Craig Federighi ignited Apple’s AI efforts after using ChatGPT

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Despite years of working to develop AI systems, it wasn’t until Christmas 2022 when Craig Federighi played with Copilot that the company truly got behind the idea.

The conventional wisdom is that Apple is far behind the rest of the technology industry in its use and deployment of AI. That has seemed nonsensical since Apple has had Siri for almost 15 years, and a head of AI since 2018.

However, a new report from the Wall Street Journal claims that despite all these years working on Machine Learning, and despite having ex-Google AI chief John Giannandrea, it could be true that Apple is substantially behind. Reportedly, Giannandrea and his team have struggled to fit in with Apple, and to get AI implemented.

All-powerful, ever-pervasive AI is running out of internet

Posted by in categories: information science, internet, robotics/AI

TO AVOID DATA COLLAPSE, Algorithmic Input models must have human-generated inputs, but those inputs are “running out” if only those existing on the internet are used.


There is no such thing as unlimited data.

Apple is about to enter the world of AI and nothing will ever be the same

Posted by in categories: mobile phones, robotics/AI

But behind that wave of unreliable garbage, some amazing features emerge from using AI models. Apple has the chance to depict itself as the adult in the room, a company committed to using AI for features that make its customers’ lives better–not competing to do the best unreproducible magic trick on stage.

In doing so, it risks being seen as dowdy and behind. But if Apple can see beyond the latest tech-industry hype cycle–and it’s generally good at doing that–it can bet on iPhone users being more interested in real features than impractical nonsense.

Historically, Apple has been a company with a very strong philosophy about new technologies: they should be applied to solving the problems of real people. Most tech companies have historically had this backward: they take delivery of some whizzy new technology fresh off a manufacturer’s conveyor belt and shove it into a product. The result tends to be products that are solutions desperately searching for problems.

Hugging Face and Pollen Robotics show off first project: an open source robot that does chores

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

As for how Hugging Face’s Le Robot team ended up collaborating with Pollen Robotics, Cadene told VentureBeat that it was a natural alliance born out of geographic proximity and overlapping areas of research interest.

“We closely follow Pollen Robotics work and are amazed by their robots,” Cadene wrote. “We were looking for humanoid robots. They were looking for end-to-end training software. So the collaboration between Pollen with their robot Reachy and Hugging Face with LeRobot was natural, especially [since] they are located two hours away from our [Le Robot] lab in Paris, so we just visited them for a few days.”
