Major AI Partnerships Reshape Tech Landscape
According to Last Week in AI #332, two significant partnerships are reshaping the AI industry’s infrastructure and consumer offerings.
Apple Integrates Google’s Gemini
Apple is reportedly partnering with Google to integrate Gemini AI technology into its ecosystem, according to the newsletter. The collaboration will power Apple’s AI features, including updates to Siri, Apple’s voice assistant. This marks a notable shift for Apple, which has traditionally developed core technologies in-house.
OpenAI’s Massive Compute Deal
In a separate development, OpenAI has signed a compute deal with Cerebras worth approximately $10 billion, as reported in the newsletter. This substantial agreement underscores the massive computational requirements for training and running advanced AI models. Cerebras specializes in AI accelerator hardware designed for large-scale machine learning workloads.
These partnerships highlight two key trends in the AI industry: tech giants increasingly collaborating rather than building everything internally, and the critical importance of specialized computing infrastructure to support the next generation of AI capabilities.
