Again, though, I go back to the idea that like they're just not
matched
Not doing the other stuff behind the scenes in order to to be able to eventually sort of, you know, take over their own uh control of these AI models.
matched
Like they just don't have the infrastructure in place.
matched
There's talk that they're that they're building up data centers, that they're building out their own chips to be able to train these, but the spend isn't there relative to their peers, where it would seem like they're really taking this seriously.
matched
Now, again, maybe there's a world in which like LLMs.
matched
sort of end up being uh not the the be all end all path and there needs to be other you know mechanisms in order to and other methods of of doing AI.
matched
And so maybe Apple can sort of come in at that point and and sort of catch up.
matched
Uh but everything we're seeing right now is that that's not the case and that they'll need to at some point spend a lot more money than they are if they really want to have their own sort of you know AI that's built
matched
Yeah.
matched
Um and it's not like
matched
The the alternative is Apple has so much cash.
matched
Um they made the you know they finally made an an AI acquisition, as you and I have long talked about.
matched
But it wasn't for a no, it wasn't perplexity and it wasn't for a frontier model uh company.
matched
It was it was for interesting technology that you know, disclosure G V was an investor in.
matched
So it sounds uh, you know, where I where I previously was a partner for a long time.
matched
So I you know, I think that that's probably a savvy play, but it's a two billion dollar investment, like you know.
matched
And um
matched
They have, you know, as you noted, they they're doing record profits right now.
matched
What are they spending that money on?
matched
They're spending that money on buybacks and they're spending that money on, you know.
