"Apple won't use user data to develop and train AI. And Apple lives in a world where AI is going to be table stakes in any software or hardware moving forward." Call it counter-programming. A tech palate cleanse for all the election and trade war talk. This week, Rob and Doug tackle the latest AI developments: vibe coding, Cohere's (temporary?) LLM pole position, AI data centres from Telus (powered by Nvidia), and Apple's delayed intelligence.
