For this comment, I want to be absolutely clear that I do not give a shit about AI, and that it in no way factored into my decision to buy this iPhone 16 Pro Max.

With that disclaimer out of the way:

I very much look forward to a class action lawsuit. Apple advertised specific features as coming ‘very soon’ and gave short timeframes when asked directly. And they basically did not deliver on those advertising promises. Basically, I think there’s a good case to be made here that Apple knowingly engaged in false advertising in order to sell a phone that otherwise would not have sold as well. Those promised AI features WERE a deciding factor for a lot of people to upgrade to an iPhone 16.

So, I’ll be looking forward to some form of compensation. It’s the principle of it.

I really hope this goes somewhere.

Not because I have any sympathy for the shareholders, mind you, fuck absolutely everyone involved. But I think it would be very funny to make Apple prove in court that AI is such dogshit it would've hurt the product more to implement it than not.

Apple could have just...not gone for AI at all, they're now in an awkward spot where they know it would make their product worse to implement it, yet they promised anyways

Siri still struggles with toggling my lights with voice commands, after nearly 8 years of tearful screaming at my HomePod.

I want to see 1 Infinite Loop transformed into a giant toilet.

Apple used rigged demos and made false claims about their own technology so outstanding that their own project managers were taken aback by how far behind the features actually were vs. what was pushed. There's already informal documentaries on the massive internal disconnects within Apple that have lead to poor product testing and stagnation.

Instead of focusing on battery life, they focused on some dogshit hype product that no one uses and no body asked for.

Apple professional management have run the company down with their many foolish decisions. Feels similar to how Microsoft became worse annd worse after XP.

I hope this is the beginning of the end for AI.

Let's face it the problem is mostly the people. If AI was as super duper as claimed to be it would be able to construct advertising that makes everyone go: 'Yeah, I have to have this, it's useful, ethical, the bees knees really. '

The little advertising that still makes it over my thresholds is bad to abominable and of that what registers for me has the opposite affect it intents - I go out of my way to avoid it.

Based shareholders

Was Apple Intelligence a fiasco?

All the shareholders of AI progressing companies should do this.

Apple will be pissed at you now shareholders! Why would you do such a thing? sue them? really ? Apple is a good company, would never do that! /S

I think Apple is going to have to release Safari for Windows and Linux to use new users as guinea pigs.
