概要

TLDRApple, šiandien viena didžiausių technologijų kompanijų, stokoja inovacijų dirbtinio intelekto srityje ir susiduria su spaudimu, nes kitos kompanijos, pvz., Google ir Samsung, greitai diegia naujas AI funkcijas. Nors Apple paskelbė apie "Apple Intelligence" 2024 metų WWDC, jų AI technologijų diegimas atsilieka, o svarbiausios funkcijos dar nėra pristatytos. Apple tradiciškai pasirenka būti antruoju žaidėju, bet dirbtinio intelekto srityje tai gali tapti problema, nes technologijų progresas yra labai greitas. Spaudimas iš investuotojų ir naujų technologijų greitas diegimas ypač akcentuoja Apple iššūkius. Pažanga vėluojama, o nerimas dėl nesugebėjimo pristatyti veikiančių funkcijų kyla vis didesnis.

タイムライン

  • 00:00:00 - 00:05:00

    Didžiausia tech įmonė pasaulyje, Apple, susiduria su iššūkiais prisitaikydama prie naujos AI technologijos. Nors Apple anksčiau sekmingai įsidiegė įvairias technologijas, dabar jie turi susidoroti su spaudimu iš investuotojų, kad parodytų patobulinimus AI srityje. Kompanijos konkurentams, tokiems kaip Google ir Samsung, pavyko įgyvendinti inovacijas, o Apple atidėjo savo AI funkcijų išleidimą.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    Apple Intelligence, naujas AI iniciatyva, pristatyta WWDC 2024, turėjo greitą įžvalgą, tačiau vėlavimas įgyvendinant funkcijas, tokius kaip Writing Tools ir Genmoji, kelia nerimą. Nepaisant teigiamų atsiliepimų apie kai kurias AI galimybes, didelių pažadų dėl Siri patobulinimų nėra įgyvendinta ir daugelis vartotojų nori matyti realius rezultatus esamu laiku.

  • 00:10:00 - 00:16:52

    Nors Apple pastangų dėl AI atrodė kaip strateginis žingsnis, įmonė gali susidurti su sunkumais, kadangi AI nėra jų verslo modelio pagrindas. Vartotojai nori matyti realius produktus ir patobulinimus, tačiau veiklos trūkumas skatina abejones dėl Apple gebėjimo prisitaikyti ir inovuoti AI erdvėje, prisimenant, kaip praeityje kitoms didelėms technologijų įmonėms nepavyko laiku adaptuotis.

  • 00:00:00
    - Giant company is late to massive technological shift,
  • 00:00:03
    fails to adapt, falls behind and never recovers, dies.
  • 00:00:08
    That is a tale as old as time and it does repeat itself.
  • 00:00:11
    Now, Apple is the biggest tech company in the world.
  • 00:00:14
    They're worth $3 trillion.
  • 00:00:16
    They have more cash on hand than anyone can ever spend.
  • 00:00:19
    They are extremely successful in many categories
  • 00:00:22
    and they've taken down
  • 00:00:23
    many other tech companies along the way.
  • 00:00:25
    But now, the year is 2025
  • 00:00:27
    and between missed deadlines and deleted commercials,
  • 00:00:31
    it seems like even they are having some troubles
  • 00:00:32
    with an emerging technology and is fascinating to watch.
  • 00:00:38
    (gentle music)
  • 00:00:42
    So artificial intelligence,
  • 00:00:44
    you guys don't need me to say it.
  • 00:00:45
    You already know.
  • 00:00:46
    The explosion of consumer AI
  • 00:00:48
    in the past couple years has been nuts.
  • 00:00:51
    How many times have you heard
  • 00:00:52
    those two letters next to each other?
  • 00:00:53
    So suddenly, everyone for the past 2, 3, 4 years
  • 00:00:55
    has been talking a lot more about AI,
  • 00:00:58
    and two years doesn't even really sound like that long.
  • 00:01:00
    But tech moves fast. Remember Skype?
  • 00:01:03
    Remember how Skype was like the default
  • 00:01:05
    for online video calling?
  • 00:01:06
    And then the pandemic happened in 2020.
  • 00:01:08
    And then, like, two years later, everyone used Zoom.
  • 00:01:12
    How did they blow that? Like, that's how fast tech moves.
  • 00:01:15
    Now, Apple is a lot bigger than Skype was,
  • 00:01:19
    but none of these companies are immune.
  • 00:01:20
    Like, every one of these big public tech companies,
  • 00:01:23
    all these companies are beholden
  • 00:01:24
    to making as much money as possible.
