Between this and the iOS 17 standby feature, it seems like Apple likes the idea of displays showing information instead of just being black. Not really sure why they wouldn’t just make this a macOS feature though, dumb to limit this to some sort of smart monitor instead of just using the computer it is connected to.

    I just want a HomePod type device that combines being smart speaker/soundbar, Apple TV, and an AirPort(WiFi router) all in one 😞 Throw a display in it to make the Apple TV really be a TV and I will give all the money

      I want that too! “Apple Hub” type thing to be the center of the smart home. Unfortunately I assume that combining Apple TV, HomePod and router would be too niche (and expensive for consumers) for Apple to actually make.
