Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Apple collectively mentioned the term “AI” almost 200 times in their latest earnings calls, up from less than 40 mentions a year ago.
Clearly, Alphabet, Meta and Microsoft are much more involved in the AI craze than Amazon and Apple.
On Wednesday, Google unveiled its next generation AI system PaLM 2, a so-called ‘state-of-the-art language model’, which is, says Google’s Zoubin Ghahramani “good at math, coding, reasoning, multilingual translation and natural language generation.”
No doubt Apple is also spending a significant amount of time and money on AI. But as is typical for Apple they won’t talk much about any of that until they have something ready … which might actually be never if you look at how their much rumored EV efforts are going.
