Disclaimer -- A Reminder -- June 11, 2024

Locator: 47805DISCLAIMER. 

Best quote all day, so far, by Josh: AI now stands for Apple Intelligence. Wow!

Josh:

  • put out of business yesterday, maybe a dozen or two dozen small start-ups
  • regarding NVDA -- Q: is it too far, too fast. A: no.

Steve Weiss:

  • the most negative guy on CNBC
  • hates AAPL and still buys it
  • but can't defend his purchase

AAPL: $4 trillion --

  • $1 trillion: hardware
  • $1 trillion: software
  • $1 trillion: chips (Apple Silicon)
  • $1 trillion: AI (Apple Intelligence)

Buy-side analysts:

  • racing to raise targets
  • need to readjust portfolios
  • many trading houses are not overweighted in AAPL; 
    • this could change
    • will certainly drive discussion 

That calculator:

  • clearly the "wow moment" yesterday, BUT
  • folks completely missed how revolutionary the Apple Calculator is 
  • one "app" completely encapsulates what Apple Intelligence is all about, and,
  • the M4. 

Others:

  • only 5% of current Apple users can access Apple Intelligence on their current devices -- think about that -- if I want "that Calculator and "Smart Notes" (or whatever it was called) -- and I do want them -- it's time to upgrade -- five years sooner than I otherwise would have
    • and, oh by the way, I'm gonna get an incredibly better camera
  • Apple upgrades are going to be flying of the shelf this fall, as are:
    • iPad Pros
  • the entire OpenAI "team" was in attendance, not just Sam Altman
  • the relationship between OpenAI and Apple may be different / much bigger than initially evident 
  • AI (Apple Intelligence) won't "hurt" Google 

Bottom line, one word, yesterday, WWDC24: revolutionary
