Ook Apple zet in op AI. Ontwikkelingen tonen dat Apple Siri diverse AI mogelijkheden wil geven: Siri Natural Language Generation. TvOS zal als eerste platform de opties bieden, zo meldt platform 9to5Mac maart 2023:
In the latest tvOS 16.4 beta, Apple has enabled a new framework for “Siri Natural Language Generation” capabilities. As it currently stands, Apple is only using natural language generation for telling jokes with Siri on Apple TV. The company is experimenting with how language generation could be used for timers, as well.
Siri en de AI-upgrade
AI tool ChatGPT is de reden voor de stijgende interesse van de slimme tech en na Google en Microsoft voelt ook Apple de druk dit aan te gaan bieden in hun tools:
Currently, Siri is powered by a system that’s based on templates, rather than any sort of language-generating artificial intelligence. As yesterday’s report noted, this has led to significant engineering and scaling challenges for Siri over the last decade.
There’s no timeline on when Apple will expand its current natural language generation technology beyond Apple TV. This is essentially Apple’s way of quietly and slowly beta-testing its first foray into this sort of AI technology. These features could also have a server-side component enabling or disabling the feature, allowing Apple to fine-tune testing in public.
Onemorething.nl meldt maart 2023:
Als het goed is, krijgen we binnenkort de tvOS 16.4-update officieel voorgeschoteld en kunnen we zelf kijken hoe de vernieuwde Siri presteert. De kans dat de iPad, iPhone, Mac en Apple Watch later aan de beurt zijn, is zeer groot.
