It's worth noting that this is the first U.S. company to hit $1 trillion, not in the world. Also, it's still intraday, so Apple has not technically reached that point yet.
I should have clarified better - who would go to Amazon for their voice products, e.g., Alexa
I'm not a huge fan of voice either, but I find this stat fascinating. Why wouldn't Google just put one in every home for free. Who would go Amazon at that point (not to say one is better than the other).
Yeah he's really pulling the "don't ask permission, ask for forgiveness" card here, isn't he.
