1:20 YES -- The Woz, the OG co-founder, the genuine Engineer, "I was impressed with the demos, I always am, but I still believe strongly you should try it and find out." Despite his wealth and Apple as basically his child, he's still telling the public to not fall for the hype, that real technology matters. I mean, he's positive and excited about his own company, but amazingly he's still reminding the public to look beyond the hype. Of all the original Silicon Valley tech titans from that 1970s era, The Woz is the best and most decent.
4:27 Absolutely, and just Woz taking all that hype and putting it into relation with an almost 30 years old product, the Newton PDA. I remember watching a coworker using his Newton back in 1996 on a daily basis, very impressive back then. Compare and contrast to current LLMs radicalizing us politically and socially, recommending glue for Pizza and a stone every day to keep the doctor away.
Amen! Woz is the actual engineer that made Apple's original products. The creator that was pushed stage left by the marketing salesman who had the charm & ego to grab the spotlight. I love that he is still the creative & enthusiastic, but savvy, computer user who knows that demos almost always look great, but the real world is when you try to use it in your daily human life. Woz has always been the true friend of the computer user community, and he was always about user empowerment, not a closed proprietary system designed to trap the user on a tech plantation. Unfortunately, the proprietary route won out and Woz was stiff armed to the sidelines. But those of us who were around when the Apple II came out know that Woz insisting on all those expansion slots truly empowered us to dive into personal computing and customize/innovate as needed. Thanks Woz! Much love & respect to you brother. And thanks for continuing to tell it like it is. We can always rely on you for an honest review with wise advice...
@@alanmcrae8594 Well, we know how the alternative route worked, because of Microsoft and PC manufacturers like Dell. Apple is the company it is today because of that Marketing Salesman with the Charm & Ego to grab the spotlight… Think Different. 🤔
Computerized artificial intelligence is going to help to draw for us a really thick line between what a computer can do and what humans are actually good for. Like you know we live and die, we are mortal and we've got our own perspective based on that. No computer kind of incorporates that risk into its Hey Siri responses. Poetically I think AI is going to encourage us to be more human.
I call AI (or in German KI) Textl-Mächtl… or software bot hanky-panky. Computers have never, ever displayed intelligence in any way, shape, or form. They just regurgitate what has been dumped into them. Yes, garbage in / garbage out has made major improvements, but the only thing intelligent is the human using it.
What? Hertzfeld's still alive. Kottke's still alive. Bill Fernandez's still around. Almost all the original employees are still here. Not sure what you're talking about.
@@brandonreed09 Sounds like a salesman, but actually saying the opposite, try it before offering judgement… prudently reserved, clear sign of "actual intelligence".
@@gr8dvd that would only be true if their was a money back guarantee or free trial period. Woz isn't stating either of those. It's definitely a sales tactic, don't believe the reviews just buy it and decide for yourself. It may sound innocent but it's a very common sales strategy especially for products with negative reviews.
I love Steve Wozniak, the way he is both skeptical and candid about features and the Apple strategy. When he said he wasn't impressed, this should be both read as "i know Apple can do this" and "i'm not getting impressed with the tech hype", he blames the company for the worst practices and praise it for the best at the same time. That's what makes him such an amazing guy to listen to.
The older generations are not the best at using technology but Steve Wozniak was an expert before any younger generations were even born, he is a legend.
What does it mean to pre-buy? To buy before you buy? You either buy or you don't, just like you either heat or don't heat an oven. Ever heard of the simple past? It's a thing in the English language. It means it already happened.
The interaction at 1:00 is telling. I bet the journalist rarely interacts with foreigners or rarely has been abroad. She said “so you’re impressed, safe to say”, but it was difficult to understand her. Steve asks her to repeat, but she repeats the exact same words, just louder, but still as fast.
You can tell that man is SUPER critical about the company. That's why he would be the PERFECT CEO to take over after Tim. Steve Jobs would literally call his own products garbage and demand his engineers to make something great. And guess what? Both Steves have the same mentallity: try the product yourself and then give your opinion about it. Tim couldn't hold a candle on Woz: he is honest, passionate, and a complete nerd!
The problem is that Woz never wanted to be in a managerial role. He always just wanted to be an engineer (and a teacher). He’s still technically an employee of Apple (he gets a small salary) so it’s a little strange they don’t at least consult with him on some things.
