Memory prices have doubled, Macs and iPads have gone up, and iPhones are expected to follow. Ed Zitron – who writes the Where's Your Ed At newsletter, hosts the Better Offline podcast, and has been described by Politico as the AI boom's most "acerbic gadfly" – has spent years arguing the buildout driving those costs will never pay for itself. We asked him what happens to Apple if he's right. You've been calling AI a bubble since before it was fashionable.

    Famously thought Apple would release a TV and a car for like a decade. I hope he’s right but he’s got a track record.

      Not completely wrong though, Apple was working on a car for ten years but ultimately canned that project (ironically because of AI).

        They work on many projects that never release, he was very wrong about the car and tv releasing.

      How do you think the Apple TV was developed?

        The Apple TV set to box existed before the TV TV project. It launched in 2006.
