🤖 AI = Apple Intelligence: Here's all you need to know!
At WWDC 2024, Apple presented its concept for integrating artificial intelligence into its products. Apple calls it "Apple Intelligence". The AI features will be available in the new operating systems (iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia). Apple uses both local models and its own cloud servers with Apple chips for the AI functions.
Here is an overview of the functions of Apple Intelligence:
Language processing: Create, Understand, Rewrite, correct, and summarize texts in apps like Mail
Image processing: Create and personalize images in different styles
Automation: Automatic processing of tasks in apps, Understanding the context to create personalized responses, Personal data is not stored in the cloud.
Siri improvements: New visual design, Better speech and text recognition, Better context understanding
According to Apple, Apple Intelligence requires an iPhone 15 Pro or Macs and iPads with Apple chips.

Our thoughts
Apple may not have presented anything fundamentally NEW, but... Apple is the only company that has direct access to Apple users through its ecosystem. That's like a superpower.
In our opinion, Apple Intelligence is a great move! Let us tell you why we think so. We especially like the combination of AI and data privacy.
Apple's "Private Cloud Compute" is not like any other cloud services. It's really private. Apple can't access your data. Security researchers have access to verify Apple's security guarantees. In addition, Apple uses its own server hardware with Apple chips. Apple has been working for years to make its own chips secure.

😮 Hollywood: Ashton Kutcher wants to replace humans with AI
Actor Ashton Kutcher advocates AI in the film industry. He thinks it is the future of filmmaking. According to him, a lot of money could be saved by replacing stunt people, writers, and other people with AI. When experimenting with AI applications, he realized you can create any footage you want.
He also said that the footage could easily be used for a major motion picture or television show. In addition, Kutcher said he expects that anyone will soon be able to use AI to create their own custom movies in professional quality.
Some Hollywood colleagues criticize him loudly for his statements. Caitie Delaney, a former writer for the animated series Rick and Morty, said: "When you take ANY humans off of a collaborative and creative pursuit you literally lose the humanity. [...] A hollow, dumbass, pointless shell. TV will have the same artistic merit as dish soap."
Our thoughts
Is AI-generated entertainment the future? We think "YES". Let us tell you why we think so. First of all, in business, the winner is the one who offers the best balance between price and performance. That's the way it is, whether you like it or not!
Will humanity be lost? Yes, definitely! But do you really have a personal connection to the human actors? No, these are people you have never met. Will people watch AI-generated movies? We think "YES".
There are already tools like OpenAI's Sora, Kling AI, or Showrunner.
✍🏽 What is your opinion on AI-generated entertainment? Write it in the comments.

🌅 Stability AI unveils Stable Diffusion 3 Medium!
The AI company Stability AI has just released version 3 of its image generator Stable Diffusion. You can download the weights under a non-commercial research community license on HuggingFace.
With two billion parameters, Stable Diffusion 3 Medium is smaller than the full Stable Diffusion 3 with eight billion parameters, which was announced in April. However, it is designed to run locally on PCs with standard processors.
You can test Stable Diffusion 3 Medium in a demo UI on HuggingFace.
Example: "Generate an image of a running lion. Make it realistic."
Generated with Stable Diffusion 3 Medium
Our thoughts
Our first tests show that the model doesn't work so well. Spooky images often appear. Try it yourself. We mostly use Leonardo.Ai or Microsoft Copilot to generate AI images. Which image generators do you use?
