Dose Apple hava any AI/LLM?
Apple is indeed working on AI technologies and has released research papers expanding the possibilities of generative AI[5]. However, there are several reasons why Apple might not launch generative AI features in its hardware for consumers in the near future:
- Lagging behind competitors: Apple’s progress on generative AI is reported to be “significantly behind its competitors”[3]. This might lead the company to take a more cautious approach and avoid adding generative AI features to its hardware for consumers in the short term.
- Market saturation: The AI market is already crowded with various AI-powered devices and products. Apple might be strategically waiting for the market to mature and for its competitors to set the pace before launching its own generative AI products[2].
- Technical challenges: One of the reasons for not launching generative AI features could be the technical challenges associated with implementing these features on devices with limited dynamic random access memory, such as iPhones and iPads[5]. Apple might be working on solving these challenges before launching generative AI products.
- Impact on stock price: According to an analyst note by Ming-Chi Kuo, AI might not have a positive impact on Apple’s stock price[3]. This could be a factor that Apple considers before launching generative AI features in its hardware for consumers.
Despite these reasons, Apple is still actively working on AI technologies and has released research papers showcasing its involvement in the field[5]. The company might launch generative AI features in its hardware for consumers once it overcomes the technical challenges and feels confident about its product offerings.
