Who would’ve thought consumers, in an economy propped up by an AI bubble, wouldn’t exactly be risking their financial stability for last year’s model bút with AI bloat- and spyware, or some extremely vulnerable folding party trick? Apple’s partnership with Klarna should set off alarm bells with regards to demographic being targeted; as for the intent of the buy back programs: furthering control over the second hand market. The AI circle jerk has created the perfect conditions for this anti-ownership model, and the innovatively stale industry is sparing no time to capitalize off it (Samsung for both the consumer- and enterprise segment).
