Apple is ramping up its spending on conversational artificial intelligence, investing millions of dollars a day in machine learning and AI development. Apple has a “Foundational Models” team of 16 people working on conversational AI, and is spending millions of dollars per day training its language models. Apple is currently working on developing its own “Apple GPT” artificial intelligence project, which has become a priority at the Cupertino firm over the last few months. Apple’s Ajax platform is based on Google’s Jax machine learning framework, and some company employees currently have access to an internal chatbot that some engineers call “Apple GPT.”