  • 00:01:26
    They have shareholders, they have investors.
  • 00:01:29
    And if they don't think you're doing everything you can
  • 00:01:31
    to grow as much as possible, they're not gonna be happy.
  • 00:01:34
    So when a certain ChatGPT comes along
  • 00:01:36
    and gets a hundred million users in two months
  • 00:01:38
    and seems to prove that AI is definitely the next frontier
  • 00:01:42
    of consumer technology, well, then you start seeing a lot
  • 00:01:45
    of tech companies suddenly talking a lot more about AI.
  • 00:01:49
    (mellow music)
  • 00:01:54
    So now you're Apple,
  • 00:01:56
    and this is all happening, all eyes are on you.
  • 00:01:59
    There's a lot of pressure to show some sort of AI something.
  • 00:02:03
    Now there is some conventional wisdom that would say,
  • 00:02:04
    "Hey Apple, take a second, sit back, relax,
  • 00:02:08
    do your typical second mover thing.
  • 00:02:10
    You don't have to rush this."
  • 00:02:11
    Because there are a lot of examples
  • 00:02:12
    where Apple's not necessarily first to something.
  • 00:02:15
    They sort of sit back
  • 00:02:16
    and let someone else do the working on it,
  • 00:02:18
    and the maturing of the technology happens,
  • 00:02:20
    and then they jump in and implement it their own way.
  • 00:02:24
    So they were not first to do OLEDs in their phones.
  • 00:02:27
    They were not first to do wireless earbuds.
  • 00:02:30
    They were not first to make a tablet.
  • 00:02:32
    The iPhone itself is a perfect example.
  • 00:02:33
    There were so many other smartphones before the iPhone,
  • 00:02:36
    but they just executed on it
  • 00:02:38
    in a way that differentiated them so well
  • 00:02:40
    that people wanted theirs.
  • 00:02:42
    The thing is this second mover strategy
  • 00:02:45
    is very much a hardware strategy,
  • 00:02:47
    at least it typically has been.
  • 00:02:48
    And this AI thing is different.
  • 00:02:51
    It is very much just been these companies iterating
  • 00:02:54
    as fast as possible
  • 00:02:55
    and just moving and trying to implement as much as they can
  • 00:02:58
    with these little on-device models
  • 00:03:00
    to give people whatever useful features
  • 00:03:02
    they can come up with and just throw 'em out there.
  • 00:03:04
    So on a Google device, that looks like Circle to Search
  • 00:03:08
    and Gemini assistant and Gemini Live
  • 00:03:11
    and the Add Me camera feature
  • 00:03:12
    that lets you take two pictures
  • 00:03:14
    and fuse them together to get everyone in the group shot,
  • 00:03:17
    stuff like that.
  • 00:03:18
    On a Samsung device, that's Galaxy AI.
  • 00:03:20
    You know, they have things, like,
  • 00:03:22
    that really impressive object removal.
  • 00:03:24
    On a Windows 11 computer, that's gonna look like Copilot,
  • 00:03:27
    you know, adding an AI editor into Microsoft Paint,
  • 00:03:30
    stuff like that.
  • 00:03:31
    Now certainly, not all of this has gone super smoothly.
  • 00:03:34
    There's been plenty of weird rocky launches
  • 00:03:36
    with companies like the Recall feature from Windows,
  • 00:03:39
    got some backlash and people didn't love,
  • 00:03:41
    lots of stuff, has not been ideal.
  • 00:03:43
    There have even been whole startups
  • 00:03:45
    that were born and died
  • 00:03:47
    just trying to jump on the AI bandwagon as best they can.
  • 00:03:51
    But at this point, basically, every big tech company
  • 00:03:54
    has something that they do that they can point at
  • 00:03:57
    and be like, "All right, look. See, we do AI.
  • 00:04:00
    You can see we're being useful to our customers,
  • 00:04:01
    so you investors can relax.
  • 00:04:04
    We're on the forefront of it now."
  • 00:04:05
    So then, what does Apple do?
  • 00:04:08
    Well, same idea, right?
  • 00:04:09
    At WWDC 2024, they announced Apple Intelligence,
  • 00:04:13
    which again is, you know, just a branding umbrella term
  • 00:04:16
    for all the AI stuff they're gonna do
  • 00:04:17
    across iPhones and iPads and Macs,
  • 00:04:20
    things that involve using generative models
  • 00:04:23
    and large language models.
