Craig Federighi ignited Apple's AI efforts after using Microsoft's Copilot
blastdoor said:nubus said:blastdoor said:The quote that resonated with me from the WSJ article is that Apple can do pretty much anything they set their minds to. I think that really is the bottom line. Apple has competent management, smart employees, and practically limitless financial resources. When you have those things, you can do just about anything (within the laws of physics)
Jobs made Apple the most valuable company in 2011. Cook has moved Apple down to #3. It has been a decade of iterative upgrades from Apple with AirPods and M-series being the stars.
Xerox, IBM, and Intel all eventually had problems with #1.
Apple lost a step after Steve Jobs left, but nobody else has Steve Jobs, either. Cook is better than most CEOs out there. Comparing him to Jobs is pointless -- nobody is Steve Jobs. -

some people and companies are visionaries, some are not…. No offense -

Apple's iPad is still showing the world how to do tablets, 15 years later
I still struggle with my iPadPro. I find that it is not capable enough to be taken on even short work trips, and not small enough for mundane tasks like scrolling Insta, reading recipes etc. I use it almost exclusively for note taking and annotations in PDFs using the Apple Pencil. I feel there is much more that can be done by integrating the Pencil more intuitively, for example drawing Keynote presentations. To me, the Pencil is the main differentiator but it's not taken to its full advantage.
What would be "magic" is if I could drag a doc in a macOS file onto an iPad screen and it would "magically" appear in the PadOS app to allow me to do annotations, insert pictures taken with the camera, etc, and then allow me to drag back onto the Mac. -
