A couple of weeks ago, we posted a clip from a previous podcast. That clip talked about Apple’s failure to make public any progress the company has made with AI. A lot of people responded to that clip.
Apple would prefer to be the best, over the first. Not everyone wants Al unless it’s done right. I like their approach here.

It’s like you guys don’t know who or what Apple is about anymore. Apple isn’t implementing anything half baked (in their view) and they won’t go against the environmental bros.
