Apple’s recent announcement of a partnership with OpenAI for Siri integration has garnered significant attention. However, a closer look at the technical documents reveals an unexpected collaboration with Google. Apple’s AI models are being developed using a combination of in-house GPUs and Google’s cloud-based TPUs. These specialized AI chips, which Google has been refining for a decade, offer performance comparable to Nvidia’s H100 AI chips. The use of Google’s hardware suggests a deeper reliance on external resources than initially apparent. This development highlights the complex landscape of AI partnerships and the ongoing race for technological supremacy in the field. While Apple’s public focus was on the OpenAI deal, the behind-the-scenes use of Google’s technology underscores the intricate web of collaborations driving AI advancements in Silicon Valley.
