Dan Ives predicts that Apple and Microsoft will become the first companies to reach $4 trillion in market value by the end of 2025. Apple is expected to benefit from its new AI features, Apple Intelligence, which CEO Tim Cook claims will revolutionize the iPhone. Meanwhile, Microsoft's AI initiatives are projected to generate significant revenue, with estimates of $10 billion in the next quarter.
