Hi, this is Yifan from Silicon Valley, your #techAsia host this week. Like many tech reporters, it has been a crazy busy few weeks for me as every major player in the space, from OpenAI to Google, unveiled their latest AI developments.
And this week is Apple’s time to shine. At its annual developer conference, WWDC, the iPhone maker finally gave us a sneak peek of how it intends to leverage generative AI. By teaming up with OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Apple promised its next-generation devices will be more like an intelligent personal assistant that can help with everything from rewriting emails to editing photos.
The long-awaited unveiling of its AI strategy pushed Apple’s stock price to an all-time high and many are cheering Apple Intelligence as the catalyst for AI to be truly adopted by the masses.
