just my bias, but i'm increasingly reading this kind of design (colorful, humanist, overt celebration of creativity) as a subtle statement against gen AI

you know why people don't run their own servers? because a couple decades ago american ISPs said "no" to having a web server in your home, and it's been the same ever since. synology could've been the macintosh of the home server, instead we all use dropbox and web 2.0

so it's clear: i'm not saying apple is sending a subliminal message about gen AI, i'm saying any art like this (even from long ago, not from apple) reads different to me now in the current context. and i get that apple is gonna do AI: better believe they'll still use this imagery

lil investment advice: if you buy something cheap and it then moons and becomes 99% of your portfolio, sell it right now. you simply can't afford to keep it. good for you and everything but lock that shit in immediately, nothing should be 99% of your portfolio (or anything close)
