A new Chinese AI app tops the App Store, but its meteoric rise could be short-lived
Once again the Chinese have upended the market. This time with AI. The whole Western model has been debunked.
Kind of reminds me of the 1990s when Oracle and other big name tech titans committed to spend trillions to create the information superhighway with the mantra the first and best would control it. When a little canary in the coal mine tweeted 'hey we have just such a model an it costs nada' it is called the internet and it was invented in the 70s as ARPANET bringing the whole proposed model crashing down. And the rest is history as they say.
The reason that the Western model is unwieldily is the gargantuan amounts of data and the nuclear processing power required to deliver even a smidgen of info that it becomes like the Russian wristwatch: a clunky face with a car battery required to run it. Not to mention the fact that the smidgen of data is woefully inadequate and wrong most of time.
China is the future: manufacturing, EV and now AIs.

25 years of Apple's innovation in selling technology
I was intrigued by the article headline. But then I saw who the author is in the byline and decided this was going to be another encyclopedia of the world Part I and gave it a miss.

Apple's 2025 iPhone 17 Slim may be the first big redesign in years
Hopefully Apple will finally get around to fixing the God-awful keyboard instead of wasting more time on camera, camera, camera, camera. Apple may want to consider that the vast majority of us are not so narcissistic that we spend all day, every day taking pictures of ourselves. What we do is text and talk.
