AI IN THE NEWS

Apple acquires AI company to speed up its AI functionality…

Apple has acquired Datakalab, a French startup specializing in AI compression and computer vision technology, to enhance its AI capabilities and potentially integrate innovative features into iOS 18.

📫️ The details:

  • Datakalab is known for its efficient, low-power deep learning algorithms and "Privacy by Design" approach, aligning with Apple's privacy values.

  • The startup has previously collaborated with the French government and Disney, indicating its proficiency in practical AI applications.

  • Apple's acquisition strategy includes integrating Datakalab's technology into its products, as seen with past acquisitions that led to features like Face ID

🧠 Our thoughts:

This acquisition is classic Apple.

They're always searching for tech that can give their devices an edge, especially if it can be done without compromising user privacy. With Datakalab's tech, we might see the next iPhone doing some pretty nifty AI tricks without breaking a sweat—or a data privacy law.

Meta Announces Horizon OS…

Meta Platforms has rebranded its virtual and augmented reality software development kit and operating system as Meta Horizon OS, previously known as the Meta Quest Platform.

📫️ The details:

  • Meta Horizon OS supports third-party headset manufacturers like Microsoft, Asus, and Lenovo, expanding its compatibility beyond Meta's own devices

  • Originally developed for Oculus devices, the platform has evolved significantly since its inception, now running on the Android operating system and supporting a wide range of VR applications

  • The rebranding to Meta Horizon OS was announced on April 22, 2024, marking a significant shift in Meta's strategy towards a more inclusive ecosystem for VR and AR development

🧠 Our thoughts:

Although the product has been developing for a decade, Zuckerberg announced the update excitingly.

The style is personal and mimics TikTok-style green screen videos that we often see.

Mark understands people don’t want overly edited, corporate-style announcement videos.

People want relatablity. We believe more companies and CEOs will follow suit.

Watch the announcement here.

It's also fascinating to see how modern conflicts in hip-hop involve lyrical skill, technological innovation, and strategic release timing.

This track could set a new precedent in how feuds are fought in the digital age, making us wonder what the response will look like.
