That analogy doesn't work. `train` is not a deterministic process. Meta has all of the training data and all of the supporting source code and they still won't get the same `weights` if they re-run the process. The weights are the

I agree that you need training data to build AI from scratch, much like you need lots of really smart developers and a mailing list and servers and stuff to build the Linux kernel from scratch. But it's not like having the training dat

I'm pretty sure that SharePlay screensharing is encrypted like FaceTime is, so I don't think you're sharing that stream of screenshots with Apple by using it. Their concern would be that if you allow third parties to use that

Who said it's trademarked? Apple has apps on macOS named "Photos" and "Calendar." There's apps on iOS named "Camera" and "Notes." It's not at all crazy to have one called "TV."

I stand by my counterpoint: Google can’t run “Hey Google” on-device because it only controls a small % of the devices it’s available on. In the world of built-in voice assistants, Siri is behind, but only as behind as it was in 2021.

This isn’t really the competition. This is more akin to opening up the OpenAI app than using Siri. Hey Google is, like Siri, still not LLM-based.
