This was obviously a controlled leak by Apple... it was released in after-hours on a Friday and was leaked to an Apple friendly journalist.
I think the scale of this downsizing is being underestimated. I think Apple car is dead.
- draw_down 10y agoOk. Why do you think that?
- Fricken 10y agoIt's not dead. With dollar signs in their eyes Apple went balls to the wall with Project Titan. 2013ish everyone looked at the Google car and thought 'OMG, it isn't some pie in the sky thing, this is real, we need to act now and act fast.' Remember how much hype there was around deep learning then- it seemed like it could do anything. Now Tesla, Uber, Apple and the carmakers are all figuring out just how hard a problem autonomy really is. Project Titan initially set out with a (rumoured and ridiculous) 2019 production goal. Now they're like, 'okay more like 2025 if not later', and adjusting their strategy accordingly.
- revelation 10y agoIt's dead? But it hadn't even begun yet! This is the Apple of 2016, leaking that it's killing moonshot projects it didn't ever announce. Meanwhile you can't buy a MacBook with a '16 processor..
- openingceremony 10y agoThe '16 processor is more Intel's fault than anything with late delivery on Kabylake, if new Mac's are announced at the rumoured October event I would assume they are Skylake.
