I don’t agree with the conclusion that they should just have bought more AI chips

    All these tech giants have their own area where they are the absolute worst, and other areas where they’re not as bad as some of the others.

    Apple sucks on app store restrictions, but on the desktop OS, the respect user privacy more than Google and MS do. Google is the absolute worst on ads, tracking and using search to leverage their monopoly, but they’ve also made a ton of cool stuff, including Android. MS makes the worst piece of shit OS and forces everybody to use it while they make it worse, but I’m sure there’s also something they do right.

      Symbian and Maemo were better.

      Also Nokia was the only non-US company of these.

        Yeah, real shame Maemo never got anywhere. I really liked the idea.
