00:00:00
Something that I think is interesting
00:00:01
and relevant particularly to Grock 4
00:00:04
being the best product is the best
00:00:05
product doesn't always win in
00:00:07
technology.
00:00:08
No. Betamax. Yeah.
00:00:09
In sports they say defense wins
00:00:12
championships and on the internet
00:00:14
distribution wins championships and Gro
00:00:16
4 has formidable competitors with lots
00:00:18
of distribution. And so from an
00:00:20
industrial logic perspective, something
00:00:22
that I think makes a lot of sense,
00:00:24
particularly since OpenAI bought Johnny
00:00:26
Ives hardware startup, which will place
00:00:28
them into competition with Apple at some
00:00:30
point, is XAI and Apple are natural
00:00:33
partners. There's been a lot of news
00:00:34
about Apple thinking about buying
00:00:36
Perplexity or Mixrol, but that's just a
00:00:38
band-aid. Those companies don't get
00:00:40
Apple what they need. And I think there
00:00:42
is solid industrial logic for
00:00:44
partnership. You could have Apple Grock,
00:00:46
Safe Grock, whatever you want to call
00:00:48
it, so that Apple feels comfortable and
00:00:50
that probably also helps Grock in the
00:00:51
enterprise. And then it also helps both
00:00:53
Apple and Google with this DOJ trial.
00:00:56
And so I think in this incredibly high
00:00:59
ELO chess match that is being played
00:01:01
between the leading labs, that
00:01:03
partnership makes a lot of sense for
00:01:05
both companies.
