Terrible list and that's even if you ignore them starting the list with Threads. The true winners are the EU and Valve. Everything else is kinda meh or marred by scandal. The EU because the impact of the USB C law is massive. I'm already seeing tonnes of tech pivot, including Apple and the cheap shit you see on AliExpress. But also Valve, because I don't think anyone saw the Steam Deck becoming what it has.

The real winner this year is Supermicro. Don't believe me? Go look at their stock gains. Literally powering everything behind the shiny, cool stuff.

Ooh. Good catch!

How can the Vision Pro be a winner if it doesn't exist yet?

Wow, who's going to sign up for Elon Musk's risky brain implant trial? Maybe the same people who send their kids to Kanye West's boarding school, I guess.

Probably 😂

So, the biggest tech of 2023 is a bunch of promises of things coming soon?
