TECH
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported over the weekend that Apple and OpenAI are “finalizing terms” for a partnership that would see OpenAI’s tech integrated into iOS 18. Apple has reportedly held similar talks with Google regarding its Gemini tech; these discussions remain ongoing.
Replacing Sutskever is Jakub Pachocki, OpenAI’s director of research. Pachocki joined in 2017 as a research lead on OpenAI’s Dota team — the team that built an AI system capable of defeating human players at Valve’s Dota 2 strategy game. Pachocki then became research lead at OpenAI’s reasoning and science of deep learning orgs before being promoted to principal of research.
PROGRAMMING AND DESIGN
Google introduced upgraded versions of its Gemini AI model, including a public preview of Gemini 1.5 Pro with a 2 million token context window at I/O 2024. For Android developers, the company highlighted Gemini Nano, an on-device AI model for faster local processing. Flutter and Dart also received updates, with Flutter now supporting compilation to WebAssembly and Dart introducing the initial stages of macros.
Most generative AI projects fail to reach production or deliver significant revenue. Successful GenAI projects prioritize understanding business problems before selecting tools, recognize GenAI is part of a larger tech stack, keep humans involved to guide AI, and rely on trustworthy, traceable data for the best results.
