Double digit? I live walking distance to Apple HQ and there’s not exactly a lot of people in the shops and cafes with Android phones and you practically never see someone pulling out Google pay at a register. Whereas I’d wager more than ha

I also have a fairly expansive vocabulary and talk about esoteric technical matters on my phone frequently. As far as I can tell Siri was trained on 8th-grade level text and constantly dumbs down my text and distorts the meaning.

The regression in autocorrect is also nuts. It seems to aggressively modify grammar to the point of regularly changing the meaning of what I’m writing. It’s like a CS undergrad project where they went too hard on Markov chains.

There’s a third perspective, largely unspoken: organized crime is a valid use-case for crypto and it will likely remain so. Even if all “legit” CEXs went bust you’d still have a path for cross-boarder transfers of value that can be exchange

These CEO speeches and hang wringing seems more of a concerted effort to stop open source and protect their proprietary approaches than any actual concern for humanity. “Only we can be trusted with this please forbid anybody else from touch