He's still on the Apple Employee Roster. Woz mostly likely doesn't have clearances to development facilities at Apple Park/Offices. Woz is simply a PR person for Apple like an influencer.
He has a ceremonial role as an "Apple Fellow" and takes home a small paycheck but does not work at their offices and likely doesn't have access to anything.
I can tell they’ve already been using Ai. Before an update, the suggested words were on par with what I was typing, it predicted what I wanted 95% of the time, but after, it’s like my phone became an idiot. It keeps suggesting things that makes absolutely no sense.
I'm sick of software and it's constant bugs and endless updates. I hate being in a digital world. Thank God we're causing a mass extinction. Keep being awesome people!
He is by far one of the most genuine people in business and tech I’ve witnessed. I’ve appreciated his honesty for years. He should be a bigger part of Apple or still be a part of Apple. The company would be better with him in it.
I think Apple has laid the foundation with their hardware for AI to work better. Just as Microsoft is now looking at new PC hardware for their AI. Apple is walking cautiously into the AI space, because they always have a more user experience focus, rather than just being first.
AI models are becoming like Search Engines, with ChatGPT being the modern Google with many people using it in their products and services. If Apple wants to capture the market, they should start developing their own AI and implement, as AI is in the early stages, before it gets to expensive for Apple to catch up. Like making a competitive search engine for Google, it’s to expensive to make a Search Engine as good as Google. These days AI coming to smartphones is like smartphones having access the internet (like Safari) from the very first iPhone. So lets see what the future holds for us!
Woz is honest with his thoughts which is dangerous for the marketing and sales team. Customers may not like his thoughts, company may fail to progress. That's why Apple needed both Steves. One is best at making things, the other is best for presenting things.
It's not mentioned anywhere on their website whether it's opt-in or opt-out. I really hope for every user's sake it's opt-in, but knowing big tech these days, it's probably on by default and very hard to actually turn off. This one's slightly better than Microsoft's version, but still pretty terrible from a security and privacy perspective.
It will take much more than Apple announced they have added, or "come up with". All they did was announce they are using ChatGPT and an image generator, just like Google, Microsoft and Meta announced months ago. So much for Apple innovation.
It's hard to believe that Steve Wozniak, the co-founder of the second wealthiest company in the world, is not a billionaire. The man should have kept his shares.
Even without share of Apple and becomes a billionaire, he, as co-founder of Apple, still can make himself Billionaire in dozen other way if he wants. The key is, he doesn’t want. He is happy with his life and life style as millionaire. He is not greedy like most other people.
@@Spacer-l3jso you are saying he knew at the time of selling his shares that apple would one be worth $3 trn(and growing almost forever) but still went ahead and cashed out...but someone like Steve Ballmer took all that risk and stayed on through thick and thin not out of passion for tech but for money?? To me the act of cashing out feels like his priority was always money
He camps out for the new iPhones outside the Apple Retail Stores like everyone else, which showcases his personality. Plus he still gets compensated by the company.
I started using IPhone just one year ago due to work. Siri was/is the biggest disappointment for me. I can barely use if for anything reliably other than setting an alarm.
I feel amazed to know that this Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs created the most valuable company, starting from a garage with no automatic machines all by themselves.
It's hard to believe that AI has progressed so fast that most of the pioneers of the AI revolution are still alive and active in the community. The Woz was there at the very beginning.
Simplifying the interface would be a great benefit. Rather than a patchwork of different apps and screens, just the voice interface to state what you want and perhaps clarify some. As long as it doesn't deteriorate into a voice equivalent, where you have to navigate verbally through a maze just like today, just aural instead of visual.
I mean, to be fair, Apple has been on that train since the early 2010s at least, since they added dedicated acceleration for it all the way back 7 years ago to all of their devices. It just took them until now to really overtly promote that they were using it.
There’s some weird numerological coincidence at 2:50 in this video, Apple stock is down by Pi, to 2 decimal paces, but if you include the % numerals, that is Pi to 5 decimal places 🤯😊
The last sentence was the reason for me buying Apple products in past. Currently it‘s just copying something on one device and pasting it to another. I‘m looking forward to getting more reasons in future. 🤩
