@manton I imagine there's some strategic tension inside Apple between participating in building and owning a world model versus having an abstraction layer for external world models that OSes can route prompts to. The former means Apple has to do a lot of un-Apple like actions and the latter is full other complications due to lack of control. Ultimately, I hope none of this slows down their work on small models that can execute on device and handle more "agent”-based use cases for automation

@manton Apple Intelligence is probably not much more than an idea right now.

I suppose, from their point of view, this is better than letting everyone get hooked on an alternative product, as they did with Google Maps. Either way, I don't much care for the idea of any LLM stuff on my phone, unless, it's really just on my phone.
