I actually think otherwise, Apple is one of the few who actually seem to know what they're doing. I've seen Google, Microsoft and other tech giants acquire, merge, offer new "AI-driven" services, some being useful while most are not.

The AI has truly entered a new practical age that one must be wrong to not recognize, there has been serious research advancements which have led to the many breakthroughs we've had this last three years, but one also must face the reality: there's a hype, a huge hype and more often than not, AI seems to be a topic which is being forcefully fed to us.

I'd rather have Apple slowly take in account the AI continuous changing landscape and refine an adequate strategy by evolving their products slowly but surely, rather than throw tens of billions out of the window and see it burn.

Interesting suggestion of Apple buying Anthropic.

Personally, I don't see any company building a killer personal assistant; rather, people will be piecing together their own by integrating more and more powerful specialized agentic systems. All of this cloud-based and independent of any smartphone or AI company.
