Apple Tests Generative AI Tools to Rival OpenAI's ChatGPT, Reports

According to Bloomberg News, Apple is developing artificial intelligence offerings rival to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard. This move has reportedly boosted Apple's shares by 2%, as the company aims to expand its AI capabilities and compete in the rapidly growing AI market.

As per the report, Apple has developed its own framework called "Ajax" to build large language models (LLMs). Additionally, the company is currently in the testing phase of a chatbot referred to by some engineers as "Apple GPT". This initiative demonstrates Apple's commitment to advancing its AI capabilities and exploring the potential of language-based technologies.

Under the guidance of John Giannandrea, Apple's head of machine learning and AI, and Craig Federighi, the top software engineering executive, multiple teams are actively engaged in this endeavor. They are collaboratively working towards the development and implementation of Apple's AI initiatives, including the creation of large language models and the testing of the chatbot "Apple GPT".

The company could make significant AI-related announcements next year, according to the report.
