[VERGE] Apple is reportedly spending ‘millions of dollars a day’ training AI

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Apple is investing millions of dollars per day into artificial intelligence, according to a new report from The Information.

Apple’s unit that works on conversational AI is called “Foundational Models,” per The Information’s reporting.

(Giannandrea has reportedly “expressed skepticism to colleagues about the potential usefulness of chatbots powered by AI language models.”)

A chatbot is in the works that would “interact with customers who use AppleCare”; another would make it easier to automate multistep tasks with Siri.

Those involved in its development tell The Information that Apple’s most advanced LLM, known internally as Ajax GPT, has been trained on “more than 200 billion parameters” and is more powerful than OpenAI’s GPT-3.5, the foundation of the initial version of ChatGPT that rolled out last year.

This model was initially created for internal use, according to previous reporting from Bloomberg and remains fairly locked down within the company.
