I mean they could make it iPhone exlclusive. If it drives sales of 1000 dollar iPhones then it might be worth it. Very much press 'x' to doubt though.

I can see that one of the authors of the guide is Ethan Mollick. He has a free substack with more AI advice. You may find his own guide very useful ( https://www.oneusefulthing.org/p/how-to-use-ai-to-do-stuff-a... ). Thi

MrBeast[0] has about 182m subscribers, and it is probably easier to get a subscriber on youtube than a user. Views are easy to inflate, I wouldn't even consider it in the same ballpark. This video[1] of Vivaldis 4 seasons has about 1&#
