Like next week, we're going to hear from Netflix, Tesla, and Intel, just to name a few.

So make sure you guys are subscribed to the podcast and tuning in every day to stay in the loop.

In fact, you can even email us a video of yourself asking a question to the rundown at public.com.

And we'll try to answer as many questions as we can.

leading a team at Apple called Answers, Knowledge, and Information, and they were working on making Siri more like ChatGPT.

You know, Yang was a pretty big deal.

He reported directly to Apple's head of AI, John Gianandrea, but now he's gonna be reporting to someone at Meta.

You know, Meta continues to poach AI talent from every major tech company with massive offers.

According to Bloomberg, roughly a dozen senior AI researchers have already left Apple in the past few months, including the head of its foundation model group,

He also ended up going to Meta, and it looks like more departures could be coming.

Apple still hasn't figured out their AI strategy, and it's not a good look for them.

So maybe all the billions that Zuck is spending isn't really going to pay off either.

But for Apple, they've been talking about a revamped Siri for years now, and it's expected to launch in March of 2026.
