I absolutely loved the failed demos, it felt much more genuine than Apple's conference.

Here’s a better response for next time: “I’m embarrassed by our recent failures to demonstrate our latest products. Our customers absolutely deserve better and I’ll be personally making certain that all of these issues are fully resolved before any products ship to paying customers.”

Is that really so hard? If I can write this on the toilet why can’t one of the top tech companies and their massive PR budgets do it?

For me, it seems the issue with the recipe was due to pre-recorded segments. The guy quickly realized that the "AI" was ahead of the script and cut it short to avoid making a bigger mess during the demo.

As for the Zuck segment, I believe it was a race condition.
