Good thing Mr. Hatfield didn't turn in his old Apple-1 for an Apple // when Steve Jobs gave him that option 50 years ago. It just sold at auction for $1,148,200 (including Bonham's premium) - a new record for an Apple-1. There are only 75 Apple-1's known to survive.

Good for them! Looks like a winner
Duo now showing Jan 25. I’m feeling better about my 20m unit estimate for FY27. Street at 10m. 20m translates to about 8% of overall units next year. In my almost 20 years of tracking these lead times, I’ve never seen them this long. There’s a big caveat; we don’t know production.

Every variation of the iPhone Duo is sold out until January 2027… ..all within 1 hour of pre-orders opening! 🤯🤯

Just one more machine than my garage !
Our on-device infra team has a knack for clean-looking setups... can you identify all the hardware? 👀

Feeling the vibes!
We vibe coded the Epic Games Launcher to be faster than the other guy. Don't believe us? Test it out for yourself in Preview: launcher.epicgames.com

Congratulations Professor!
A moment to celebrate! Members of the Columbia community gathered to honor Professor Michael Woodford after he received the @NobelPrize in Economic Sciences earlier today, including President Jennifer L. Mnookin, Provost Angela Olinto, Executive Vice President of Arts and Sciences Amy Hungerford, and Nobel laureates Joseph Stiglitz and Martin Chalfie. Congratulations, Professor Woodford! 📹 Columbia University

Excited for tomorrow! I kinda want a new iSight camera.
Apple held a special event 21 years ago today, on October 12, 2005 at the California Theater in San Jose. Steve Jobs introduced the updated iMac G5 with a new built-in iSight camera 📸 He also showed off the new Photo Booth app and ended up having some fun with the demo 🤣

Waiting for #amyhoodappreciationday aka earnings call!
MSFT is back at $4t and with Maia it now owns both ends of its AI stack Its integrating the compute layer with its own chips... already owns the apps and the harness (Copilot, GitHub, Foundry).... and in the middle, stays model-agnostic (running OpenAI, its own MAI models, Anthropic and open source) The bet is that models get commoditized, and the money goes to whoever serves them cheapest and owns the customer.

We were able to fine tune an open weight model (Qwen3.5-9B) on proprietary internal data at @coinbase, and it out performed frontier models, at much lower cost and speed, for a specialized task (fraud prevention in this case). I think we'll see more of this pattern inside companies. The frontier models are amazing generalists. But increasingly you'll see specialist models out perform on more narrow tasks, either working on teams, or by themselves. We're making it easy to fine tune models internally for our employees. We even have a skill for it in our internal harness that makes it easy to spin these up and start training them: "/fine-tune-and-serve-llm I want to fine-tune Qwen for payments risk review. help me get started" I imagine we'll have some backend services that could be replaced entirely by this new architecture.

Every company will need a lightweight harness that gives them - flexibility - control - visibility While being able to manage the artifacts of today agentic era -compute - models - code Think outlook for agentic age. Somebody call BrianMac
These are some very important observations from Satya. As models and harnesses commoditize, intent, verification and evidence will gate how quickly SI permeates enterprises and businesses. Importantly, you need to implement systems that separate who does the work from those who govern, measure and sign off on it. This is a new kind of “harness” that will emerge over the next few years. It may become a new system of record over time. One whose entire role is to track “change” and map it back to SOPs, policies, laws and the like.

Congratulations 🎊🎉
The most important briefings of the day. Karl Deisseroth, professor of bioengineering and of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, shares the news of his Nobel Prize with his kids.

I still remember as a young Microsoft employee listening to all his keynotes from my closed office in building 26 in Redmond - and sometimes getting ridiculed for brining the MacBook Pro to work! Thank you Steve for changing my life!
There are people who leave a mark on the world, and then there are people who change it entirely. Steve changed the world and so many lives in the process. He certainly changed my life forever. His spirit lives on in everything he created and everyone he inspired.
