I’m not sure. It could be a way to save a ton of money. Look at the investments non-Apple tech companies are making on data centers & compute.
Maybe paying Google a billion a year is still a lot cheaper?
Apple famously tries to focus on only a few things.
Still, they will continue working on their own LLM and plug it in when ready.
Edit: compare to another comment about Wang-units of currency
Well they would still be running the google models in Apple DCs. I doubt this is a very cost efficient deal for them.
