Apple Unveils OpenELM Series for Small On-Device Tasks

Apple's AI drive has been modest, to say the least, especially when compared to the fast growth of its competitors, Microsoft and Google.

While Samsung, Google, and even Nothing have a wealth of AI features on their various devices, iPhones have remained unaffected.

It has lately been in negotiations with Google and OpenAI about a potential arrangement that would allow its AI models to be used on iPhones.

Apple researchers have now released a family of four lightweight AI models based on the Hugging Face model library.

The model can operate on-device, indicating that it will be used in the future on devices such as the iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
