I’m laughing right now, Apple is in a very good position and it was a grand plan because OpenAI, i.e. Sam Altman pitched Apple and got nothing, you cannot tell me going into that meeting with Tim Cook at Apple that Sam thought he could squeeze Apple for 50 billion dollars? Like he squeezed Microsoft?

And what about Google? They probably thought for sure when they met with Apple that they would wipe out that $20 billion yearly payment to Apple every year for the default search position but the best they could do was to come out with a measly $1 billion a year refund both scenarios sound like Apple took it in consideration and determined that it was not worth the price, that does sound like a plan (The Art of War type) when the rest of tech is going crazy over AI.
