I suspect he was trying to negotiate a place for Grok in Apple's LLM story.
With Google, Apple and Samsung having their own locked-in strategies there is now no pathway for Grok to any relevance.

- lanstin 2y agoBecause they have a brand reputation and all the (recent) words coming out of Elon, his media platform, and his AI are shit and people don't like them and it would conflict with Apple's brand image - they don't even let movie villains use iPhones and you think they'd put the potty mouthed, anti-science pro-fascism LLM he's trying to make onto their phones?
- JumpCrisscross 2y agoSorry, I should have said why couldn't Apple license Grok. Their deal with OpenAI isn't exclusive, after all. Musk's shenanigans are good reasons for Cupertino to keep a wide berth.
- threeseed 2y agoElon's record on trust and safety is not in-line with Apple's values. And ignoring that its quality is far behind OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic etc.
- rodgerd 2y agoI dunno, why wouldn't you want an LLM trained by a company whose owner keeps inviting child pornographers and neo-Nazis to post? What could possibly go wrong?
- ClassyJacket 2y agoPlease do show me where he explicitly invited child pornographers. Go ahead, link me to the specific place where he said that. I want to see what he said word for word.
- threeseed 2y agoNot sure if he has said anything explicitly. But he has re-invited child pornographers back on the platform. https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2023/07/27/twitter-suspends-then-unsuspends-popular-right-wing-user-who-tweeted-image-of-child-sexual-abuse/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2023/07/27/twitter-...
- john_minsk 2y agoCan't make decision for myself. Article doesn't contain picture in question or a link to a tweet or anything of that nature. Given that current internet narrative is neurotic and even smallest questions are blown out of proportions I tend to think that offence was not that big, otherwise FBI would request IP address of the guy and put him in jail (much better outcome then "ban his twitter account")
