Apple Ramps Up Hiring of Generative AI Experts

Apple is hiring for at least a dozen new experts in generative artificial intelligence amid rumors that the company is stepping up its work on AI.
The Apple job listings, first spotted by TechCrunch, seek a range of machine learning specialists "passionate about building extraordinary autonomous systems" and began appearing on April 27. The openings are for positions in the Integrated System Experience, Input Experience NLP, Machine Learning R&D, and Technology Development Group.
Some of the roles, such as a Visual Generative Modeling Research Engineer, specifically involve work on "visual generative modeling to power applications across computation photography, image and video editing, 3D shape and motion reconstruction, avatar generation, and much more."
Following the launch of an official ChatGPT app for iPhone last week, it emerged that Apple has banned employees from using such utilities due to security concerns and work on its own similar technology. In March, DigiTimes reported that Apple is "re-examining" its work on artificial intelligence. The company is now believed to be testing generative AI concepts that could one day be destined for Siri.

If Apple is just starting this now then they are waaaay behind the curve. They should have been working on this for years already.
The final piece of the puzzle for the AI revolution. Admittedly, like usual, they're a few years late
I feel like Apple is so behind when it comes to AI. As usual, they are late. Google and Microsoft have already taken over.
My suggestion: Hire new experts to fix/revamp SIRI.

Seriously? Apple has been collaborating with Stanford University's AR/VR Laboratory for at least the last seven years. And in addition to Apple's own internal app development, they are no doubt working with at least a handful of trusted developers.If Apple is just starting this now then they are waaaay behind the curve. They should have been working on this for years already.
Do you really believe that during WWDC Tim Cook will walk out on stage with Apple's AR device and say something like: "Here it is y'all, our device. Not only do we not have any interesting apps, we have no idea what it will be used for. C'mon down and help give us a clue!"

I see many comments from people who do not have the necessary knowledge regarding A.I. nor work in the field saying that Apple is a few years behind. In fact, you have no idea what youʼre talking about.

Better to lower our expectations🤪 there’s artificial intelligence and then there’s Apple intelligence. Apple intelligence is where Siri tells you what she thinks would be best for you.🙃 as opposed to answering the question you asked. All part of the walled garden.

Really shows the kind of liar Cook is when he said "we want to do it the best possible way'
They're just late is all
"Fortunately" money is everything and apple is the richest company in the word , so they should get the best devs and engineers in their teams
As for the time it will take,it's not like many people are going to leave the ecosystem anyway, especially in the US, and they know it
Sitting on your laurels sure is comfortable when you got no true competitor

I was thinking about this the other day.
For a rube like me, ChatGPT came out of the blue like a magic trick. It's a technology that is like the first time I saw the interface of OS X debuted or the iPhone introduction.
It's basically the technological level of the movie Her but come to real life. And seemingly overnight. Science fiction is just science and not fiction.
And I was thinking: Someone like Tim Cook, not a rube and paid hundreds of millions a year and goes to conferences with the Illuminati types and retreats with the tech elite, must be aware that technology like this exists before the general public.
But then you see this very reactive hiring spree as if they found out at the same time as everyone else, and you start to wonder about them.

Please, do tell what it's like working for Apple's A.I. team and also let us know (in detail) how they are on the cutting edge. Thanks in advance! 😁I see many comments from people who do not have the necessary knowledge regarding A.I. nor work in the field saying that Apple is a few years behind.

This is the difference between Tim Cook and Steve Jobs. Tim is always too late. Too risk averse. Never makes aggressive acquisitions. Apple should’ve made efforts to develop Gen AI years ago. This slow-to-make-move attitude is why they are way behind iun cars too.
With Apple’s resources, he has no reason to fear failure. Apple might be too big to fail right now, but it is suffering a slow death.

You say that after seeing what Siri does (or does not)?I see many comments from people who do not have the necessary knowledge regarding A.I. nor work in the field saying that Apple is a few years behind. In fact, you have no idea what youʼre talking about.

Late as usual, unfortunately. They focus too much on Camera and not improving AI and Machine learning in the devices are too hidden and unseen. This causes people to think it doesn't exist. People want to see AI to believe it exists. Siri is the least AI because people only use it to set a timer. lol
Well, at least we won’t have to worry about Apple rushing to port risky AI technology. Heaven knows they will be dead last, but in this case, it’s actually beneficial. 🫥
