OpenAI’s ChatGPT has sparked excitement in the field of artificial intelligence, leading to the emergence of several new AI chatbots in just a few months. Even tech giant Apple has taken notice and has quietly been developing its own generative AI chatbot called “AppleGPT.”
According to Bloomberg, AppleGPT is built on Apple’s custom language model named “Ajax,” which is based on the Google JAX framework. This framework is specifically designed to accelerate research in machine learning and is powered by Google Cloud.
Similar to other chatbots like Bard, ChatGPT, and Bing AI, Apple’s chatbot is capable of summarizing text and providing answers based on the data it has been trained on.
Initially, Apple paused the rollout of the chatbot due to security concerns associated with generative AI. However, more Apple employees now have access to it, although approval is still required.
Multiple teams are dedicated to working on the chatbot, with some focused on addressing privacy concerns and others focused on product prototyping.
In recent times, Apple has been actively hiring engineers and scientists specializing in artificial intelligence, particularly those with a background in generative AI. The company is keen on advancing its “most advanced technologies.”
Leading this effort are John Giannandrea and Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice presidents of software engineering.
Given Giannandrea’s initial role in overseeing Siri and its machine learning capabilities, it’s possible that Apple’s digital assistant could receive a significant upgrade.
While Apple’s chatbot development is well underway, the company’s plans for it remain unclear. Sources speculate that Apple may make a significant AI-related announcement sometime in the coming year.
During an investor call, Apple CEO Tim Cook expressed the potential of generative AI while acknowledging the need to address concerns associated with the technology. This may explain why Apple is taking its time to ensure a responsible deployment of its AI.
