Ive left Apple 6 years ago. What exactly has his company done since?
And before that he was responsible for some of the worst hardware decisions in Apple history.
- qingcharles 1y agoIt doesn't even matter. The video on the site says it all when Sam says "This guy designed the iPhone, the Macbook Pro!" -- they're buying a brand, a legend. They can now say they have "the iPod guy" on their team. Nobody else has Jony and that's what matters.
- troupo 1y agoMatters... how? They want us to believe they are building hardware. Okay, they bought a brand. Now what? Apple spent decades building its hardware expertise on every level from industrial design to chips. LoveFrom has Ive ... and?
- qingcharles 1y agoThey want to tell their investors and customers that the iPod guy designed whatever magical widget it is they are building. That is worth the cost to them. If you're designing a piece of consumer hardware, then having what the general public consider the #1 designer in the world on board is golden.
- troupo 1y agoWell, that is undeniably true: bullshit and hype sells :)
- robertlagrant 1y agoI assume they're making a local AI widget that's like Alexa but for OpenAI.
- qingcharles 1y agoDefinitely a possibility. Also, AI glasses maybe? A pin badge like Humane? That Rabbit thing?
