Unless Apple figures out AI software execution and opens up their walled garden a bit, their hardware edge won't matter.

In 2020 I could write audio apps that worked incredibly well on a Pixel: despite LLMs! I still can get Siri to put tasks in the right todo app 70% of the time.

I updated to iOS 27 beta hoping something had changed, but nope: the biggest change is a massive black orb search bar.
