   We laugh at Google being deadly behind with Gemini but is there a place that has fumbled it like Microsoft? I guess Apple comes close, but with them you get the feeling they were never in it to begin with.

      Apple "Intelligence" being behind is now being sold as a value add by the Apple fanbois.

         You can't be behind if you don't allow competition.

         I dunno about people that buy their products. But being behind on AI is absolutely a positive for their stocks.

            I dont think Apple is sleeping on AI, they are trying really hard. Look at their recent announcements - AI features everywhere.

               They are doing a very sensible approach of not trying to be the top AI researchers around, and either hiring or using commodity stuff on their products trying to find an application.

               That's what basically all big techs should have done. And Oracle too.

               Again, I have no idea if they found any good use for it on their applications, but they are the only one integrating it right.

         I buy cheap Android phones because they don't do AI.
