Eddy Cue, Apple's senior VP, cautioned during the Google antitrust trial that the iPhone could face a decline similar to the iPod in the next ten years due to advancements in artificial intelligence. He highlighted the challenge for tech incumbents, emphasizing that AI represents a major shift capable of unsettling established companies. Cue pointed out that, historically, many successful companies have diminished over time, advocating for innovation over stagnation. He also hinted at Apple's future direction, potentially integrating AI into devices beyond smartphones, suggesting a strategic evolution in response to changing technologies.
