Well Tesla just shot down the rumor as false. Let the Tesla hating commence!

Be careful what you wish for. What’s apple done since Jobs passed?

Their stock sure seems to be doing fine.

First company to $1T valuation, then first to $2T, then first to $3T.

Created the fastest phone, tablet, and laptop CPUs from scratch.

Of course they do, and they have been continuously. The PC, tablet, watch and phone market is mature so innovation comes in bits and pieces, not disruption like the early days. Innovation is not defined by how drastic or cheap the change is, as the tech press has led many to believe.

Compare IOS 3 to the current version and you’ll clearly see the innovation over the years. The seamless handoff integration between IOS, Mac OS, Apple Watch, Ear Pods in recent years has no competition In the marketplace. Apple continues to innovate with Healthcare features and the Watch.

The shift to ARM processors and resulting performance vs. power consumption and size/weight has had the rest of the PC industry chasing Apple ever since, and the M4 platform has taken that further. Have you looked at Intel recently?

Anyone who has used the Apple Vision Pro device sees the innovation there. The upcoming IOS release is going to incorporate many UI features of Vision OS. I suspect we will see new hardware devices from Apple in the next year or two that leverage what they learned from Vision Pro.

Yes, Apple has publically stumbled in recent years with the EV project and AI. Not every attempt at innovation is going to reap benefits. It’s better to have tried, failed, learned and move on than never have tried. Just ask Intel.

Turned into the highest valued company in the history of the world?

Yup, the handoff integration between devices is amazing with Apple. Even the clipboard hands off seamlessly. I can copy a link on my phone and paste it on my MacBook and I didn’t need to set that up or maintain that connectivity between devices in any way.

Not that impressive. Even Windows can do that.

I use Windows at work and Apple for my personal stuff (cuz after dealing with Windows development tools, domains and related nonsense all day, that's the last thing I want to do at home). Windows doesn't come close to the seamless/transparent Apple integration.

I guess I'm just lucky . I have no issues. The feature parity is there, and the experience is seamless in my experience. I'm sure that with the billions of supported hardware combinations there are bound to be differing experiences.

Edit: Great catch @mikehmb

I know it was a typo, and I'm not picking on you specifically ...

But saying Windows is at "feature parody" to Apple is immensely hilarious to me.

I'm going to have coffee before I made a similar mistake.

The best part of this entire story is that Tesla is now having to deny it's true they attempted to do something completely logical that would potentially help the company recover.
