I think the big mistake was Apple naming the project "Titan." We all know it's bad luck to name vehicles after Titanic--especially after what happened to that submersible. 😢

Love this show and definitely appreciate it being on KZfaq now. I do wish there could have been a longer and more serious conversation about the outrage and anger directed at Google from CNBC and other outlets around the image generation feature of Gemini. It's like no one at the network understands or maybe they do but see no issues when AI generates only white people. It was really disappointing to watch it play out.

The reality is Apple is not near as inventive and innovative as people are trained to believe.

@MihneaStoian 2 ай бұрын

a PERFECT apple car would've literally been a SIMPLE crossover-sized car with a HUD that goes across the entire windshield and also transparent passenger windows/screens to do AR on that connects with the apple phones in your pocket.

@brandonreed09 9 күн бұрын

Apple has moved into the TV with the Apple TV box and the streaming service. They really should have gone further with their own full television. They still could, especially if their AR/VR goes bust.

TBH, when you do product development you often you make lo res mockups (out of cardboard, actors, etc) of your concept for others to better understand the thing you're making

Obviously wheels should be round. But they should be spheres not the current toruses. An apple car would’ve had spherical wheels, magnetically controlled, allowing omnidirectional rotation. Sliding sideways into parallel parking spots would’ve been so dope.

I love how their derangement against Elon prevents them from giving him any sort of credit for successfully building a car company (let alone an innovative one) when even Apple couldn’t even do it

They've repeatedly given him credit for this on multiple previous episodes lol. Love the ironic comment, though.

@@snowballeffect7812 Really? I haven't heard Nilay speak positively of Elon in the last 10 years, The Verge still shits out an anti-Elon article every week

@snowballeffect7812 2 ай бұрын

@@trentbosnic Oh, yeah. That's because Elon is an egomaniac who didn't earn any of his wealth through his own merits. That doesn't mean they don't see the success of Space X and Tesla. They regularly talk about how Tesla really pioneered and pushed for normalization of EV's. That doesn't mean they need to talk good about Elon, too, or give credit where not much is due. He was a great hypeman, but now he's not doing anything really useful.

@snowballeffect7812 2 ай бұрын

@@trentbosnic the same way i didn't earn my wealth lol. The vast majority of my net wealth is from investments. Elon the emerald mine owner's successor has tremendous amounts of capital access and has bought his positions on most of the companies he's on the board of. He has no patents to his name as far as I'm aware.