  • 00:04:24
    On the surface, it's kind of along the same lines,
  • 00:04:27
    a couple silly features here and there,
  • 00:04:30
    Genmoji, Image Playground
  • 00:04:32
    to just generate random cartoonish images.
  • 00:04:35
    But there have also been some useful things,
  • 00:04:37
    like Writing Tools and ChatGPT integration.
  • 00:04:41
    And then big promises of significant upgrades
  • 00:04:44
    to make Siri actually good
  • 00:04:46
    'cause it's been lagging behind and bad for years.
  • 00:04:49
    So on the surface, you know, feels right in line
  • 00:04:50
    with a lot of these other companies are doing.
  • 00:04:52
    A lot of it, kind of silly and easy to ignore,
  • 00:04:55
    especially if you're not an investor,
  • 00:04:56
    but some of it, potentially really cool.
  • 00:04:59
    I know I for one would like Siri to be decent.
  • 00:05:03
    (upbeat music)
  • 00:05:07
    So I remember being there at WWDC in the summer
  • 00:05:10
    when they announced Apple Intelligence
  • 00:05:12
    and thinking, "Oh okay, great.
  • 00:05:14
    I would like to review this thing
  • 00:05:16
    when it all finally comes out."
  • 00:05:18
    So a couple months go by, September rolls around,
  • 00:05:20
    the iPhone 16 launches,
  • 00:05:22
    and it's built from the ground up for Apple Intelligence.
  • 00:05:25
    And so it has iOS 18,
  • 00:05:27
    but it doesn't have any Apple Intelligence features
  • 00:05:30
    at launch at all, like literally none of it.
  • 00:05:34
    It's all still pending with software updates.
  • 00:05:36
    Oh okay, but at least, you know,
  • 00:05:40
    there's some betas coming up in the pipeline.
  • 00:05:42
    So a few weeks later, iOS 18.1 comes out,
  • 00:05:44
    and then it's got some of the features.
  • 00:05:46
    It's got Writing Tools, notification summaries,
  • 00:05:50
    so it's starting to have some stuff that I can test,
  • 00:05:53
    but it is missing a lot of the bigger stuff.
  • 00:05:55
    And also, notification summaries
  • 00:05:57
    kind of turned out to be not that great all the time.
  • 00:05:59
    A few more weeks go by, and then iOS 18.2 drops in beta
  • 00:06:03
    and they added Genmoji and Image Playground.
  • 00:06:09
    It also added that ability
  • 00:06:10
    to kick out more complex queries to ChatGPT.
  • 00:06:13
    So I mean, okay, it's progress and I'm glad it works
  • 00:06:16
    and people can generate cartoon images on their phone,
  • 00:06:19
    but, like, is that really the core of Apple Intelligence?
  • 00:06:22
    Have we really seen that yet?
  • 00:06:23
    I'm still thinking, no, I'm gonna keep waiting.
  • 00:06:25
    I'm not reviewing Apple Intelligence yet.
  • 00:06:27
    So a few more weeks later, we get iOS 18.3.
  • 00:06:33
    At this point, we're months away
  • 00:06:34
    from the original iPhone launching
  • 00:06:36
    built for Apple Intelligence,
  • 00:06:37
    but this time, they flipped the switch
  • 00:06:39
    on visual intelligence,
  • 00:06:40
    which I think is the first genuinely really useful,
  • 00:06:42
    interesting thing using the camera feed
  • 00:06:45
    to answer questions about your environment
  • 00:06:47
    or add an event to your calendar from a poster,
  • 00:06:50
    things like that,
  • 00:06:51
    but it also did disable notification summaries
  • 00:06:54
    for news and entertainment apps
  • 00:06:55
    because of all the mistakes it was making.
  • 00:06:57
    But there is still no improved Siri.
  • 00:07:00
    This new Siri was supposed to have
  • 00:07:01
    all this great stuff like onscreen awareness
  • 00:07:03
    and being more conversational
  • 00:07:04
    and having more in-app controls,
  • 00:07:07
    but none of that is launched,
  • 00:07:08
    and at this point, I just don't know when it's coming.
  • 00:07:10
    So I eventually just did a review
  • 00:07:13
    of all of the Apple Intelligence features
  • 00:07:15
    that are out so far
  • 00:07:17
    'cause I don't know when the rest are coming,
  • 00:07:19
    and I thought that would be helpful,
  • 00:07:20
    but at the same time, it's frustrating
  • 00:07:21
    because they promised so much, and yet.
  • 00:07:25
    (gentle music)
  • 00:07:31
    So this is where it gets kind of weird.
