Munster, managing partner at Deepwater Asset Management, said he isn't holding his breath for an Apple TV. Munster said it's still a "painful topic" since he spent a lot of time looking into the Apple TV and was emphatic that it would happen. However, in 2014, another author, Yukari Iwatani Kane, wrote in "Haunted Empire: Apple After Steve Jobs" that Jobs told Apple employees in 2010 that a TV set wasn't happening. The lesson Munster learned about a company assembling a team and putting resources behind projects that may remain on the shelf continues to apply. Still, Munster's lesson didn't stop him from making a plea for CEO Tim Cook to bring the Apple TV to shelves.

Steve Jobs had apparently had mixed feelings about Apple entering the TV market before his death. Apple cofounder Steve Jobs reportedly made it clear before he died that Apple wouldn't pursue its own television set, but the company may now be revisiting the idea over a decade later. Jobs reportedly told biographer Walter Isaacson that he'd "finally cracked" how to make TVs simpler to use. In 2014, writer and former Apple beat reporter Yukari Iwatani Kane wrote in her book, "Haunted Empire: Apple After Steve Jobs," that Jobs told top Apple employees in 2010 that the company wouldn't be making a TV set. Apple's services business, which includes Apple TV+ subscriptions, has boomed in recent quarters.

That's for good reason: An Apple TV set didn't make sense years ago. But in theory, if that goes well, then maybe Apple will be more interested in chasing an Actual TV Set. Apple still sells a dedicated Apple TV box, which you can plug into any TV to transform it into an "Apple TV." AdvertisementYou can debate whether Apple TV+ is actually successful — its movie strategy seems … challenged — but it at least makes sense strategically: Apple TV+ is supposed to generate recurring monthly revenue, and Apple is all about recurring monthly revenue as part of its "services" push. A TV set — even the most awesome TV set — would be a one-and-done proposition for Apple.

Steve Jobs was a diva — and that's exactly what you want for a successful company, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt said. One such example of a famously tough genius was Apple cofounder Steve Jobs, who Schmidt said was "clearly" a diva.

Inside Microsoft's struggles with Copilot
  + stars: | 2024-11-15 | by ( Ashley Stewart | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +23 min
In September 2023, Microsoft's famously soft-spoken CEO, Satya Nadella, unveiled the company's flagship AI product, Copilot, with sweeping fanfare. Some of Microsoft's own employees and executives are privately concerned that Copilot won't be able to deliver on its ambitions. Copilot's struggles have created an opening for Microsoft's rivals, some of whom have seized on the opportunity to promote their own agendas. "Now, when Joe Blow logs into an account and kicks off Copilot, they can see everything," said one Microsoft employee familiar with customer complaints. As complaints and questions over Copilot mount, so does the pressure to justify Microsoft's unprecedented level of spending on AI.

That's how many iPhones the company has released each year since 2020, and in September, it released the iPhone 16, the iPhone 16 Plus, the iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Apple introduced the four-phone lineup because historically the company's iPhone sales have seen the strongest growth when it expanded the lineup. The company doesn't give sales figures for its individual products, and overall iPhone sales for fiscal 2024 came in at $201.18 billion. Every year since 2020, one of the new iPhone models has lagged its siblings in sales. At $899 in the U.S., it's more expensive than the baseline iPhone 16 but cheaper than the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, which have better screens.

Altman also emphasized saying no, echoing Steve Jobs' leadership philosophy.

Altman said the team tries to be "rigorous" about straying away from "fantastical dreams" or goals — a strategy reminiscent of the late Apple cofounder Steve Jobs. Advertisement"The main thing I stressed was focus," Jobs had said about his visit to Larry Page, biographer Walter Isaacson wrote in the Harvard Business Review. "The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything," the Berkshire Hathaway CEO once said.

AdvertisementWe're not in a recessionTo determine whether the economy is in recession, it helps to first define the term. Sure, the yearlong payrolls were adjusted down, but the story has largely been the same: This is a cooling but not collapsing labor market. Despite the 50-basis-point interest-rate cut by Chairman Jerome Powell and the rest of the Fed, there's evidence of additional slowing in the labor market. Since the rate cut, I've grown more confident that it will act in the face of weaker employment data. If the labor market deteriorates and the unemployment rate increases, we ought not to rule out another 50-basis-point move.

Jim Cramer scoffed at the call — warning Friday that investors who follow these sell recommendations will likely "miss the next giant move" in Apple stock. That's why Jim has found success sticking to his "own it, don't trade it" Apple mantra. Starting with Atlantic Equities in January 2020 through KeyBanc's downgrade late Thursday, the long-term trajectory of Apple shares has been higher. Apple shares eventually hit a 52-week low of $164 in mid-April. As a subscriber to the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer, you will receive a trade alert before Jim makes a trade.

Disney is no longer letting new customers sign up for Hulu or Disney+ via Apple's App Store. Disney is now telling would-be customers to pay for subscriptions on Disney's own site, instead of on Apple's App Store — though people who've already started paying for either service via Apple can keep doing that. But the App Store split does represent a rift between two longtime partners, so it's definitely worth noting. Disney's rationale is clear here: When customers sign up for Disney subscription services via Apple, Apple takes up to 15% of the monthly fees those services generate. Just like Netflix in 2018, Disney has decided that the services Apple offers through its App Store — the ability to market to and bill a giant installed base — aren't worth giving up a meaningful chunk of revenue.

Tim Cook learned a lot from Steve Jobs in the 13 years he worked with the late Apple co-founder. Cook was particularly "enamored" with one specific skill he learned from Jobs, he said: "Not to be married to my past views. Not to be so proud you can't change your mind when you're presented with new evidence in things. Cook went on to call Jobs' willingness to change his mind on any topic "a brilliant skill" — and one that's less common than you might think. "People who are right a lot, they listen a lot, and people who are right a lot, change their mind a lot."

Matthew is serving a 7-year prison sentence in Singapore's Changi Prison for trafficking meth. Officials from the Singapore Prison Service say they encourage guards to think of themselves as “Captains of Life,” helping rehabilitate the prison population. Officials did not allow CNN to visit Institution A1, where more than 40 death row inmates await the same fate. Before each execution, authorities organize a professional photo shoot in which inmates trade their prison uniforms for civilian clothes. Hong Kong’s population is around 25% larger than Singapore’s, and it does not impose the death penalty for drug offenses.

Elon Musk’s empire of misinformation
  + stars: | 2024-10-15 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
New York CNN —At any Tesla event, you have to go in expecting a good amount of smoke and mirrors. This is the company run by Elon Musk, after all — its self-anointed Technoking who’s made overpromising and underdelivering a theme of his career. ICYMI: The robotaxis, Tesla’s fully driverless vehicles that it hopes to put into service next year, were the main event. But Musk’s reality distortion field is something else entirely — hardly limited to overly optimistic timetables or pie-in-the-sky projections for Tesla’s delivery schedule. In a twist, though, X dropped Unilever from the lawsuit on Friday.

Where are Gen Z's tech founders?

So where are Gen Z's tech founders? Gen Z founders and would-be founders are stepping into a vastly different tech world from that of their predecessors — a world where launching a unicorn is far more difficult, and publicly scrutinized, than it was for the garage-band generation of Jobs and Gates. Gen Z is coming of age in an era when the same Big Tech companies are diffuse and dominant. In other words, millennial founders ran so that Gen Z founders could walk. Perhaps we won't see Gen Z founders standing before a crowd and unveiling their latest shiny products anytime soon.
