According to recent reports, Apple is not currently in talks with Meta regarding a potential AI deal due to the longstanding rivalry between the two tech giants. While both stories could technically be accurate, it is widely believed that the second story holds more truth. It appears that Apple and Meta will not be collaborating on AI or any other projects in the near future.
The Wall Street Journal recently reported that discussions had taken place between Apple and Meta about linking Apple’s products to Meta’s AI technology, similar to the partnership Apple already has with OpenAI. However, Bloomberg has stated that any talks between the two companies occurred months ago and have since been abandoned with no future prospects. Some sources within Apple have expressed concerns about Meta’s privacy practices, which may have contributed to their decision not to collaborate with the company moving forward.
Despite this, there are indications that Apple may be positioning itself as a mediator between its users and various AI platforms, including Meta. While the potential collaboration may not come to fruition, the ongoing feud between these two tech giants continues to captivate both consumers and industry insiders alike. The public will continue to observe this rivalry and wonder what might have been if these two companies had chosen to work together on AI projects instead of competing against each other.
