Apple was caught flat-footed when ChatGPT and other AI tools took the technology industry by storm. But the company is now preparing its response and plans to develop features for its full range of devices. Also: The future of the Mac comes into focus, a cheaper Apple Pencil debuts, and the Vision Pro gets closer.
The most Apple-way I see it being implemented is using local processing, which requires non existing (yet) technology. Mobile chips aren’t capable enough to do serious AI work, if latest Google Pixel AI-features is any indication (they are using cloud compute).
Well I don’t know about phone chips but using the metal api the cores in the m1 and up chips are fast enough to run 7B models nearly as fast as gpt4 runs.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has already shown to be capable of this.
