Romero on Apple AI spending
If you pray sometimes, then you are just an atheist who’s also fearful. If God exists, the only coherent response is to reorganize your entire life around that fact, as priests do. AI is the same. When tech companies spend hundreds of billions on capital expenditures to add sparkly AI features to Office, Gmail, and Instagram, I only see fearful atheists — guys who don’t believe in AI but pretend just in case.
Apple is the most powerful tech company in the world right now because it’s acting according to what it believes.
