Sending lots of love to the Apple community on my last day as CEO. My title changes tomorrow, but the love I have for the Apple community never will. Thank you for being a constant source of inspiration. My gratitude is endless, and I’m excited for the next chapter!
XBOX CEO Asha Sharma says that gamers want physical media, so they are announcing when you purchase a game you get both
They are keeping physical discs, and when you buy one it will come with a digital entitlement
How it will work:
- Put the disc in an Xbox that has a disc drive
- Launch the game
- Claim a digital license on your Xbox account
- After that, you can play the game without putting the disc in, the disk will still work like a normal game disk
The digital license is tied to that specific disc, not permanently locked to you forever
If you sell or give the disc away and the new owner inserts it and claims it, the digital license moves to their account and comes off yours
This is the way it would be. Getting both physical media and digital media that you can own and sell
Launch is with 1,000 games and more coming later
@DeryaTR_ The fact that Apple’s legal team is costing so much let winning so little in the last two decade is real. But the IP theft from OpenAI is absolutely real as well.
This.
Tim fired him because of Jony Ive, whom himself left Apple after a few years
Apple never had the same level of software quality after Forstall left.
@markgurman This dude should’ve been made CEO way back when. A mini Steve in a lot of ways; he had the vision, the rizz and most importantly the taste to see Apple through for decades to come. I bet Tim Apple saw him as a threat when he decided to can his ass back in 2012!
@pitdesi Apple “OpenAI stole our IP and trade secrets”
Sam Altman “Apple emailed the wrong person at OpenAI so they didn’t contact us at all! So it’s alright for us to steal their IP”
@pitdesi Retweeting OpenAI’s PR spin to look Apple look bad doesn’t excuse the fact you don’t understand that there was IP theft in the first place and it does not even matter even if they “contacted the wrong employee” at OpenAI.
@ajrgd Now they are running out of time to push hardware out they resort to IP theft, and when they got found out they ran a lame PR spin to make Apple look bad.
@ajrgd OpenAI is just a petty company run by one sociopath. They partner Apple thinking there’s a lot of money, when there’s no money they got angry and threatened to sue. When the COO they hired spoke bad behind Sam’s back she suddenly “quits due to health reasons”.
@durov When Telegram is the most popular app for illicit and illegal stuff in most of the countries it operates in you have got to be more proactive in policing Telegram.
@durov Because you stop the bad thing from happening first before checking that it’s safe to restore.
Not wait to check if said bad thing is really bad before acting.
OpenAI must be really nervous about Apple’s trade secret theft lawsuit because this silly attempt at PR spin is nonsensical.
OpenAI is relying on the classic “hey, look over there” strategy. Try to get people to ignore Apple’s allegations by having them instead focus on a clerical email issue and other mundane issues that have been negatively spun by OpenAI.
Also, shame on tech publications that have been doing OpenAI’s PR work for them, publishing some of this stuff weeks ago as if they discovered the information using their investigative skills. Reality is they just passed on what OpenAI PR was telling them.
In the coming weeks, be careful of more PR attempts from OpenAI to use the press to spin this lawsuit as positive as possible for OpenAI.
