Tim Cook: 2020 was ‘Apple’s top year of innovation ever’ | AppleInsider

“There’s no one formula for innovation,” Cook said. “What we do is we have a culture of creativity and a culture of collaboration. These two things together, when they intersect, create enormous innovation.” He said that diversity and inclusion foster an environment for innovation, that diverse people feed off of each other.

The conversation turned to technology and how it has been implemented to improve lives. Cook discussed some of the innovations that were inspired by China, like alternate keyboard options, night mode photography, and QR code scanning. Cook said that it is important for everyone to learn how to use their device because “everything is on the phone.”

A breakthrough year in innovation? Sure… due to the M1 which will redefine the performance/power curve for computing and align with phones.

Ever? Well that’s part of the hyperbolic, BS driven we live in today… younger folks haven’t seen truly amazing breakthroughs (e.g. the Moon Landing) so a TikTok music remix becomes the innovation standard…

But compared to say Apple’s 1984… not even close… Tim, given where Apple is and is going there’s no reason for you to be serving the BS lasagna… it’s not a good look
