Apple’s AI Models: A Google-Powered Leap in Intelligence

In a surprising twist, Apple’s AI models, developed by the tech giant known for its fiercely independent approach, have turned to Google for a crucial component of its artificial intelligence (AI) endeavors. Instead of relying on Nvidia GPUs, Apple has harnessed the power of Google’s Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) to train its latest generative AI models. Let’s dive into the details of this unexpected collaboration and explore how it impacts the future of AI.

The Choice of Hardware

Why TPUs?

Nvidia GPUs have long been the go-to choice for AI training due to their impressive performance. However, Apple opted for Google’s TPUs, specifically the TPU v4 and TPU v5 processors. Why the switch? It turns out that Apple and Nvidia have had their share of disagreements, which likely influenced this decision. Regardless, the move highlights the dynamic interplay between tech giants in the AI landscape.

 

Unpacking the Numbers

AFM-Server vs. AFM-on-Device

1. Trained on a whopping 8,192 TPU v4 chips.

This server-side AI model handles tasks like text summarization and suggested wording for messages.
It’s the powerhouse behind features like Apple Intelligence, seamlessly integrated into Cupertino’s operating systems.

 

2. AFM-on-Device (For iPhones and More):

Utilizes 2,048 newer TPU v5 processors.
This on-device model ensures that your iPhone’s AI capabilities are top-notch.
From predictive typing to personalized recommendations, it’s the invisible genius working behind the scenes.

Apple’s Bold Claim

Outperforming the Titans

Apple doesn’t shy away from boasting about its models. According to their research paper, their AFMs outperform those from Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, and even Google itself. But here’s the twist: Apple emphasizes human evaluation as the ultimate metric for user experience. It’s not just about academic benchmarks; it’s about how well the AI serves us in our daily lives.

 

Apple’s AI models‘ unexpected collaboration with Google’s TPUs marks a significant leap in AI innovation. As we witness these tech giants join forces, we’re reminded that progress knows no boundaries. So the next time Siri suggests a witty response or your iPhone predicts your next word, remember that it’s powered by a fusion of Apple’s ingenuity and Google’s silicon magic.
