The promise is from Apple, not OpenAI, and likely contractual.

If OpenAI actually went against that, Apple would unleash the mother of all lawsuits.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It seems like this is an orchestration layer that runs on Apple Silicon, given that ChatGPT integration looks like an API call from that. It's not clear to me what is being computed on the "private cloud compute"?

If I understand correctly there's three things here: - on-device models, which will power any tasks it's able to, including summarisation and conversation with Siri - private compute models (still controlled by apple), for when it wants to do something bigger, that requires more compute - external LLM APIs (only chatgpt for now), for when the above decide that it would be better for the given prompt, but always asks…

The second point makes sense. It gives Apple optionality to cut off the external LLMs at a later date if they want to. I wonder what % of requests will be handled by the private cloud models vs. local. I would imagine TTS and ASR is local for latency reasons. Natural language classifiers would certainly run on-device. I wonder if summarization and rewriting will though - those are more complex and definitely benefit from larger models.

I have only one question: can I turn it off?

Why? Things are secure (outside of the explicit OpenAI calls via Siri) and mostly seem subtly integrated. You don't have to use each feature, but why blindly disable all AI having not even tried it?

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…

No, but they said it'll be available for audit by independent experts.

There has never been a better time to move to Linux. Have you tried Omakub? Manjaro? Mint? Ubuntu 24? These are polished and complete alternatives and your favorite app probably has a Linux build already!

| These are polished and complete alternatives

Are they though?

I just setup ubuntu 24 for my son to play games and it's comparatively a very unpolished experience. I'm being very polite when I say that.

I am excited to try Siri with this technology enabled. I can't really remember a time when siri ever really worked, although recently I actually got her to play a song on youtube for me after a few attempts and was pretty pleased with that. Outside of "set my alarm for 4:30" kind of stuff, she's never really been that useful, and if you are even kind of disabled, this feature can be really useful to the point of life changing if it is done properly.

No transcripts in Voice Memos? The one feature I was surprised hasn‘t already been there for years, heavily rumored before this WWDC, and now nothing?

From MacRumors: > Notes can record and transcribe audio. When your recording is finished, Apple Intelligence automatically generates a summary. Recording and summaries coming to phone calls too. So the functionality exists, maybe just not in the Voice Memos app?

That would be great, the three or so articles I read said nothing about it. Thanks!

What broken Sam Altman promises are you referring to?
