It’s a bit like when Steve Jobs turned down acquiring Dropbox telling them they’re just a feature, not a product

And then they created icloud and now it makes them like $110 billion a year while dropbox makes like $2.5b. I think history has proven them right.

(Ok so $110b is all services revenue not just icloud, but icloud’s a solid chunk of that)

  • I was in the beat at the time. If you had read what pundits were saying at the time you would find countless criticism of Apple's hybris etc... Sounds a LOT like what we read today about LLMs.
