Meta advanced its open source AI with a sequel to the Segment Anything Model, enhancing image segmentation with memory attention for video applications using minimal data and compute. Apple Intelligence delayed its official release to iOS 18.1 in October but launched developer previews on MacOS Sequoia, iOS 18, and iPadOS 18, accompanied by a detailed 47-page paper revealing extensive pretraining on 6.3T tokens and use of Cloud TPUs rather than Apple Silicon. The paper highlights improvements in instruction following, reasoning, and writing through post-training and synthetic data. Benchmarks show Apple’s model scores lower than Llama 3, but with trusted human evaluations. Additionally, Meta released Llama 3.1 with a 405B parameter model, marking a significant open-source frontier model release.
