Apple is reportedly integrating AI-powered features into the Apple Vision Pro to enhance spatial computing initiatives that revolutionize user experiences.

Key Details:
  • Apple Intelligence is a new suite of AI features built into your iPhone, iPad, and MacBook to help you complete tasks effortlessly.

  • Apple Intelligence boasts writing tools, custom emojis, and a smart Siri with ChatGPT integrations to automate mundane tasks like compiling a grocery list, managing emails, or crafting text replies.

  • Extended Reality (XR) creates immersive experiences by blending the real world with computer-generated elements.

  • During the 2024 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC24), Apple announced visionOS 2, the second-generation operating system for the Apple Vision Pro, to support more robust XR applications.

  • visionOS 2 will boast AI-powered features such as creating spatial photos with images and intuitive hand gestures to quickly access vital information at a glance.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • visionOS 2 isnā€™t tied to the Apple Vision Pro; itā€™s tied to Appleā€™s spatial computer hardware, in which the core basis of visionOS 2 is easily transferable to other applications.

  • Apple plans to turn the Apple Vision Pro into a multiproduct business and shift to developing Augmented Reality (AR) glasses that aim to be more accessible and slimmer.

šŸ’µAmazon Ramps Up AI Development Spending

Amazon is ramping up AI development spending by hiring senior executives from AI agent startup Adept and licensing the companyā€™s technology to enhance Amazonā€™s AI models and training datasets.

Key Details:
  • Adept is an enterprise AI tool that executes manual, repetitive, end-to-end workflows across the tools your teams use every day.

  • Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) refers to AI models that perform tasks as well as humans and exhibit human traits such as critical reasoning, intuition, consciousness, sentience, and emotional awareness.

  • Rohit Prasad, a senior vice president and head scientist who oversees Amazonā€™s AGI team, informed employees that the company hired Adept co-founder and CEO David Luan.

  • Luan will lead Amazonā€™s newly formed ā€œAGI Autonomyā€ division, reporting directly to Prasad.

  • Amazon also secured a licensing agreement to utilize Adeptā€™s technology, including multimodal AI models and refined datasets, to enhance the retail giantā€™s AI agent developments.

Why Itā€™s Important:
  • Amazon faces fierce competition from Big Tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and Meta, which rapidly integrate AI add-ons into their core products and services while giving businesses more access to language models through their public cloud offerings.

  • Amazon has invested over $4 billion to support Anthropic, a startup building reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Amazon plans to overhaul its digital assistant called Alexa with GenAI capabilities to compose emails and place orders.

AI RESEARCH

šŸ¦¾OpenAIā€™s New CriticGPT Model

OpenAI published a research paper exploring how to streamline AI model training by deploying ā€œAI criticsā€ to spot errors in AI model outputs.

OpenAI trained an AI model on GPT-4 called CriticGPT to assist human trainers in catching errors in ChatGPTā€™s code output.

The company discovered that when human trainers receive help from CriticGPT to review ChatGPTā€™s code outputs, they outperform traditional human trainers by 60%.

CriticGPT also caught 85% of inserted bugs in AI-generated code, compared to just 50% from human reviewers alone.

CriticGPT was trained on ā€œReinforcement Learning From Human Feedbackā€ (RLHF): a technique for aligning an AI agent to human preferences. RLHF incorporates human feedback into the training process to help AI agents self-learn more efficiently.
