Stewart, you nailed it!!

Apple stopped leading a long time ago. It’s all polish, fluff, and profit now. No real product innovation, just slightly better cameras and buzzwords dressed as breakthroughs, like AI, to make it sound like they're still relevant. That works until it eventually doesn’t.

The only way forward is a new CEO willing to take real risks and build new and exciting things. Otherwise Apple is heading down the same path as Blackberry, Xerox, and every other giant that got comfortable before getting replaced.

This is why wildcatters matter so much. Big companies stop swinging. Startups, and the people crazy enough to back them, are the only ones still taking real shots. And those shots come with the highest reward.
