to me the pitch is compelling. i don't want to use any more fucking apps -- i want to talk to my computer, like i talk to chatgpt. there's real opportunity for a revolution here.

i don't think apple or google are well-positioned to build this revolution, because they are too conservative and too bought-in on the old interaction model.

(if jobs were still around, different story. alas.)

I think Apple would, all their devices always have the neutral engine chip, they just need to extend more RAM to it to support larger models

they already have a habit of replicating the most useful apps natively

i don’t see why not here

replace siri once and for all, while running a local llm server for apps to tie into instead of an api to chatgpt

i'd love to be surprised, but i just don't think apple has the necessary software chops/vision anymore to pull it off.

Also they've painted themselves into a corner with privacy. To enable LLM in iOS they will need to walk back their privacy stance to some degree.
