Apple (AAPL) stock popped briefly on Wednesday, July 19, after a Bloomberg News report said the company was developing its own artificial intelligence large language model internally. It’s up about 1% for the day in midday trading.
The move signals Apple is taking recent advances in AI technology seriously and is considering integrating them into future products. The company rarely uses the term “artificial intelligence,” instead opting for the more academic “machine learning.”
Apple has an internal foundation for AI called Ajax and a small team of engineers have built a chatbot that some call “Apple GPT,” according to the Bloomberg News report. Access to the chatbot is limited within Apple. Some Apple insiders believe the company is aiming for a significant AI announcement next year. Aside from LLMs, Apple uses a lot of machine learning in its products, from Siri speech recognition to the ability of the Photos app to detect faces and pets.
