Not sure if serious.. 🤔
Absolutely… have you seen the people other companies have. Tim is a decent guy and appears to be a lot more balanced a person than Steve Jobs ever was.

His stewardship of Apple has been amazing considering the expectations on him.

I’m glad in these times that Apple and Microsoft have open minded collaborative people at their helms.
 
Must be that, as he's using it daily...
i'm glad to hear Tim is actually using his AVP daily. best chance of someone high enough up who can tell them what's good and what's not AND get things improved.

it's a paid for beta release before they work out what to trim for a mass market product.
smart move.

dont forget almost every Apple commentator bagged the iPad when announced...
and IBM never saw a need for more than a handful of computers worldwide nor why anyone would want a personal computer.
 
I think he has his break dancing stuff inside that bag… and climbing equipment to get on the roof. Seems to be his thing these days 😆

Maybe he will break dance on roof and show how durable Apple Watch screens are 🤔
 
Tim Cook trying to improve his Nike stock performance I see lol. I find it curious Microsoft’s CEO isn’t listed considering the other Big Tech guys are there

Bill Gates is there for Microsoft, he probably told Satya Nadella to stay home! lol
 


Apple CEO Tim Cook and Apple Software and Services chief Eddy Cue are attending the annual Sun Valley Conference in Sun Valley, Idaho, this weekend. The media finance conference is well-known for attracting some of the biggest names in tech.

The Sun Valley Conference has been likened to a camp for billionaires, where tech and media moguls can negotiate deals while golfing, whitewater rafting, and similar activities. Cook and Cue are both regulars at the event.

Other attendees this year include Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Oprah Winfrey, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Bill Gates, Salesforce CEO Mark Benioff, Nike CEO John Donahoe, Sony CEO Ken Yoshida, YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Disney CEO Bob Iger.

The Sun Valley event is invite-only and members of the media have limited access, so the deals and relationships that originate at the event often go undocumented.

Just a bunch of rich CEOs, trying to decide how they can make more money and screw the rest of us.
 
None of these people will hang out and have dinner at Golden Coral or a buffet Chinese dinner restaurant. To them you and I are nothing and just carbon based life forms to feed off on. These people can do so much good but nope.
Perhaps they can feast on a nice meal featuring insect-based protein that Bill Gates is developing to push on The masses of us peons.

Sadly unlikely -- a lot of the attendees bring in their own staff and supplies for this event (not joking)

About 80% of the point of this thing is just "showing up" and having others "know you were there"
(enough of a "someone" to get the invite)

It's really just a signal of status

(I live in Idaho & have frequented SV for 45+ years)
 
Tim: let me step right in. I’m an innovator baby…

Now watch this break dance

Spin, jump, spin, jump, spin, spin

Spinning like a beach ball
 
Wow... it's all about status? Seriously? With Cook who leads a very modest life, dresses modestly, and until not too long ago lived in a townhome? And can be seen walking around the city where he lives without an entourage?

He lives a rather ordinary life. Not everyone needs to "have the best" when normal works just fine.
