…your iPhone can’t recognize your face until you’ve had your morning coffee.*
* Couple of clarifiers:
1. Yes, this happened to me — this morning as a matter of fact. Rolled out of bed, tried to use Face ID to open my iPhone, failed twice. Then I made my coffee, and just as the caffeine made my eyes go ping!, I tried to open my mail again, and this time my (new? improved?) face did the trick. That is not a coincidence.
2. No, that’s not me in the picture — it’s my AI-guided image of a cranky old man with bed-head, holding a coffee cup and an iPhone, done up in the style of Van Gogh. (So, maybe it’s me after all…).
