What Killed the Apple Car?
Переглядів 507,328
День томуProject Titan, Apple’s secretive car program, has been canceled. The tech giant spent billions of dollars over the past decade as part of a grandiose plan to upturn the car industry in the same way the iPhone revolutionized mobile phones. There was an abortive effort to buy Tesla, a design inspired by the old Volkswagen bus and plans to team up with Mercedes-Benz, BMW and others.
But last month, Apple quietly abandoned the car project. Bloomberg News goes under the hood of Project Titan to reveal what the company was planning and explain why it ultimately fell apart.

@zulucoyote2731 2 місяці тому
One way to look at this project's failure is from the perspective of Simon Sinks "Start With Why." It seems to me that in this project Apple started with the product that they wanted to make (a car or "the what") instead of figuring out the problem they were trying to solve. This lead to the wide and changing focus of the project. Essentially, they were focused on creating a product that they already envisioned and not solving a problem or creating a solution. They started with 'we want to make an Apple car' and not 'how do we make the driving experience better for individuals.'

@ruzzelladrian907 2 місяці тому
They probably figured that if they hire Foxconn or other manufacturers to manufacture their car, it wouldn't be profitable enough. They're very particular with having high profit margins on each product they sell, so I'm guessing the profit margins for a car wasn't enough. Take for example NIO, they make the software and designs in-house, but contract a manufacturer, like JAC Motors, to manufacture their NIO cars. Of course, JAC has to make a profit off each car to justify manufacturing one, and NIO has to profit off their car, too. What NIO gets is an expensive car they have to sell, but they can't make it too expensive, or no one will buy it. So they have to lower it to make it appealing, but they sacrifice on profit margins. Only Tesla right now has the highest profit margins on each car they sell, because they did not just vertically integrate their designs and software, but also the manufacturing of the cars themselves by owning their own factories. Apple could do the same as Tesla, by building their own factory, but that must've been too complicated for them to justify the initial investment costs associated with building their own factory from scratch, as they're used outsourcing to Foxconn. Maybe Apple will do the Apple TV way? We've heard of rumors about an Apple TV, not the box, for almost two decades now , and the rumors were high around 2010 - 2014. The reason Apple won't make a TV is because the TV market's profit margins is paper thin. Not worth it for Apple, so they made a TV box with Apple software in it, and sell it for $150. So maybe Apple will just partner with car brands to use their software for a fee.
@drwisdom1 2 місяці тому
Apple makes proprietary computer products with proprietary software that traps it's users so Apple can charge high margins. Doing that involves hanging around in offices having meetings or zooming, contracting out computer production (iPhones/iPads/iMacs) to foreign countries with cheap labor, and writing user controlling software. Apple is a virtual business. But manufacturing vehicles is a real and serious business that is about making actual mechanical things that have to function since people's lives are at stake. Apple doesn't have the skills or corporate culture to do that. The best that Apple can hope for is to provide their software to actual vehicle manufacturers that forces Apple users to buy specific vehicle brands at a premium.

Grandiosity is the right word to describe what's at the base of this failure. Or more precisely the intersection between incompetence and grandiosity. The notion that somehow apples software chops was going to allow them to build a vehicle in an area of technology in which they had no, and I do mean zero competence, manufacturing, or technical abilities was always at best a leap of wishful thinking. It's nice to see Tim Cook eat some Crow because he's been bragging about this for years. Anybody who knew anything about Vehicles knew this was a doomed project unless they hired Talent from somebody who actually knew how to make cars as opposed to watches and cell phones. The other screaming red flag was that they never produced a real prototype. What's particularly damning is that it took them 10 years to admit that they had no idea what they were doing. I wonder how many hundreds of millions of dollars that group chewed through chasing a fantasy?

Apple realised that self-driving technology wasn't ready yet, and didn't want to try create it themselves, so they shelved the project. As expected from the company that hasn't created anything new in the last 20 years.

As a former Apple enthusiast and a millennial born in the mid-90s (my primary devices are now all Huawei; I don't want to deal with the hassle anymore, plus some features are really thoughtful), I was deeply moved by how Steve Jobs' iPhone and MacBook Air changed the rules of consumer electronics. I was also captivated by the Zen-like, postmodern aesthetic of Apple products that offered a comfortable and serene experience, along with hidden yet exquisitely crafted functionalities. Of course, these qualities are fading now; the features are becoming bloated, the signal is routinely weak, and there's a lack of distinctiveness and the kind of beauty that once brought tranquility. However, before seeing this video, I had no idea of the extent of the chaos within Apple.

This makes alot of sense as to why they shifted to AI and VR "Spatial Computing". This could actually be beneficial in 3 ways. 1.) Apple helps build better AI models for the infrastructure that maybe others in the industry are missing. 2.) Apple helps popularize VR which they're doing right now for the average consumer market which is going to focus more attention on VR and it's future as well as help build things in VR that are much needed with apples budget. 3.) Apple will be the reason VR becomes an at home, at work and on the go necessity to replace or even be another option other than using a smart phone, tablet, laptop, or tv. Oculus started it, Meta made it better and affordable, Valve improved on the possibilities, Apple can bring it home or maybe Valve might enter again wwith the deckard on the way.

One of key factors is Apple failed to develope its viable high-level adas. A viable adas itself is worth $10s to 100s billions. If Apple has developed such a system after 10 years of R&D effort, Apple won't throw away the water with its golden baby adas.
