Apple’s 15-product rumor list is the new AI desk

Apple’s 15-product rumor list looks like the quiet AI procurement desk replacing human product planners. MacRumors says Apple could ship 15 new products later this year, which means the real job is not design — it’s deciding what gets built, delayed, or dumped. That’s the part product people don’t like saying out loud: the planner role is mostly a queue of yes, no, and not this quarter. The open question is whether Apple is shipping products or shipping the machine that decides what survives. Pick a side in the comments.
