Let's dive in!

We couldn't resist dipping our toes into the buzz surrounding Apple's recent WWDC keynote. An intriguing change of pace was observed: Apple seemed to play a game of hide 'n' seek with the term "AI" - the big 'A' word was nowhere to be found! Quite the departure from the AI gabfest we're used to seeing at such tech galas.

Call it what you want – "machine learning" was the go-to phrase this time around, a more discreet, yet accurate moniker.

Instead of giving AI the usual star billing, Apple spotlights the practical gems they've conjured up using the tech. Here's a quick peek into the ML-powered features they unwrapped:

  1. iOS 17 gets a language model upgrade for smoother autocorrect and sentence completion.

  2. AirPods now pack a personalized volume feature adjusting to your environment and listening patterns.

  3. The Smart Stack feature on watchOS learns to show you what you need when you need it.

  4. Journal App uses ML to dish out smart prompts for users.

  5. 3D Avatars for Video Calls on Vision Pro: Apple showcased advanced ML techniques for generating 3D avatars for video calls on the newly launched Vision Pro.

  1. Speech recognition gets an accuracy boost with a new transformer model.

  2. The M2 Ultra Chip, with a beastly 32-core Neural Engine, takes a leap in AI application.

Apple's on a roll, striving to pack more AI magic into its devices, neatly sidestepping the data privacy potholes that cloud-based AI stumbles into. They're playing their own game, marching to their own beat, right down to their custom silicon chips. 

Up next, we journey into the world of 3D digital content with Tafi. They've announced a text-to-3D character engine, an innovative technology making it easier and faster to create high-quality 3D characters, catering to professionals and hobbyists alike. The foundation model, enriched by a massive 3D dataset from the Genesis character platform, generates billions of 3D character variations, showcasing an exceptional blend of creativity and AI.

Last but not least, Carbon Health's new tool integrates GPT AI into the doctor's office, helping practitioners cut down on paperwork and focus on patient care. By transcribing patient appointments and intelligently generating medical records and billing codes, the tool promises more patient-face time and less administrative burden for providers. Plus, it could potentially enhance care and make practitioners' jobs more rewarding.
