@@zdravkodomic5029not that far before. Steve would be in meetings centered on using capacitive touch for tablet & phone in 2004. (With first pass prototypes) This was filmed in 2003.
Fun fact: Apple had already started development of the iPhone and iPad on 2003. Steve talking about how iPads won't work and no plans for an cell phone was a marketing decision that encompasses their slogan "surprise and delight" so that when they did announce it, they could live up to their slogan.
i am inspired by this man's ability to see the future of trends, he was a really good at thinking through the important information, how valuable a mind.
Steve was and still is an icon for all of the IT visionaries out there, but his main excellence is in pure understanding of that person who buys your product. Lesson for us all is that we now know how is so crucial to understand consumer mind in the deepest possible level and know what he really wants. All thx to Steve and his approach and vision he could picture every time he would look on something. His ingenuity and creativity in communication and mostly dialog he could start was amazing! RIP
People seem to forget that Woz has had nothing to do with Apple other than getting a cheque every month or whatever for the last 20 years. He left to do his own thing around the time of the original Macintosh and has really had no real input since. He even says as much himself when asked. People just seem to idolise him (for good reason), but he isn't nearly as influential as people sometimes give him credit for. Not since the very early days at least.
+Faisal Shahid tablet back then meant a laptop with a screen that reversed and that you could write on with a stylus. Not an "ipad looking thing". Oh yeah, and those things stunk
I wish I could go back in time and say very softly in Steve's ear "hey, in the near future people will be watching this interview on a tiny little screen"
I get choked up watching Steve Jobs talking so passionately about what he's gonna do in the next few years, with the realization that this legend was gone last year. He's an true visionary and an inspiration to millions of people around the world.
Having a visionary like this guy who was spending most of his living time envisioning the future of technology 5-10 years in the future. This is why Apple became great. Now this job was distributed to many VPs and executives at Apple and started to water down their products and services without having that ultimate person (Steve Jobs) on top of everyone filtering their sometimes idiotic choices.
He was good friends with Ray Kurzweil and people like them tend to flock together. Ideas are incubated between liked minds and allowed to thrive. Even intellectual giants like Einstein were commingling with other geniuses and played off each other. Ideas are rarely borne out of an original thought. Remember Apple has a knack of refining existing products.
Watching this is a great learning lesson. Specifically: technology constantly grows and evolves, and one of the things you have to do is keep up-to-date and an open mind.
11:02 Steve revealed the world how future will be changed by phones in 2003. Everyone saw and heard his explanation but nobody would see iPhones showed up 4 years later. He was be truth to all of us, from bottom of his heart all the time.
I wrote all of my college work for 2 years on an iPad on a word processor. I wrote three different pieces of work including two dissertation and I used it to record music for two pieces of work an I use it as a musical instrument which works just as good as a macbook pro. Its a good piece of kit if you know how to use it.
Again very true. I guess I'm in the minority being an IT systems / Network tech for the last 8 years and now doing a Computer Science degree, I'm shifting into programming and software development having made a few friends and opportunities in that industry. I can probably see more than most in the OS given my background. It's a joy to work with in many ways.
They were not going to add the ability to buy songs right on your iPod. They were not getting into the tablet business. They were also not getting into the phone market. Yet, they did.
Interesting! "You got to have a keyboard" A little he mentioned about app economy and a powerful computer in our pocket. It shows how gradual process changes our 'frame of reference'.
4:00 "... Why can't you just put wifi in the iPod and not make people use Desktops" ... He has no idea of the scale of the revolution in the words he just spoke.
Pretty sure he did have some notion. In 2003, he was already well into the development process for the iPad. Not the iPhone, the iPad. Then he felt the world wasn't ready for the iPad so he switched to iPhone dev. instead. Amazing really.
@@98Zai maybe not in the last 5 years but from this interview to 10 year later that was definitely a bigger jump. People don't even own desktop PC's anymore
@@nonstickmeat_ssb It's been 5 months since I watched this video so I'm not really sure what we're discussing, but the Iphone has changed about as much as coffee machines. Sure it has a few new features, but it's still a coffee machine, not a coffee grinder and a stove with a pot of boiling water. I'm talking about the design and feature set, clearly, not the advancements made in processor or screen tech etc.
