I know they are a phone company, but I think they should focus on local models software, not only hardware.

- Matl 2mo agoSoftware wise there's plenty to choose from already. Ollama/llama.cpp, LM Studio, Lemonade, vllm etc. Anything Apple would bring to the table?
- evilduck 2mo agoMaybe https://mlx-framework.org https://mlx-framework.org FWIW, Ollama, LM Studio and Lemonade (and oMLX) also wrap Apple's MLX framework.
- kksweet 2mo agoThey aren't a phone company, and haven't been ever. They're a hardware company first
- dosisking 2mo ago> They're a hardware company first More specifically, they're a hardware dongle company first
- flyingjoe 2mo agoMore like an "ecosystem company". It's the Hardware, Software and Services in combination. None would work without the other (to reach the scale apple is)
- Danox 1mo agoProbably too young if it was easy these companies would still be around I miss them SGI, Sun, Digital, Acorn, particularly SGI and Acorn. All were roadkill of Wintel.
- mleo 2mo agoApple has the mlx framework. Most/all major software for running models locally support it. Apple also has RDMA for interconnecting multiple machines across Thunderbolt connections.
- givinguflac 2mo agoUhhh, they are? They’re a hardware co for sure, but to say they aren’t focusing on on-device models is absurd on its face. They’ve spent over 2 years on Siri AI which is (mostly) local.
- micromacrofoot 2mo agotheir strength has been hardware for over 30 years now
- Danox 1mo agoThe last mainstream vertical computer company left from the 1980's, imagine if SGI, Sun, Digital, or Acorn were still around.
- wookmaster 2mo agoMy 100k company only buys Mac laptops and you're calling them a phone company. Such an odd comment.
- Danox 1mo agoIts called cope...
- rrgok 2mo agoFalse, they are a Marketing Company.
