My theory that Apple are becoming Yahoo! keeps being proven true honestly. They have some massive advantages to build really incredible AI tools, infrastructure and hardware but they refuse to take it because they are fascinated by pointlessly making their UI look transparent.

The iphone is so useful they can probably ride it for a couple more decades at least. I would still buy it.

From a technology or engineering perspective, I have no idea how to work with Apple.

Indeed, the UI designers are 100% transferable to AI R&D.

It's ironic because Microsoft took their eye off smart phones to make Windows 8 transparent aqua interface

Everyone is struggling to create AI tools. And just because you don't approve of how they spend time to make their UI look "fancy", doesn't really mean much. You are not a normal user/customer.
