  • Meta lured AI exec away from Apple with blockbuster $200M pay package

    danoxdanox

    After the disaster that was the whole Metaverse, this just smells of desperation. Disaster is being generous, did anything come of the Metaverse other than the announcement? Anyway, so they are buying all the talent they can get but what is the vision? Their existing platforms, Facebook + Instagram, have become overrun by AI slop. So the plan is to make more slop creation tools? You can't hire your way into great products, you have to have an idea of what you are going to do. Zuck has proven that he isn't the idea guy, everything he has was stolen or purchased. 
    Compared to the commercial success of the Vision Pro?

    The bottom line is Apple selling Vision Pro at a lost I doubt it, it does not matter what your marketshare is. The only thing that counts is whether or not you make a profit on what you do sell, Apple, since the return of Steve Jobs learned that being profitable on what you do manage to sell is more important than going for marketshare and losing money in the process. Apple is still in a very good position in comparison to their competition at the end of the day. The C2 modem, R2 and the M5 processors are just around the corner. 

    Does that make Apple a buy, sell or hold? When you look at them in comparison to their tech competition?

    Hmm, who could have guessed interfering with law enforcement efforts would be illegal? It's no different than attempting to block a police vehicle doing its duty to protect Americans against those who would do us harm. You know… gang members, drug dealers, convicted felons, cartel thugs, human traffickers, and so on.

    And let's call out the specious idea that Ice Block is no different than a radar detector or warning drivers of a speed trap. A speed zone warning is an alert to POTENTIAL law breakers. Ice Block interferes with police efforts to apprehend individuals who have ALREADY BROKEN AT LEAST ONE LAW. Do you see the difference? Well do you?

    Pardon me for using logic and pointing out the obvious. Now go ahead and hurl the Leftist phrases you learned from CNN.

  • Apple buys two firms to improve Apple Intelligence, Apple Vision Pro

    danoxdanox
    Nothing unusual Apple over the years have bought companies (usually small) to support existing ongoing projects within Apple. They leave the blockbuster (buying something just to buy) acquisitions to Microsoft, Google and Meta.
