So was there ever a deal with OpenAI? Nothing in the keynote mentioned them or needs them. If there isn’t a deal, I’d love to know how everyone claiming it was signed on the dotted line was led so far down that garden path.

Sam is there, and the presentation isn't yet finished: https://x.com/markgurman/status/1800198524031906258?ref_src=...

At some point I wonder if Apple might share compute across your devices so you can do things on low-power hardware like the Watch while leveraging the CPU on the phone, etc. If Apple's dedicated to on-device compute, this ends up being your own "private cloud" of sorts.

I am pretty unhappy with Apple doing the image generation, was really hoping that just would not happen.

But a lot of the other features actually seem useful without feeling shoehorned in. At least so far.

I am hoping that I can turn off the ability to use a server while keeping local processing, but curious what that would actually look like. Would it just say "sorry can't do that" or something? Is it that there is too much context and it can't happen locally or entire features that only work in the cloud?

Edit:

OK how they handle the ChatGPT integration I am happy with. Asks me each time if I want to do it.

However... using recipe generation as an example... is a choice.

This seems really cool. They said the models can scale to "private cloud compute" based on Apple Silicon which will be ensured by your device to run "publicly verifiable software" in order to guarantee no misuse of your data. I wonder if their server-side code will be open-source? That'd be positively surprising. Curious to see how this evolves. Anyway, overall looks really really cool. If it works as marketed, then…

You don't even have to buy a new device since it's backwards compatible with A17 Pro and M1, M2, M3 and M4. It feels like the integration of the services are using existing models and integrating the API used traditionally originally from AppleScript but, extending it to LLM or stable diffusion systems. It seems that they want the M4 as soon as possible though for the gaming and cloud pushes.

Siri will have ChatGPT integration (for free, apparently)

Apple (I reckon): Most people don’t know how to use AI well. It’s our responsibility to pare it all down and release features one by one selling each new software feature as part of next year’s hardware.

They depicted it working for the A17 through the M4, since those have significant AI-acceleration hardware. So, no.
