Apple shifts focus from electric vehicles to AI

Apple has decided to cancel its electric vehicle project, Project Titan, and reallocate its resources towards artificial intelligence initiatives. Initially planning a fully autonomous vehicle without a steering wheel or pedals, Apple faced technological limitations and shifted focus to a consumer model with limited self-driving capabilities. Challenges such as loss of momentum, executive departures, and industry entry difficulties led to the project's cancellation. This move indicates a strategic shift from hardware to software and AI for Apple.
