How Apple has steadily been dropping the 'i' from its devices for over a decade
Much ido about nothing.

Apple set to deliver AI assistant for transcribing, summarizing meetings and lectures
Since Photos has facial recognition, I would guess that it could be upgraded to identify voices from videos stored in the Photos app. And once it has recognized voices, it could automatically annotate transcriptions of meetings by using the name of the person speaking in the annotation. Not a stretch.

A San Francisco highway near Apple Park wasn't pretty enough, so it got deleted
For this, Apple has just crossed the Rubicon and become as evil as FaceBook.

US Labor Board rules Apple illegally interrogated retail staff in NYC
FACT #1: Considering how Apple and its senior executives donate 84% of its political donations to the Democrats,

FACT #2: and considering that Democrats are 75% likely to support unions, while Republicans are only 35% likely,

...then why does Apple act so much like Republicans when it comes to unions?

Siri for iOS 18 to gain massive AI upgrade via Apple's Ajax LLM
I respect you, when you give examples to the contrary, which shows I overgeneralized. But it doesn't show I was wrong about everything. All I need is one example to prove I was right.gatorguy said:22july2013 said:This could be a problem for Google and Microsoft, because their AI services are all done online.
Nope. These things are on-device using Google AI:- Gemini Nano: Google's most efficient AI model for on-device tasks, which powers features like:
- Summarize in Recorder: Summarizes recorded conversations, interviews, and presentations without a network connection
- Smart Reply in Gboard: Suggests high-quality responses to save time
- Magic Eraser: Erases larger objects and people from photos without leaving traces
- Read aloud: Reads news articles aloud in English or another language
- Transcription: Transcribes recorded conversations and identifies the two speakers
- Summarizing audio recordings in the Recorder app
- Generative AI reply suggestions in chat apps like WhatsApp
- An enhanced Magic Eraser that generates new pixels to fill in spaces left by removed objects
- Best Take: A photo editing feature that combines similar photos into one, allowing users to select their favorite expressions for each person in the photo.
- Magic Audio Eraser: Removes unwanted background noise from videos on the Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro
So while some are done online, the resource-intensive Video Boost for instance, most of the AI features introduced with the Pixel 8 are done privately on the user's phone rather than sent to Google to accomplish. That makes Google's current use of on-device AI processing similar to the rumored integration of AI features on this fall's Pro iPhones.
However, if the reports are accurate, not all of Apple's AI features can be accomplished on-device. The more advanced features will still need cloud assistance.
