      I say it was a condition of the contract to provide functionality to Apple Intelligence. I would be surprised if they’re not trying to take a stake on OpenAI too.

      @@riasatabeer6245 I think both of them are tryna acquire OpenAI. Both of these “Observer” roles are just long game plan for acquisition play for them. They’re gonna wait out for the regulatory energy to die down, then throw OpenAI a stack of money they can’t refuse to keep the cost of expensive AI training going. Both Apple and Microsoft would be foolish enough not to get their hands on OpenAI if given the chance

    Apple is a windfall for openAI. The training data alone is best in the industry — nice clean tokens from Apple. Good to hear about he baseline Apple due diligence to vet the other closed-source providers. As the general internet gets further poisoned, LLMs whether inside a company or behind a ‘trusted’ paywall will be the ‘internet,’ further siloing the data we consume. Apple’s on-device LLMs will further be refined as they slowly becomes a better ‘personal’ agents, and guardrailed into their specific actions within the iOS. It’s a new world.

The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity. Before those challenges even come into play, though, there’s a more basic problem: A lot of the projects being announced may never get built in the first place. With billions of dollars in AI infrastructure investment at stake, separating realistic projects from speculative ones is becoming increasingly important.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Rebecca Bellan and Tim De Chant are joined by Brent Nelson, senior managing director of markets and strategy at Ascend Analytics, to separate the data center projects that are likely to get built from the ones that may never get off the ground.
