Apple is creating its own AI-powered chatbot that some engineers are calling “Apple GPT,” according to a report from Bloomberg. The company reportedly doesn’t have any solid plans to release the technology to the public yet.

As noted by Bloomberg, the chatbot uses its own large language model (LLM) framework called “Ajax,” running on Google Cloud and built with Google JAX, a framework created to accelerate machine learning research. Sources close to the situation tell the outlet that Apple has multiple teams working on the project, which includes addressing potential privacy implications.

    I agree with you to an extent in that I would not want Siri producing a thesis every time I ask a simple question. But I think one thing that would help is if she remembered the last few things you requested and builds some sort of context around it? That’s what impressed me most about chatgpt. If it doesn’t quite give me what I’m looking for, I could clarify it and we’d eventually get there. Siri is like a person with severe short term memory loss, and much of my frustration comes from that.
