Apple would want an AI assistant to run locally on your phone. Not to be dependent on sending your data to the cloud to give you results.
I don’t see how you think they are behind in general? They’re shipping a fairly powerful neural engine with their processors and they’re using them more and more.
They’re building out their CoreML framework. I don’t know how good this is.. is there an equivalent framework on other platforms that run efficiently on phone, tablet and PC?
If they haven’t made an LLM based AI assistant that runs locally it’s probably because it’s not possible to get good results yet. Is there anyone else that has managed to do it yet? I’m not aware..
Why not make a good cloud based assistant? I suspect one reason is they don’t have an advantage to leverage in cloud computing. I think they’d much rather try to leverage the advantage of the billions of chips they’re designing and selling themselves than being dependent on building a big cloud compute platform with other companies hardware.
