They should probably bury him already, that seems gross.

They are still trying to find the right rune to transmute S. Jobs into that worm from the busy busy town what drove an apple car. Until then his soul may not rest, pumpkin spice must flow something something god emperor of NeXT.

They’ve been appearing for years already. Software has taken a major decline.

Doesn't matter to them, they're making more money than ever before, which is the only metric the boar cares about.

I think it's as simple as phones and laptops are mature technologies. A laptop now lasts many years. Phones don't get so radically better every 2-3 years people are compelled to upgrade.

What sort of growth can Apple now sustain? A cheaper phone to compete with Android globally?

Apple could have invested in AI like what Microsoft/Google did. But Apple left Siri rotting and is now so far behind of everyone else.

I heard rumors they were internally testing one, but I have a feeling they were caught with their pants down on that one. It was probably Google’s LLM, which I would assume is why they may now be partnering with Google for that.

Bullshit AI generated article

Nice article but I don't think they needed to reword the title five times throughout.