  • 00:07:34
    Not to get too existential, but this job that I do,
  • 00:07:37
    that we do, these tech YouTubers and tech journalists,
  • 00:07:39
    things like that, you can kind of boil it all down
  • 00:07:42
    to just going around and just doing endless tech demos.
  • 00:07:47
    Like, we just go from tech demo to tech demo,
  • 00:07:50
    and it's other people's jobs professionally
  • 00:07:52
    to give us cool tech demos,
  • 00:07:55
    and then we can point a camera at it or write an article.
  • 00:07:57
    And then our job is to, one, decide if the thing
  • 00:08:01
    that they're demoing is a good idea or not.
  • 00:08:03
    But then, two, to try to understand
  • 00:08:07
    how real that tech demo actually was.
  • 00:08:10
    That's really what it is.
  • 00:08:11
    It's just cool tech demos left and right.
  • 00:08:13
    So, like, a new product might come out and get announced
  • 00:08:15
    and they show it to us and they're like, "Check this out."
  • 00:08:18
    And part one again is, okay,
  • 00:08:20
    are these new features in this thing actually a good idea?
  • 00:08:23
    Would people want that?
  • 00:08:24
    And then part two is to try to listen to the words
  • 00:08:28
    coming out of their mouth and look at what's happening
  • 00:08:31
    and understand, is this tech demo real or staged
  • 00:08:37
    or completely fake or somewhere in between?
  • 00:08:39
    So then Apple, you know,
  • 00:08:41
    I would say is typically, they do a pretty good job,
  • 00:08:43
    like in the spectrum of how crazy things can get,
  • 00:08:45
    like they're pretty realistic about things,
  • 00:08:47
    like the new iPhone comes out on stage
  • 00:08:49
    and then they shepherd everyone to this hands-on area.
  • 00:08:52
    And then we get to point a camera at and demo our own hands
  • 00:08:56
    a lot of the new features that they just announced.
  • 00:08:57
    So in general, pretty good, but it's not always perfect.
  • 00:09:01
    Fun fact, I don't know how many of you remember AirPower,
  • 00:09:05
    but that was one of those things
  • 00:09:06
    where I remember that event.
  • 00:09:08
    They showed it off on stage, whatever,
  • 00:09:09
    and then we go out to the hands-on area,
  • 00:09:11
    and there was this single AirPower out there,
  • 00:09:13
    just one wireless charging pad
  • 00:09:15
    among all the chaos, but it didn't work.
  • 00:09:18
    So you could put your phone on it
  • 00:09:19
    and pretend it charges, but it didn't.
  • 00:09:22
    And maybe that should have been a red flag right there,
  • 00:09:24
    because, of course, as we know, AirPower never came out.
  • 00:09:27
    I think Tesla's robots
  • 00:09:28
    are another pretty recent, like, famous one.
  • 00:09:29
    We all remember that show that they put on.
  • 00:09:31
    They had those humanoid robots walking around their event,
  • 00:09:34
    interacting with people.
  • 00:09:35
    Tesla would never confirm
  • 00:09:37
    or tell people exactly what was going on behind the scenes
  • 00:09:40
    to make that all possible, but there were plenty of theories
  • 00:09:43
    about them being remote-operated or human-controlled.
  • 00:09:47
    Anyway, Apple Intelligence is one of those things
  • 00:09:49
    where they have had this slow continuous rollout
  • 00:09:52
    where the most interesting
  • 00:09:53
    and possibly most important things
  • 00:09:55
    are at the end of the rollout, but there's no timetable.
  • 00:09:58
    They're just kind of coming at some point.
  • 00:10:01
    And Apple's never demoed them for us.
  • 00:10:05
    It's really interesting.
  • 00:10:06
    John Gruber pointed this out in his piece a little while ago
  • 00:10:09
    that this could be an even more glowing bright red flag.
  • 00:10:14
    Apple has never shown these features working to anyone.
  • 00:10:17
    And, I mean, you'd think if they could demo it to a reporter
  • 00:10:20
    or YouTuber or something that they totally would,
  • 00:10:22
    they'd love to show it's almost done,
  • 00:10:23
    just, "Here's how cool it is," but they haven't.
  • 00:10:25
    And the fact that they haven't even gotten
  • 00:10:27
    to the cool tech demo part yet
  • 00:10:31
    kind of makes it feel like this is a lot farther away
  • 00:10:34
    than we think it is.
