Apple is a complete disaster. Like Tesla, it is now only operating because of tariffs on China.
No one can use the iPhone 15 and use the flagship of Xiaomi or Huawei and conclude the iPhone is better. It is simply not better. And the Chinese flagships that are the competitors to the iPhone are around half the price of an iPhone.
Exporting the manufacturing of American goods undermined American ingenuity. Henry Ford went out into the factory where his cars were made every day. Innovation is tied to manufacturing, fundamentally. Separating design from manufacturing was stupid and ridiculous.
Furthermore, Apple and Tesla and the rest of the “American” companies are now de facto Indian companies, and Chinese people are simply smarter and more competent than Indians. White people could compete with the Chinese, but there aren’t hardly anymore white people in Silicon Valley. It’s all just Indians.
American tech companies want to save money by hiring Indians, then they lobby the government to block Chinese imports because their Indians can’t compete with the Chinese.
The Chinese Android forks are now just as clean as iOS. Seriously. Get ahold of a Xiaomi or Huawei phone and compare it to the iPhone. The Chinese phones are simply better, just like BYD is better than Tesla and Black Myth: Wukong is better than Star Wars: Outlaws. This is just the reality.
The West has fallen.
Apple is a dying company and all of the tech innovation is now in China.
The whole county has rotted from the inside out.
Apple sought to pitch the latest generation of iPhones as machines built around artificial intelligence as its biggest product event of the year, as the tech giant seeks a dominant position in the aggressive race around the technology.
The company claimed iPhone 16, the smartphone’s new model, had been designed “from the ground up” for its “Apple Intelligence” range of AI features, which include the ability to generate and edit text to fit certain tones, as well as use the device’s camera to recognize real-world objects.
Who gives a shit? No one asked for dumb gimmicks.
Why didn’t Apple finish their car?
Why is their entire business model now just total gimmick-mongering?
Has the West fallen? (It has, yes).
The event – held at Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, California – featured the tagline “It’s glowtime”, with the company’s logo surrounded by a colorful aura. Through a series of high-production videos, the company’s executives advertised a range of new hardware, and tried to highlight the ways Apple was integrating AI into its products.
“We are thrilled to introduce the first iPhones designed from the ground up for Apple Intelligence, and its breakthrough capabilities,” Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, said in a prerecorded video during the event.
Shut up, faggot.
No one cares.
We want Chinese phones for half your price.
The company’s “Apple Intelligence” system will allow iPhones to perform a range of tasks that include photo editing, using the camera to identify objects in the real world and generating text. During a segment promoting Apple Intelligence, the company promised an ability to create custom emojis based solely on prompts like “cowboy frog”.
Fuck you.
Seriously, fuck you.
Custom emojis?
Apple’s shares fell slightly, around 1%, following the event.
The new iPhone 16 also promised a “bold new palette” of colors and a more resilient display screen. It introduces an “action button” to the phone that can perform customizable activities, as well as a new A18 chip intended to provide better performance.
We’ve got enough colors, you queer.
Chinese phones have colors.
Give us the Chinese phones. We don’t want this shit.
2. Another look at Apple’s Visual Intelligence.
The iPhone 16 will have the ability to learn instantly about anything you see.
Like learning about dog breeds and getting restaurant reviews of the new spot around the corner just by taking a picture. pic.twitter.com/irNioarvbb

4. Apple Intelligence can also find old photos and videos for you instantly.
Just describe the photo or video, and Apple’s AI will find it for you.
This even works for specific time stamps within videos! pic.twitter.com/QIYa4vso1f

6. With Apple Intelligence, you’ll also never send another misspelled word again.
Apple’s new Writing Tools are available everywhere you type and can rewrite emails, notes, and more.
When words aren’t enough, express yourself through AI-generated emojis and images. pic.twitter.com/uiLcqMFXio

8. Oh, and Apple mentioned both Google and ChatGPT specifically.
Third-party tools are easily accessible via the new Camera Control button.
Just tap and select ChatGPT to send an image, question, or request. pic.twitter.com/rgAZaBDkSg
