    Maybe I’m being overly optimistic, but I think the lack of big AI acquisition could be a sign that Apple feels confident in its current progress.

    I think they’re being overly optimistic about how informed Apple’s leadership actually is; it’s not like it’s uncommon for C-suites to be, well… to put it politely, uninformed about the actual status, usefulness etc. of some feature, because of the thermocline of truth (which isn’t just an IT problem, in my opinon)

      Tim Cook gifted a 24-karat gold plaque to dear leader just this week to demonstrate how on board Apple is with Trump’s agenda.

      To say Apple’s leadership is uninformed is putting it lightly.

        Oh absolutely no disagreement there; even “fuckwits” would be a vast understatement
