With the VisionPro hype already dead (maybe forever?), bad or tasteless iPad ads, purposeless updates to iPad, Apple dropping their car project, and reaching out to OpenAI or Google for AI services … it certainly feels like it to me. They’ve at least run into their limitations recently however much they want to find the “next iPhone”.

With the VisionPro, I always thought it’d flop and so predicted that it’d be the end for Cook. I’m still holding onto that prediction.

    Well yeah it was a moot point when they were upgradeable.

      And you could argue that they were only upgradeable because they hadn’t at that point, figured out how to make it not.

        Certainly soldering chips to the motherboard wasn’t an unknown technology to apple in 2007?
