Going by Siri, they are behind competition by a wide margin.

Apple hit a plateau. I don’t think AR will be a meaningful driver of growth for awhile. Perhaps they make a big move and buy Disney.

I feel Meta is proud of showing off these prototypes but I think it just shows how amateur they’re at developing hardwares.

Is it really? India and China make up 40% of the world. Their “output” to the world is fraction of that. And that’s not gonna change due to culture.

I’d like to think of entropy in terms of randomness or rather uniqueness of elements/compounds within a system.

They will sell more than that. At least 500K. You’re underestimating Apple’s pull. Heck buy two. Save one completely wrapped. Sell it 20 years later.

To be fair, OS X was OK by 2003 but third-party softwares and especially MS Office sucked until 2007-08.

The first time I learned about OS X, I blindly bought Apple shares. I knew it would set them up for success down the road. Sounds silly now but foundation, such as OS for a computer company, matter. Although, OS X was painful for many years

To be honest, if I am building a CUDA alternative from scratch, I’d build it for Apple Silicon. Apple will have a monopoly on TSM’s state of the art.

I definitely agree state of the art is good enough for 97% of driving scenarios but they’re also not fail-safe and robust. In order for autonomous to be truly acceptable, they need to be 100x more safe. No, nearly flawless. In order to acco

It doesn’t take a lot to retro-fit roads with autonomous guardrail markers when we repave. It’s going to take a federal-level effort to accomplish this (which should have been apart of pandemic infrastructure stimulus). I strongly believe t

People said the same thing about the iPhone. Heck, they said Android will compete too. Meta doesn’t even have 1/100th of the engineering/manufacturing capabilities of Apple. It’s literally Zuck sourcing mostly off the shelf hardwa

No. Experience is very different and people can just go right into their local Apple store to see the difference. People are ignoring the fact that Apple has one of the widest and best retail networks in the world. It’s game over for Meta.

At the end of the day, Zuck is going to burn even more money on VR due to Apple. He’s going to try to compete and sink an enormous amount of money chasing something he cannot catch. This is actually very bad for Meta.

My understanding is that they were forced to open these standards and charging stations in order to get full credits for their cars. Is that wrong?

Bitcoin solves this. Sorry I just had to. I think crypto as an investable asset class is finished. SEC is sending a very clear signal here. It’s entirely the community’s fault for failing to properly manage this space. They actually earned

Anyone else notice Apple’s mention of Apollo yesterday? It probably helps that Apollo is built by former Apple guys but it gave me a good chuckle.

I see big potentials for this device with DIY contents among others. Imagine putting this on to fix your car? It can guide you through exploded views and help you pin point problems. That could be big in professional settings too. HOWEVER,

There’s no question this will be a game changer. Applications will be absolutely endless. Can you imagine putting this on and having guides on fixing homes or cars? I didn’t know it was going to be completely untethered. That you can walk a

Why didn’t they release GPUs for those PCIe slots? I just don’t get why they couldn’t do a simple thing instead of AR/VR.

Don’t think building more homes in SF would help with homeless problems. The thing about SF and CA in general is that it is one of the most desirable places to live in the entire world.

I don’t think Nvidia competition is coming from AMD. It’s way too late for that to happen. MSFT/GOOG/META will have their hands dirty now and AMD might be left watching. Not to mention what Apple has in store for the next few year

I’d really like to modernize Simcity 4. Throw some AI on it for simulation. Stable diffusion for one of kind buildings. I just realized you can do so much with AI to make old games interesting now. Who knows, maybe that will be a big trend

Do Simcity 4 next. Heck you can train it on actual buildings off of Google Maps or others like it.
