’m sorry, you’re right. Thanks for being vigilant.ā€
[and so on…]

I’d never touch anything ā€˜AI’ for my tasks and calendar. It’s the one place I don’t want automation as personally reviewing everything manually helps me memorize what I’ve got ahead.

So, Apple bought Mayday in April 2024, and shut it down. Given the string of failures to deliver ā€œApple Intelligenceā€, perhaps the tech they bought wasn’t helpful. Or may be they just wanted to get it out of the way.

I wonder who would use this? A small business that does not already use Microsoft or Google? You would need a website with a booking page to let anyone outside your network use it.
