TC:210K I heard an entrepreneur saying “There are two aspects to a business - One is running it and the other is building it” #tech
Nvidia
Thoughts on Intel’s new gpu?
Nasa
NASA is another league altogether They and a couple more orgs have impacted human lives in the order of magnitude
I dont think it's technically a company, but the word innovation reminds me of them. The list of options you mentioned are businesses focused than mankind
none of the bigger behemoth companies are producing anything innovative, but their businesses are strong enough that any disruption is difficult. exception: TikTok with their recommendation model which has made "virality" accessible to all
Can you elaborate on TikTok’s model Any reading material?
i think they recently released a paper on it not sure, can google tiktok recommendation engine for more
tsmc.. others are derivatives
OpenAI
Apple is one of the least innovative companies out there.
Not really iPod, making iPhone all screen, iPad (an overkill but sure), loves privacy and screwing up with feds for customers, talked design and engineering all the time (atleast until Steve was here), integrated touch id (99.99% of android phones today all have fingerprint scanner), Screwed Intel and trashed out cheap processors for M1, FaceId and neural processor chips. The list goes on… all this comes at a premium price which I’m fine paying for That being said upgrading from 14pro max to 15pro max won’t make sense (USB C was supposed to be industry standard for years)
Apple just improves the last 10% after every Tom dick harry has fixed million issues + invested ton of their money.
ASML.... Building the most complex machines. I can tell you how exciting is the job and the complexity
What do you build though? Sorry I haven’t heard about you guys before
We build the photolithography machines, needed to manufacture virtualité every high end semiconductor device. ASML has the monopoly on EUV technology. You find interesting videos on ASML EUV machines on YouTube. According to the new york Times, asml machine is "the most complex machine ever built"
Has to be Google.
I missed Albertsons
Old joke. You need to be innovative!
How about if I say Walmart? Still old or am I being a prick
