Apple AI vs. Microsoft AI (lemmy.world)

Why are people happy or approving of AI on apple products, when it seems like the same thing was treated (rightly) horribly when Microsoft just did it.

Is Apple doing it better in some way? Both said it'll be local only, but then Apple is doing some cloud processing now. Do people really just trust Apple more???

Re: the cloud processing.

It looks like Apple has 3 models. 1 local, 2 cloud.

The cloud model is closed, light weight and the dumbest of the 3. The second model is Apple owned, in the cloud for more compute, and but also something that appears to not learn from the confidential data that people are submitting to it. So this things is probably better than the local model, but still much dumber than GPT or Gemini.

Third model is whatever external LLM you plug into it. OpenAI is the default. Any request to chat GPT throw a consent dialog before any data is sent.
