ETtech Explainer: Is Apple’s ReALM better than OpenAI’s GPT-4?
Economic Times
·
1y ago
Medial
Apple has revealed some details about its artificial intelligence plans in a recent research paper. The company discussed its large language model (LLM) called Reference Resolution As Language Modeling (ReALM) and how it surpasses OpenAI's GPT-4. ReALM focuses on resolving references, such as ambiguous or contextual words, to create a better understanding in AI chatbots. Apple's models have shown improvements over existing systems, including a 5% gain for on-screen references. While ReALM performs well in specific benchmarks, it is not yet clear if it outperforms GPT-4 overall.

Apple has developed an AI system called ReaLM (Reference Resolution As Language Modeling) to enhance interactions with virtual assistants like Siri. ReaLM outperforms other large language models, such as GPT-4, in understanding context and referring expressions. The system can interpret ambiguous references and extract information from on-screen images. Unlike the GPT series, which primarily uses natural images, ReaLM can better understand on-screen information. Apple's entry into the conversational AI race signifies their commitment to AI development. Details on integrating ReaLM into Apple products are yet to be announced.

Apple is reportedly in advanced discussions with the Murugappa Group and Tata group's Titan Company to assemble and manufacture sub-components for iPhone camera modules. Camera modules are composed of various components such as lenses, image sensors, and digital signal processing. While some components can be localized, others, like camera lenses, may be difficult to replace. Currently, Apple relies on suppliers like Sony, Samsung, and Omnivision for image sensors. The move towards localizing camera module assembly in India could potentially attract manufacturers to build a complete local value chain.

Medial
In a recent study from UC San Diego, researchers conducted a Turing test to determine how well AI models like GPT-4 could convince participants they were human. Surprisingly, a 1960s computer program called ELIZA outperformed GPT-3.5 and achieved a success rate of 27%. GPT-4 had a success rate of 41%, second only to actual humans who had a success rate of 63%. The study raises questions about using the Turing test as an accurate measure of AI model performance and highlights the importance of linguistic style and socio-emotional traits in determining human-likeness.
