That claim was only used to make people think it is really, really, really capable. As that lie fell short, they have stopped using it.

Nobody knows what the brain does.

Indeed. The time where you can get a clean training data-set for cheap (legal or not) is over. Model collapse is a rather unfixable problem with contaminated data.

And whatever the "replacement" will be, will be "laughably bad" too.

China is not Nazi Germany. You need to learn some history.

But it will make the Chinese ultimately stronger.

In such cases, it is _allways_ management that is at fault. Management _must_ make sure inspections are independently verified, there are spot-checks, there is enough time to do the tests and no pressure to skip them, there are video-recordings, etc. If management makes it easy to skip the tests (as they have done here), they carry the full blame.

So again they have no clue what happened? That was already the case for the 2023 attack, AFAIK.

So MS gets attacked really badly, repeatedly, and does not even know what to fix to prevent another repeat. Cool.

It does. The human race is clearly destined for "death by stupidity".

Anybody that wants good hardware is not buying their stuff anyways. And the rest is delusional enough that this does not matter. There is no story here.

Cost. Obviously, Apple could do much better. But in the end, they are just after profits, like all commercial software makers.

Well, that probably means Windows and maybe OS-X. Anybody trusting especially Windows to keep them safe is already a fool, VPN or not. Hence this story is not very relevant.

Technical debt may also have far more impact than just "your company". That said, what you want is "good". Nil-wit managers are pretty good at convincing themselves that fake "good enough" is "good", but they are far less good at doing that for something that is not actually good and the evaluation is direct.

Aiming for "perfect", on the other hand, is just stupid. Doing that is an instance of the Nirvana fallacy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana_fallacy).

When special, unusual circumstances are met, special, unusual circumstances are met. You have no point.
