The sad truth is that any consumer AI company who isn’t a top dog and their business model relies on charging for AI features is basically DOA, overnight.
Apple just created thousands of zombie companies with a one hour keynote video release.
Hey Siri, set a timer for 89 days.
Everyone is focusing, quite correctly, on how this dumb, unelected bureaucrat is trying to block Apple from building products with users’ privacy in mind. But I want to focus on something else: the factual error he makes in this video when he says Siri AI is powered by Google.
That is, of course, wrong. Apple was quite explicit that the models were distilled from Gemini, but they are Apple’s own models. So I’m not even sure how this guy can be taken seriously on this issue if he can’t even get the basic facts right.
