WARNING: Oracle's AI obsession could mean higher prices and worse support

Mitoo Bobsworth Silver badge

A.k.a -

How to dig your own grave. Anyone still buying the A.I. sideshow is flushing their money down the drain, not to mention any ethical or humanitarian pretence they had left. As usual, what started as a halfway well intentioned notion has been hijacked by naked greed & unbridled self interest.

Apple signs meaningless deal to make some less-important parts in America

Mitoo Bobsworth Silver badge

Damage control for Apple's extortionate brand identity margins.

Getting Trump to understand tech profit margins, especially when it comes to a brand like Apple, is like explaining card tricks to a dog. Pretty sure they would be better off in the long term by just paying him off now.

George wasn't out by much...

Tesla board wants to grant Musk $1T in stock, Norway wealth fund says nope

Apple have been missing the mark with their iThings for a while now - they no longer have Mr Jobs' knack for nicking good ideas & applying his 'reality distortion field' to them. Now they're mostly a reiteration of past glories.
