> Apple software is terrible

The Vision Pro software team did an incredible job. Its software is more impressive than its hardware.

Did Vision Pro leadership subsequently take over Apple Intelligence?

Did they? Why don’t I see people using this product while driving, or even walking down the street?

You're asking why, if its software is better than its hardware, people aren't driving cars with them on? Not sure I follow...

Because the HW is bad and pricing is bad. Not because SW is bad.

The hardware is best than class in both software and hardware by a mile who is this other company Meta or is it Microsoft with a HoloLens? Long-term iteration is the only way the Apple Vision Pro will get better if it took 13 years to come up with an M1 processor beginning to end and six years to have your first working modem that can be used in a smartphone there are no shortcuts long hard iteration is the only way.

I misread the comment I was replying to; thought they were claiming HW was good, and SW was bad.

Because it costs thirty five hundred American dollars?

The Apple Vision still needs to get two or three times better preferably with an M6 or M6 processor, whoops, more memory, faster SSD, thunderbolt five etc. oh and it needs to be $1500 Hmm… not possible for another two years? With better software.

And to do that more than likely the engineering and design of memory systems probably needs to come in house. No more outside dependency.

The software being good and it being used in a product consumers wanted are two very different things.

What did you think you were asking? Or was this just a lame, ill-conceived gotcha that probably needed another few hours in the oven before being chucked in the garbage?

Good, can they move to fixing the base OS then?