Yup.... it is truly amazing how still advancing technologies can make such things happen. A powerful OS running on energy efficient ARM SoC? Never heard of before 2004
This guy (not Steve) touched on ideas that would come to light in the future for Apple. He saw that in 03'. People have wonderful ideas long before they ever see the light. It comes down to perfectionists making sure that the proper research is being done and that there will be a full packaged product, smartly done and intuitive. That was Steve Jobs. So that guy made alot of predictions but of what did come later but only after the right steps were made first.
I never used Apple, never agreed to the vision of removing tech-obstacles in the name of user-friendliness, but, Steve Jobs I cannot but love. It is not his vision that is remarkable, it is the fact that he was visionary and determined, that is truly rare.
He was very good with the media… even though he probably did not want to really deal with them, he knew it was extremely important to get the narrative he wanted , out into the public…
“For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.” Steven Paul Jobs was an American business magnate, inventor, and investor. He was the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple.
duh its physics 101. just like when you talk up a bad stock and say buy buy bc its a good deal while you know damn well its not so you sell before it crashes
He didn't lie, while he was secretly developing the iPad, Jobs was saying he felt the iPod & iPhone would be more successful at the time so Apple poured most of there work into it & the software. 98% of the stuff you can do on an iPad you can do on the phone. the consumer doesn't really NEED a tablet.
The next 10 years of technology has been brainstormed and already in development. By the time we see a new piece of technology the companies are already working on the next big thing.
people tend to forget that the technology didn't exist or was in it's early development in 2003. once the larger screens and mobile processors became better - faster and cheaper, the development of the ipod touch / iphone / ipad was possible. MP3 players sucked back then and were expensive. But that was all that was possible. The processors and memory in current mobile devices wasn't even close to becoming reality in 2003.
He meant the tablet is going to fail... based on what tablets were coming up in those days.. They had barely started working on a tablet in 2003. But it wasn't resolved anywhere close to what the iPad is. It around 2005-2006 is when they had an idea of what a tablet should look like, but then Jobs thought that they could make a phone instead, and so the tablet was shelved for a later date.
The humility he has, “you were the last company to figure out MP3’s”, “We made some mistakes”, “well, the reason was…”. Apple was never number 1 & still isn’t in terms of market share, but boy does believing in your vision really pay off in the long run
The young kids in my family all cried when he passed away even though they had not seen the past (Apple II and Mac when they originated.) Not a perfect person, but he really did make a difference. Also, he was write about Apple: If they got it wrong, another company like the phone company would become entrenched for around 100 years. RIP.
The hub was already there in 2003. I remember taking pics with my sony cybershot, and printing them off my photo quality ink jet printer onto laminated paper. My mp3 collection goes back to 1999. Jobs is not a sooth sayer. "We think the tablet's gonna fail" - Steve Jobs. Hahah
think about it... "tablet" in these days meant a PC with a full grown operating system on it. MS introduced its Windows XP tablet edition with handwriting features etc. which had run on bulky laptops with a touchscreen. but the handwriting recognition was buggy and the touchscreen wasn't really that good (because it was not capacitive) so these devices were doomed for failure. Apple never tried this. What they did in 2009 was creating a slim device with a custom os and huge internet features.
the same goes with a lot of markets other than US, kinda ironic speaking of dinosaur when you are thinking that small. they have access to ipods, but not their domestic songs on Itunes. what are they going to do don't matter, the point is their music is not from Itunes, therefore what you described happened.
Had he at that point already decided to make a tablet? I'm not sure about chronology here. It was around that time when they decided to make a tablet and then quickly changed their minds and made the iPhone first.
Well yes, of course, no OS is completely infallible. But OSX has a much more stable and secure foundation in Unix than Windows does today. The smaller install base and less business focus also means less people spend time targeting it.
Most people already have a cd collection they have ripped to mp3s, most people only make occasional purchases from itunes to buy rare tracks, thats my take anyway!
I do agree with 2003 Steve. I have an iPad and I basically never use it. It's very nice design and screen but superfluous, not essential like a PC or phone
You mean like the ASUS slate... it's easily possible to make a powerful tablet able to handle 3ds max (and other 3d software), adobe software etc. the question is if there is a market for it. There is, there are just a few more refinements needed in OLED and battery technology. In the next couple years it will be commonplace.
