Tim Cook will have felt that he wanted to deliver this AI milestone because it's been a misfire.
It's been a rare example of a misstep from Apple.
And I think, based on what we saw announced,
Obviously, we have to now use it hands-on.
And given that they've made some mistakes in the past, I'm reserving a little bit of judgment.
But let's take them on face value that they have done this.
I think he will feel right.
Well, I'm leaving that in good shape.
And of course, we look forward to September where we're going to see a brand new iPhone, potentially a folding iPhone, which will be irrespective of the fact that it's not a new concept.
When Apple delivers something like that, it's a big moment.
Yeah, and he's a hardware guy, right?
So that transition, and Tim Cook could have said, well, I'll wait for that and then I'll go.
But actually he's saying, I'll get this difficult thing out of the way, Apple intelligence and the Siri update, and let's hope we can get that over the line.
And then September, we'll have all these new products.
Everyone will be all gooey and excited.
It'll be a big moment.
And John Thomas will have that opportunity to be the guy on stage to go, look, here it is.
And that plays back, actually, just a small comment on that.
All the discussion we had about these challenges with government and everything else, where has Tim Cook absolutely excelled?
It's been in those elements of interacting at these high-level engagements with governments and political leaders and other companies and those sorts of things.