  • 00:10:35
    Now, all of this is true at the same time
  • 00:10:37
    that Apple is literally running commercials and billboards
  • 00:10:42
    and plastering Apple Intelligence all over their website
  • 00:10:46
    and every announcement, they talk about it all the time
  • 00:10:48
    to the point that you'd assume it's like the most important
  • 00:10:50
    new feature of their devices.
  • 00:10:52
    They even had to delete a commercial
  • 00:10:54
    that they made and published.
  • 00:10:56
    They had to take it back
  • 00:10:57
    because it was literally just advertising a new feature
  • 00:10:59
    of this big Siri update that doesn't exist yet.
  • 00:11:02
    It's like looking into your phone
  • 00:11:04
    and using context to tell you something.
  • 00:11:06
    That straight up didn't work.
  • 00:11:09
    - Siri, what's the name of the guy I had a meeting with
  • 00:11:11
    a couple of months ago at Cafe Grenel?
  • 00:11:13
    - [Siri] You met Zac Wingate at Cafe Grenel.
  • 00:11:18
    - Hey. - Zac.
  • 00:11:19
    - Oh, I didn't think that you'd remember me.
  • 00:11:20
    - Yeah, of course.
  • 00:11:21
    Since I saw you, I'm like, it's Zac.
  • 00:11:23
    Nobody walks like Zac. (Zac laughs)
  • 00:11:25
    ♪ I am genius ♪
  • 00:11:28
    - You know, I think it would be cool
  • 00:11:29
    if Siri actually could look into your phone,
  • 00:11:33
    into your apps and calendar
  • 00:11:34
    and actually tell you things about it, but it can't.
  • 00:11:38
    And we've never seen a demo of this
  • 00:11:40
    outside of this commercial or Apple's official videos.
  • 00:11:43
    So yeah, this disconnect
  • 00:11:44
    between how successful Apple would like us to believe
  • 00:11:48
    that they are with AI
  • 00:11:49
    and how poorly and delayed things are actually going,
  • 00:11:52
    that is the crisis on Apple's hands right now.
  • 00:11:55
    It's fascinating to watch.
  • 00:11:57
    And, you know, it's totally fine to delay products,
  • 00:12:00
    like, that happens all the time, it's actually very normal.
  • 00:12:03
    But just with AI, with how immediate it feels,
  • 00:12:07
    with it being this paradigm shift of technology
  • 00:12:10
    and all of their competitors shipping things,
  • 00:12:12
    it feels like things are moving very quickly.
  • 00:12:14
    So that's how you end up
  • 00:12:16
    with apparently internal meetings and reorganization
  • 00:12:18
    and people inside of Apple calling it embarrassing.
  • 00:12:21
    To people paying close attention to Apple,
  • 00:12:24
    I think Apple Intelligence has, from the beginning,
  • 00:12:25
    kind of always felt more like a nice thing
  • 00:12:29
    to please investors
  • 00:12:30
    more than an actually useful revolutionary set of products
  • 00:12:33
    that regular people are gonna love.
  • 00:12:35
    But now that it's so delayed
  • 00:12:36
    and the disconnect is so obvious,
  • 00:12:38
    it's never been more apparent.
  • 00:12:41
    (upbeat music)
  • 00:12:45
    Remember Nokia?
  • 00:12:47
    They were huge,
  • 00:12:49
    and then they kind of just completely missed the jump
  • 00:12:52
    to smartphones, and now, we don't think about Nokia anymore.
  • 00:12:56
    I'm sure you remember BlackBerry.
  • 00:12:57
    they were also once thought of as way too big to fail,
  • 00:13:01
    and then virtual keyboards came along
  • 00:13:03
    and BlackBerry just continued making phones
  • 00:13:05
    with physical keyboards,
  • 00:13:07
    and then everybody just moved along,
  • 00:13:09
    and now, we don't talk about BlackBerry anymore.
  • 00:13:11
    There's countless examples of huge tech companies.
  • 00:13:15
    We thought they were way too big to fail,
  • 00:13:16
    but then they failed to adapt in some way
  • 00:13:18
    to the changing tides of technology,
  • 00:13:21
    something happens, and then they're just gone
  • 00:13:24
    and we don't know what happened to 'em.
  • 00:13:25
    And so there's no way to tell the future on this one.
  • 00:13:30
    Maybe everything's fine.
  • 00:13:31
    Maybe Apple ships the new Siri in two months
  • 00:13:33
    and it does everything they said and it's great
  • 00:13:35
    and we just forget any delay ever even happened.
