Answer to ChatGPT: Apple is working on its own AI chatbot

 Apple now also wants to get involved in the field of generative AI. According to a report, the company has set up several teams to develop Apple GPT. There are still no concrete plans to release the technology to the public.

Apple does not want to leave the AI ​​market to OpenAI, Google, and Meta. According to a new report by well-connected Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, the company is quietly working on AI tools and a chatbot a la ChatGPT . However, the company still lacks a clear strategy on how to give the AI ​​tools to consumers.



Apple GPT: Codename "Ajax"

According to Gurman , similar to ChatGPT or Bard, Apple has developed its own framework to generate large language models. Based on this framework, which is apparently known internally as "Ajax", Apple is said to have developed a chatbot service that some engineers have dubbed "Apple GPT", according to the Bloomberg reporter. Ajax was created to unify machine learning development, internal sources say.

According to information from Bloomberg, Apple's AI tool runs in the Google cloud and was developed using Google's JAX. This is a framework designed to accelerate research in the field of machine learning. Apple has several teams working on the AI ​​project, which also takes into account possible privacy implications.

Apple was caught unawares by generative AI - and now it wants to catch up

As far as AI development at Apple is concerned, the group has not been idle, but the focus so far has been on tools to improve photos and searches on the iPhone. In addition, with the release of iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 in autumn, smarter autocorrect will land on iPhones and iPads. However, the main AI product, the voice assistant Siri, lags far behind the alternatives from Google and Amazon.

It's also quite obvious that the company was caught unawares by both the launch of OpenAI's ChatGPT and the tool's integration into Microsoft products, as well as the launch of Google Bard. With the new tools in development, Apple now wants to enter the market for generative tools that can create essays, summaries, images and even videos using voice or text commands.

Ajax: Apple is wary of generative AI

In May, Apple's CEO expressed concerns about AI products during a conference call as there are "a number of issues that need to be addressed." Despite the concerns, he concluded by saying Apple sees AI as "huge" and will continue to invest in related technologies for its own products.

Although Apple's plans in the area of ​​AI are still quite unclear, sources tell Bloomberg that Apple plans to make a "significant AI-related announcement" next year. In May it was also indicated that Apple wants to transform the iPhone using generative AI .
