No doubt the DOJ have a nice corrupt judge to do this case, just like in the Trump trial....the charges should be dismissed by any neutral judge, however I guarantee they won't be by the appointed judge

I’m kinda bewildered (more than usual) about what took so long.

The only sure thing about Apple intelligence, as they say, it's just the beginning. Next year keynote will announce a more intelligent (or less stupid) version and that will not be free anymore.

Apple is not improving the iPhone anymore, just small changes. So they need to switch to a new revenue model where you have to pay every month to use their phone.

If you listen well, when they announce that it's free in the keynote, there is an inconfortable feel in the voice. Just first release will be free... get ready to open your wallet.

I don't know a single person who uses Siri on a regular basis.

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)

Competent management wouldn't have let Siri languish for a decade or spent $1 billion a year on a failed car project.  The state of Vision Pro is still up in the air.  Competent management would have also invested whatever it takes to have their own in-house LLM to power Siri and have their own AI datacenter infrastructure ready to go by now.  Apple saw the potential of technologies like Siri when they acquired it over a decade ago.  They should leaders in this field at this point.  Instead, it's OpenAI, Microsoft and Nvidia stealing the limelight.

So you believe managerial competence of a $3T company is based on their handling of a voice assistant feature that was released over ten years ago, and which generates no income for the company?  And this “AI data center infrastructure” you speak of — what would this power, and what income would this generate?  Because Apple isn’t in the cloud business like Amazon/Microsoft/Google, so what is the feasibility of building out an “AI data center infrastructure”?  Do you think this should have been built to power Siri, which you seem to believe is the key to all opportunities in AI for Apple?  And what of OpenAI, Microsoft and Nvidia, whom you regard as “stealing the limelight”?  They are not in the same business, they are not competitors, so they aren’t even sharing the same “limelight”.

You are obviously one of the many sheep caught up in the AI frenzy.  When the bubble pops, you will realize what a fool you are.

"When the bubble pops, you will realize what a fool you are."

Speaking for yourself and about yourself.  You obviously can't see the forest from the f***g trees.