  • 00:13:37
    But there's three things that have been on my mind
  • 00:13:39
    that kind of make that feel unlikely.
  • 00:13:43
    So number one is just that AI
  • 00:13:46
    is just not at the core of Apple's business right now.
  • 00:13:49
    And if you're just looking at it
  • 00:13:50
    from a business perspective,
  • 00:13:51
    they make a ton of money selling hardware,
  • 00:13:54
    selling the services
  • 00:13:55
    and the things attached to that hardware,
  • 00:13:57
    and they will continue to make tons of money iterating
  • 00:13:59
    and doing all that like they usually do.
  • 00:14:02
    Financially, they'll probably be fine.
  • 00:14:03
    Like, it's kinda hard to draw a straight line
  • 00:14:05
    from Apple Intelligence is successful
  • 00:14:07
    to Apple making way more money,
  • 00:14:09
    especially when they're such
  • 00:14:10
    a privacy-focused company as well,
  • 00:14:12
    like a lot of these features
  • 00:14:13
    don't go hand in hand with that.
  • 00:14:14
    But then, two, their usual advantages
  • 00:14:19
    don't really work here as much as they usually do.
  • 00:14:24
    So like, the second mover advantage thing
  • 00:14:25
    that I talked about earlier,
  • 00:14:27
    like that's typically a hardware technologies thing.
  • 00:14:30
    And so AI being software,
  • 00:14:31
    with software, Apple's usually able
  • 00:14:33
    to just rely on their massive,
  • 00:14:35
    enthusiastic army of developers
  • 00:14:39
    to support things and give it a kickstart
  • 00:14:41
    and get it off the ground to get people using it.
  • 00:14:44
    And with this, it's kind of the opposite.
  • 00:14:47
    I don't think they're interested in this.
  • 00:14:48
    Like, just think if I'm Uber, if I'm developer for Uber
  • 00:14:52
    and this new Siri is supposed to be able
  • 00:14:55
    to reach into my app and perform an action,
  • 00:14:59
    like calling a car, so the user just goes,
  • 00:15:00
    "Hey Siri, call me an Uber to the airport,"
  • 00:15:03
    and then it does it without ever opening my app?
  • 00:15:09
    I don't actually like that very much.
  • 00:15:10
    That gives me less control.
  • 00:15:12
    I don't get to do as much with that experience,
  • 00:15:14
    even though it would be really cool for the end user.
  • 00:15:17
    But then number three, just the lack of demos
  • 00:15:20
    is like really, it's actually very hard to ignore
  • 00:15:22
    just from someone who's seen so many.
  • 00:15:25
    Remember the Bixby speaker?
  • 00:15:27
    Like all those years ago at a Samsung event,
  • 00:15:29
    they announced, the Galaxy Speaker is what it was called.
  • 00:15:32
    It looked like this little mini barbecue grill.
  • 00:15:34
    And in person, we all go to this event,
  • 00:15:36
    and then we go down to the hands-on area
  • 00:15:37
    and they had a bunch of them on display and they were lit up
  • 00:15:40
    and nobody could actually touch them or use them.
  • 00:15:44
    And then I think we maybe saw them one more time
  • 00:15:46
    at a display at CES, but then we just never saw them again.
  • 00:15:49
    Samsung canceled it. They never shipped the thing.
  • 00:15:52
    I don't think Apple wants to pull a Bixby speaker
  • 00:15:57
    or an AirPower with this thing.
  • 00:15:59
    Like, Apple Intelligence has gotten so much PR
  • 00:16:01
    and it's clearly so important to them
  • 00:16:02
    that it just feels like it's gotta get there eventually.
  • 00:16:06
    It's gotta be frustrating for them to not have the ability
  • 00:16:08
    to show it off or ship anything yet,
  • 00:16:10
    but it would be pretty cool if Siri was good.
  • 00:16:14
    But we'll very much just still have to wait and see.
  • 00:16:17
    There's still Apple.
  • 00:16:18
    They're still just gonna keep shipping new computers,
  • 00:16:21
    tablets, software, phones, the whole thing,
  • 00:16:23
    and they will continue to iterate on other stuff,
  • 00:16:25
    but this is just something to be keeping our eye on
  • 00:16:27
    for the future, especially as this whole AI thing
  • 00:16:31
    continues to ramp up
  • 00:16:33
    and as they continue to put billboards out there.
  • 00:16:36
    Share this video with someone who needs the explanation.
  • 00:16:38
    Thanks for watching. Catch you guys to the next one.
  • 00:16:41
    Peace.
