Apple's Tim Cook, who shows a cautious stance on AI, has said in the past, ``Although AI technology has potential, there are still many problems to be solved,'' and so far Apple has not been active in AI development. Cook also acknowledged that Apple will incorporate AI into its products in the future, but commented, 'It will be done very carefully.'

However, in response to the announcement of a series of AI products by competitors such as Google's chat AI ``

Bard '' and Meta's large-scale language model `` Llama 2 '', Apple is also embarking on AI development, and Garman reports that multiple teams within Apple are collaborating on confidential projects on AI development.

Garman also reports that Apple is building a framework called 'Ajax' for developing large-scale language models. This 'Ajax' was first built in 2022 to integrate Apple's machine learning development, and was originally developed based on Google's machine learning framework ' Jax '.

Furthermore, based on this large-scale language model developed on Ajax, Apple's own chat AI has also been developed, and Garman reports that it is called 'Apple GPT' by some engineers. Developed experimentally by a small engineering team at the end of 2022, Apple GPT is basically a web application that reproduces Bard and ChatGPT, and is limited to access from within Apple.

Garman reports that Apple GPT is used by Apple employees to help them ``prototype future features based on trained data, summarize text, and answer questions''. On the other hand, Mr. Garman said, ``It is unknown how AI products such as Apple GPT will ultimately be provided to consumers,'' but for a major upgrade of Apple's assistant AI `` Siri '' It suggests that there is a possibility of introducing Apple GPT.

In addition, Apple is promoting the incorporation of various generated AIs, including Apple GPT, into daily work, and Garman said, ``AppleCare's support staff uses generated AI to assist users. I am convinced that Apple's AI development is just the beginning.'

It is said that Apple's AI-related products, including Apple GPT, will be carefully developed, such as measures against information leakage and generation of incorrect information, and may be announced for consumers as early as 2024.
