A report from The Information yesterday offered a variety of interesting details about Apple’s potential acquisition targets in the artificial intelligence category.

One thing I found particularly fascinating in the story was the tidbit that Eddy Cue, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Services, has regularly pushed for Apple to make big acquisitions, only to be shot down by Apple CEO Tim Cook.

As is tradition, Apple CEO Tim Cook is in attendance at the Sun Valley Conference in Idaho this week. The event, commonly referred to as a “summer camp for billionaires,” attracts executives across media, tech, politics, and many other sectors. The conference has taken place in Sun Valley, Idaho for one week in July since 1983.

This year, Cook is in attendance alongside Apple’s services boss Eddy Cue.
