Actually many people criticizw Apple's AI power, but they forget that the reason Siri is stupid because Apple want to (or at least they explicitly show) protect your privacy.
Iphone AI core is basically Edge AI, which means they deploy it inside the Iphone, not relying on a remote cloud. This can help protect customer data, but it also means they can not update their AI with new training data, and the Chip is kinda small so the model is not smart.
Just know this fact so ppl won't criticize Apple without knowing the sacrifice to protect their privacy
Nah, a lot of Siri requests really on Apple servers to fulfill. Supposedly they have recently supported more requests types entirely on-device, but 2 years ago I lived in an apartment with an underground parking garage and I constantly has basic requests like creating timers and reminders fail due to spotty cell service.
Which iphone was it? One of the newer ones which are advertised "built for Apple Intelligence"? I'm pretty sure that's their selling point and they even have a separate chip for it, if it still needs to connect then that's pretty stupid.
“For more complex requests that require more computational capacity, Apple Intelligence can use Private Cloud Compute, which extends the privacy and security of your Apple products like iPhone into the cloud to unlock even more intelligence. Private Cloud Compute uses larger, server-based models powered by Apple silicon.“
I think the bigger issue is that even the "cloud" stuff seems pretty stupid. Meanwhile while I wouldn't really trust any of these companies very much in actuality, it's not like nobody else is doing "edge" AI: Google is basically treating Gemma models like A1 steak sauce and pouring them on everything. (And although I don't know that any of those use cases really are particularly interesting, Gemma itself can be pretty impressive IMO.)
Apple doesn´t have a good reputation regarding privacy. I have to agree though that they fight for it. It is strange that siri is obsolete, comparing company evaluation, and compared to other tech giants. Also facts show a real battle, harder than other companies.
My best thoughts to TIM COOK.
Are you evaluating in a vacuum against some ideal company/community efforts or against their commercial competitor Google when you say that they don’t have a reputation for privacy?
It's kinda useless to raise this point unless we can think of some action to do about it.
Should people avoid the sun? Probably not. Sunlight is proven to have a lot benefit in regulating mood and biological clock.
Should people wear sunscream. Maybe yes, maybe no. I'm not sure. I myself prefer sunlight touch my skin. So unless the UV rate is too high, I won't put on sunscreen.
What are the actions that normal everyday ppl can take in your opinion?
I guess one comment I have would be related to value propositioning. I read through your site, haven't tried it yet, but I don't immediately see why would I use it. Like "Create AI Blog that learn" is too vague to know what your product actually help my usecase. What does it learn, what problem does it show.
Thank you for your feedback. I agree and I will improve it.
It helps you generate blog articles based on your project and suggests blog topics. It learns what blog topics you like based on your previously accepted and rejected suggestions, so it can suggest better topics as you use it.
I think we shouldn't over think this kind of stuff. Just obssessed with being so good at what you do, occasionally go to clubs or events in the fields you are interested, and people will notice you if you're good.
In my case, I was simply invited by people who already know my ability. I don't even actively find it.
Interesting idea, but I don't see much use case for it. Is it gonna be an another AI-powered photo editing feature, just like Photoshop or Canva, but more tailored for real estate? I understand that you want to make these eal estate photos look more attractive? But what's that point if the real places don't match the ads?
That's what I've saying forever. All of a sudden, everyone's thinking being a software engineer is just all about writing code. In fact, coding is easiest thing for devs. And to be honest, I think everyone's misunderstanding the term "vibe coding" so much that if you use any AI tools in your workflow, you're labeled a vibe coder. That's not Andrej karpathy meant when he coined this term.
Just to be clear, I don't think there's anything fundamentaly wrong with using AI to write code.
But just to make sure I got this right, I looked it up on Wikipedia:
> "Karpathy described it as "fully giving in to the vibes, embracing exponentials, and forgetting that the code even exists."
> "A key part of the definition of vibe coding is that the user accepts code without full understanding"
> "If an LLM wrote every line of your code, but you've reviewed, tested, and understood it all, that's not vibe coding in my book—that's using an LLM as a typing assistant."
Love your work, but can you share what criteria these llms use to evaluate prompts and it would be nice if these llms can give feedback on improving these prompts beside giving just a score!
