Worst one is probably Apple. They just announced “Apple Intelligence” which is just ChatGTP whose largest shareholder is Microsoft. Figure that one out.
Well, most of the requests are handled on device with their own models. If it’s going to ChatGPT for something it will ask for permission and then use ChatGPT.
So the Apple Intelligence isn’t all ChatGPT. I think this deserves to be mentioned as a lot of the processing will be on device.
Also, I believe part of the deal is ChatGPT can save nothing and Apple are anonymising the requests too.
Is this conjecture or can you provide some further reading, in the interest of not spreading misinformation.
Edit: I decided to read the info from Apple.
With Private Cloud Compute, Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing, and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers. When requests are routed to Private Cloud Compute, data is not stored or made accessible to Apple and is only used to fulfill the user’s requests, and independent experts can verify this privacy.
Additionally, access to ChatGPT is integrated into Siri and systemwide Writing Tools across Apple’s platforms, allowing users to access its expertise — as well as its image- and document-understanding capabilities — without needing to jump between tools.
Say what you will about Apple, but privacy isn’t a concern for me. Perhaps, some independent experts will verify this in time.
Well, most of the requests are handled on device with their own models. If it’s going to ChatGPT for something it will ask for permission and then use ChatGPT.
I feel I was pretty explicit in explaining how some requests will go to ChatGPT.
Do you think that if you enter into a contract with a company like Apple they’ll just be like, aww shit they weren’t supposed to do that. Anyway let’s carry on.
No. This would open OpenAi up to potential lawsuits.
Even if they did save stuff. It gets anonymised by Apple before even being sent to ChatGPT servers.
I don’t want my comments here to be received as shilling Apple, more that I want them to based on actual information that is provided and not opinion pieces.
The fact is, if they were to caught saving data then Apple would just end the contract. Is it worth it for them to lose out on that cash, for the sake of using it. When they can just use all the other sources where they are allowed to do that.
Anyway, I don’t care what anonymised data they may or may not save. It won’t be tied to me.
Edit: Do you have some information on this existing lawsuits and the contracts they broke?
There’s kind of a difference between “we scraped the internet and decided to use copyrighted content anyways because we decided to interpret copyright law as not being applicable to the content we generate using copyrighted content” (omegalul) and “we explicitly agreed to a legally-binding contract with Apple stating we won’t do that”.
That’s just not true. Most requests are handled on-device. If the system decides a request should go to ChatGPT, the user is promped to agree and no data is stored on OpenAI’s servers. Plus, all of this is opt-in.
I think there’s a larger picture at play here that is being missed.
Getting the weather is a standard feature for years now. Nothing AI about it.
What is “AI” is, Hey Siri, what is the weather at my daughter’s recital coming up?
The AI processing, calculated on-device if what they claim is true, is:
the determination of who your daughter is
What is a recital? An event? Are there any upcoming calendar events that match this concept?
Is the “daughter” associated with this event by description or invitation? Yes? OK, what’s the address?
Submit zip code of recital calendar event involving the kid to the weather API, and churn out a reply that includes all this information…
Well {Your phone contact name}, it looks like it will {remote weather response} during your {calendar event from phone} with {daughter from contacts} on {event date}.
That is the idea between on-device and cloud processing. The phone already has your contacts and calendar and does that work offline rather than educating an online server about your family, events and location, and requests the bare minimum from the internet, in this case nothing more than if you opened the weather app yourself and put in a zip code.
Voice processing is AI and was done by Apple servers. Previously, only the keyword “Hey Siri” was local. Onboard AI chips will allow this to be local. The actual queries will go to the servers. Phones do not have the power to run useful LLM locally- at least not with the near instantaneous response times phone users expect. A 56 Watt 128GB RAM M3 Max does around 8.5 tokens/second.
Perhaps this is why these features will only be available on iPhone 15 Pro/Max and newer? Gotta have those latest and greatest chips.
It will be fun to see how it all shakes out. If the AI can’t run most queries on the phone with all this advertising of local processing…there’ll be one hell of a lawsuit coming up.
EDIT: Finished looking for what I thought I remembered…
Additionally, Siri has been locally processed since iOS 15.
Forgive me, I’m no AI expert to fully compare the needed tokens per second measurement to relate to the average query Siri might handle, but I will say this:
Even in your article, only the largest model ran at 8/tps, others ran much faster, and none of these were optimized for a task, just benchmarking.
Would it be impossible for Apple to be running an optimized model specific to expected mobile tasks, and leverage their own hardware more efficiently than we can, to meet their needs?
I imagine they cut out most worldly knowledge etc/use a lightweight model, which is why there is still a need to link to ChatGPT or Apple for some requests, would this let them trim Siri down to perform well enough on phones for most requests? They also advertised launching AI on M1-2 chip devices, which are not M3-Max either…
Literally not what people are talking about. It’s the “AI” part of the task that doesn’t leave the device (unless it prompts to ask chat gpt). Not that it can magically gleam live info without making any request to the web…
Jeeze, fucking… get your shit straight, making me defend Apple… Fucking do better.
Not true. Most if not all requests are handled by apples own models on device or on their own servers. When it does use OpenAI you need to give it permission each time it does.
Ok… theoretical question. Couldn’t a terrorist turn the liquid into a pretty solid gel, shape it as a buttplug an simply have it in their hand luggage?
Two to three meals a day, almost no snacks, generally a decent amount of fiber. Mom's basically the same and I think grandmother was. Mom has been diagnosed with various forms of IBS. Dad has Celiac's and a DNA test I took said increased risk.
If I go keto, almost all the issues disappear. Trying to do that is basically impossible whilst living with my wife because I can't just not make food and not keep anything I shouldn't eat in the house (my willpower eventually crumbles when I'm busy or stressed).
If you want to skip having a big ass bag full of liquids, many products are available in solid form. Toothpaste comes in tablets, shampoo comes in bars, and shave lotion also is available in bars. Then you can save your liquid quota for what really matters, like a wide assortment of personal lubricants.
The idea that wolf packs are led by a merciless dictator, or alpha wolf, comes from old studies of captive wolves. In the wild, wolf packs are simply families
I mean. They are a matriarchy. So one could say the oldest is the alpha female. Who only accepts a new female in the group if she’s able to sexually satisfy the matriarch. And in case you want to see what bonobo gay sex looks like… don’t. It looks like two sopping tumors rubbing against each other.
