Alex Kantrowitz: 苹果在AI领域的进展缓慢，与业界其他公司相比显得落后。他们需要重新审视其AI战略，并可能需要通过收购来加速发展。此外，苹果公司内部的文化和领导力也需要进行改革，以适应AI时代的需求。 MG Siegler: 苹果的WWDC大会未能充分展示其在AI领域的实力，反而突出了其在用户界面方面的优势。我认为苹果公司在AI方面面临诸多挑战，包括未能充分利用现有技术、内部文化固化以及领导力不足。然而，苹果仍然拥有强大的品牌、庞大的用户群体和零售网络，这些都是其在AI领域取得成功的潜在优势。我相信，如果苹果能够采取正确的策略，并进行必要的改革，他们仍然有机会在AI领域迎头赶上。
