What do you expect from a company whose advertising budget dwarfs R&D.

Am I the only one who caught this? October 2024 is 3 months away.
Name just one.
We'll wait...
Non sequitur.
Because what is the origin of this claim that Apple can only be successful
in the marketplace if they do nothing less than ´leapfroggingˇ?
HINT: These uneducated low-IQ religious zealots just make this stuff up.
Which is why I asked you for a substantiating citation of what you˙re
trying to use as a goalpost: due diligence requires that you didn˙t try to disingenuously move said goalposts.

Perfect.
In early AI experiments (80's) they asked a computer to come up with a
description of the suburbs.
It spat out: "... a place where grass is grown."
Earlier this year Google had several blunders, notably the one where it was asked to create a picture of a bunch of Englishman.
It’s just another example of Garbage In Garbage Out and wokism.

You're the only one who bothers to read the mindless gibberish and
completely fabricated nonsense posted by the braindead anti-Apple know-nothing trolls. The rest of us were smart enough to killfile those idiots long ago. :-p
It's interesting how biased the ignorant uneducated low-IQ Apple religious >>> zealots are; but let's simply ask them to back up their claims by stating >>> even a *single* factual technological accomplishment Apple has had for the >>> iPhone in the past five years that they consider "leapfrogged" Android.

AirTags?
Yup. Nothing comes close.
Not in the last five years, that's quite short period of time in such a mature industry, but also AirPods (& Pros) and FaceID.

You ignore the effect that the Apple M series CPU has had on the laptop
space. The race to convert to Snapdragon is well underway. The A series
phone CPU is no slouch either. Then there is that whole Apple support
network. In my extensive Android experience there was NOTHING like that.
Bear in mind I use iPhones and iPads and Android phones every day where you'll never hear me disagree with any sensibly logical stated viewpoint.
The main difference between me and most of the people who post to the Apple newsgroups is I don't believe every word that Apple claims in
advertisements - and - in fact - I see how much Apple lies in its
marketing.
To your points though...
What I like about the highly flawed (unpatchable) M-series CPUs is that it put Intel on notice that they'd better improve their chip design output.
In that sense, I completely agree with you, and I agree with Apple's
strategy (as they tried with Qualcomm) to divorce themselves from others.
It's a crapshoot as to what Apple's strategy is with smartphone CPUs as
there are plenty of indications it's purely a (brilliant) marketing ploy.
Suffice to say that Android phones leapfrog Apple iPhones regularly, just
as Apple iPhones leapfrog Android phones regularly - where I strongly
suspect it would be the case no matter which CPU Apple/Android used.

Case in point, AI asked to render salmon swimming upstream:

Well, it may be a fad .. or perhaps not (at least for certain niches). >>>> Real point is that it is still formative and immature today.
Yeah, I personally dislike AI.
As far as I can find, the only people who actually like AI are those
making money from creating it or pointlessly adding it to every product
they sell to get gullible to upgrade yet again. :-\
"AI" has so many different meanings that it depends on who you ask.
Most "AI" is some form of statistical modelling - ML, ANN, DL, CNN - which has been around for decades and is very powerful & useful. In the right context.
Trying to disentangle real AI - oxymoron? - versus snakeoil "AI" is tricky. Even in the scientific community there's little distinction by the funders, propagating the uncertainty.
