They just built a trusted/secure backend to push compute to and it luckily coincided with the AI craze. They just packaged their backend as apple intelligence and exploited the situation. It doesnt look like they have anything worthwhi

This is what I have been asking people in the know too. It seems like developing this is straight forward. So not sure why OpenAI has a lead. That too with how fast things are, the gap should be instantly closed.

Is everyone now believing that AGI is within reach? This scrambling to have a non profit based structure is odd to me. They clearly want to be a for profit company, is this the threat of Elon talking?

This is only going to get worse and not better irrespective of what is shown or talked about. A 5 trillion a year industry is a golden goose of the highest order, the ecosystem will protect itself. The cynic in me thinks “they” will make it

Letting the users decide is a sure way to lose the plot on data. There are always users that will want to give away their data and so services won’t have any incentive to build services that preserve privacy or attempt to reduce user data c

Can you elaborate on this “excuse” and “exploitation” you are talking about? I am curious because I fully believe Apple really cares about security and privacy and goes to great lengths to preserve it for their users. Sure they use it as a

People just don’t want to accept simple, no drama and explanations, even more so if it means they have to accept they are wrong. This is a trait we as a species had all along apparently but manifested much more during covid. I am just amaze

Is there a real market and revenue to be made with these mixed reality headsets like Quest and AVP? If so what does mass market adoption even mean for these? I suspect the peak is not far from where we are now. Thoughts?

Trying to understand how compute happens in Quantum computers. Is there a basic explanation of how superposition leads to computing? From chatgpt, "with n qubits a QC can be in a superposition of 2^n different states. This means that Q

Had no idea they had a charging network, but does it really matter? Tesla is so far away ahead of everyone else that I cannot see anyone catching up. Even if they stop making cars Tesla can keep making money off their charging network.

Even before LLMs, I knew they are going to launch a fine grained mapping service with all that camera and POI data. Now this one is actually much better obviously. Very few companies actually have this kind of data. Remains to be seen how t

Forget about freezing pay for CEOs, they get a hike for over hiring and then subsequently taking the “bold” step of laying off people too. The revenues and stocks for each of these companies are at an all time high so the firing employees i

I think they will get there in time. They like to focus on things and not spread themselves thin. They always wanted to get the gaming market share but AI is taking all their time now.

The “format” is the UI, that is what allows them to show ads. If they are forced to change the “format” to one single explanation or answer they cannot show ads like they do now and instead change their “UI” to be like chaptgpt’s. Which als

The main reason for google search’s success is it drove traffic to websites and both had their share of the ad pie. With ChatGPT they would take a much much bigger share of the pie and so if it becomes successful in replacing google search’

This is why google panicked and did that whole reorg around AI. The fact that they felt compelled to say “25% of all code was written using AI” in their last earnings report tells us how much they are panicking. They probably realized they
