Even as we enter the last leg of the year, artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be an important discussion topic for corporations and governments alike. Apple has published new AI research where the researchers have highlighted how large language models (LLMs) can be run on limited storage devices, such as iPhones, instead of the internet, and still maintain their capabilities. This development may give the tech giant an edge over competitors. In other news, the former Justice Secretary Sir Robert Buckland is urging the government to increase its efforts to ensure deepfakes do not become a disrupting factor in the 2024 general election.

These inferences determine how LLMs respond to queries asked by a user. Typically these are computed over AI data centers on the cloud, but Apple claims it can be brought to smartphones, enhancing their ability significantly. If this research materializes into Apple bringing AI capabilities to its iPhones without compromising user data privacy, it can give the company a big advantage over rivals operating in the space.

"The future is here. It's happening. Unless the policymakers [in the UK] are showing some leadership on the need for a strong and effective domestic set of guardrails - plus international work - then we are going to be behind the curve," he told BBC.
