I think the issue with the vision pro was the price, no one is paying that much

Wild to talk about the fact that the Vision Pro didn't sell like hotcakes and yet at the same time not mention the insane price of the thing. If it had magically been $1K or less, far, far more people would have bought one.

bro, the main reason people don't buy the apple vision pro is not that people don't like AR, it is because it costs 4000 dollars my guy. In case you didn't know, that's a ton of money for the average person.

this is just Sam Altman confirming he has no moat and trying to build one conjuring up an ecosystem of devices

it could also mean Sam recognizes that openai can't win the research battle with Google in the long term, so in the future where the most used model IAs won't be openai's anymore, shift the business to build the best customer products that will use the other companies AI technology
