I know Tim Cook is still the CEO, but I'm sure this was done with JT's approval. So much for Apple leaning more into hardware. They are never gonna let go for that sweet sweet recurring revenue.

If the bubble bursts why would Apple buy any AI companies?

Yet, ads are super effective. Think of the many Apple ads you watch, and how enticing those devices look. Brand awareness is all that matters. Apple isnt counting on me clicking on the ad to buy the macbook

It matches my lived experience. None of my friends use AVP. It is gathering dust. Do you have data on the contrary that AVP is growing gangbusters (like say, Macbook Neo?)

This is such an interesting take. Thank you.

Ads dont need click to be effective.

Isnt the title a bit dramatic? I remember reading you can still install apps but you just need to click a few buttons.

Why so? Care to elaborate?

So? Every iPhone that people buy gives direct money to Apple, centralizing their power. This means, they get to dictate what apps can / cannot run on the device. So what? Nobody is forcing anyone to buy iPhones. Similarly, nobody is fo

Huh? Why are you railing against Google? Because of YouTube? How's Google Search making you addicted to screens. At this rate, you'll hate Apple for making iPhones so damn good, or Starlink for giving really good internet access.

I was told that Apple was playing 4D chess when they introduced Liquid Glass which is the design language of Vision Pro, and they were priming everyone to be a world with only VR glasses.

This is such a narrow take, and doesnt match human progress at all. When cars were being built out, did we cry saying "Cars are flattening mobility. We could run, and jog and stroll and now with mechanized boxes, we have given our ways

It wasnt clear from the blog so I'll ask here. Where does the money go? The post refers to providing tickets to underprivileged attendees, but is that 100% or ony some part of it? Where does the rest of the money go?

Apple have had Siri for decades without any meaningful movement. If you think Apple is suddenly going to get better, that's just wishful thinking. Apple neither has the expertise nor the capability to do any of that. They'd hvae d

Apple's reality distortion field is really really strong. People love to claim Apple is doing 4D chess, when in reality Apple has certain strengths but AI is anything but. Which is why they were completely caught offguard with botched

Your linked comment argues the opposite. > Won't be surprised for the re-introduction of Xserve again but for AI. This means, Apple is gonna spend a lot of money standing up data centers (CapEx). And the article in question is essen

How do you rate Vision Pro? It was not the first one, but it was certainly the best one. Total dud though, while Meta Ray Bans are selling like hot cakes (irrespective of what you think of the company)

This is very disappointing. People look upto Apple for standing up for what is right (the FBI incident) but then it is hard to ignore all the other ones (Gold plaque for Trump Government, Chinese shenanigans ..)

I feel bad for adguard and the likes. LLMs have sucked the air out of capital and mindshare from privacy and ad-blocking, and the likes.
