I think with MCPs and related tech, if Apple just internally went back to the drawing board and integrated the concept of MCPs directly into iOS (via the "Apple Intelligence" umbrella) and seamlessly integrated it into the App Store and apps, they will win the mobile race for this.

Being Apple, they would have to come up with something novel like they did with push (where you have _one_ OS process running that delegates to apps rather than every app trying to handle push themselves) rather than having 20 MCP servers running. But I think if they did this properly, it would be so amazing.

I hope Apple is really re-thinking their absolutely comical start with AI. I hope they regroup and hit it out of the park (like how Google initially stumbled with Bard, but are now hitting it out of the park with Gemini)
