Rony floats Sam Altman as Tim Cook’s successor. Charlie suggests Apple needs a bold move—like acquiring OpenAI—to recover from Vision Pro’s underperformance and Siri’s years of neglect.&nbsp;Auki Labs'&nbsp;decentralized protocol, PoseMesh, uses scannable QR codes and self-hosted data to guide robots&nbsp;and&nbsp;humans&nbsp;through physical spaces. It's a killer demo: a blind person navigating to a bathroom via an app clip, no headset required.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!</p><p>Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!
