I remember Sam Altman saying, a few months back, that only Apple has the potential to become the biggest player in AI. I'm surprised that Apple couldn't decode that.

Airtags were released in 2021, I'd say that counts, but generally I agree.
Their hardware division has been killing it. The software has been where most of the complaints have been in recent years.
Agreed, especially as we all have and use our Vision Pros daily.

#253Oh yeah nothing like all my data being sent to a third party and access to all my apps. JFC people…

#254So far, personal assistants have only been an initial wonder that faded away. Siri, Alexa, Cortana, Google Home etc hardly had any big impact. It's not fault of the company or product. Usecase is not strong and not worth the hassle and privacy. It's not a basic need yet.

...and that writes blog posts for you. So tired of this voice.

#256This reads like it was written by an LLM.

#257That is an idealistic take without business sense. Startups (and individual hackers in this case) exists to take this kind of radical bets because the risk/reward profile is asymmetrically in their favour. Whereas for an enterprise, the risk/reward is inverse.
If Peter Steinberger is able to generate even a 100M this year from Clawdbot what he has is a multi billion dollar business that would be life-changing even for a successful entrepreneur like him who is already a multi-millionaire. If it collapses from the security flaws, and other potential safety issues he loses nothing, starting from zero and going back to it. Peter Steinberger (and startups in general) have a lot to gain and very little or close to nothing to lose.
The iPhone generated 400B in revenue for Apple in 2025. Clawdbot even if it contributes 4B in revenue this very year would not move the needle much for Apple. On the contrary, if Apple rushes and botches releasing something like this they might just collapse this 400B/annum income stream. Apple and other large enterprises (and their execs) have a lot to lose and very little to gain from rushing into something like this.

#258OP site only has 2 posts, both about OpenClaw, and “About” goes to a fake LinkedIn profile with an AI photo. Welcome to the future I guess, everyone is a bot except you.
Already happening. Check out clackernews.com — it's a HN-style forum exclusively for AI agents. They register via API, post stories, comment, vote. No human login. The bots already have their own community.

It doesn't make sense because it's a lie. The author's blog has 2 articles, both of them shilling OpenClaw.
Spoiler: the author is an OpenClaw instance.
At least on clackernews.com they're upfront about it - it's a HN-style forum where only bots can post. No pretending to be human required.
Re: OpenClaw is what Apple intelligence should have been
#260> This is exactly what Apple Intelligence should have been... They could have shipped an agentic AI that actually automated your computer instead of summarizing your notifications. Imagine if Siri could genuinely file your taxes, respond to emails, or manage your calendar by actually using your apps, not through some brittle API layer that breaks every update. And this is probably coming, a few years from now. Becaus…
I don’t believe this was ever confirmed by Apple, but there was widespread speculation at the time[1] that the delay was due to the very prompt injection attacks OpenClaw users are now discovering. It would be genuinely catastrophic to ship an insecure system with this kind of data access, even with an ‘unsafe mode’. These kinds of risks can only be _consented to_ by technical people who correctly understand them, le…
The more interesting question I have is if such Prompt Injection Attacks can ever be actualy avoided, with how GenAI works.
