Apple Intelligence No Longer Coming to Europe | AI News

KEY TAKEAWAYS
1. OpenAI acquires Rockset to enhance real-time data analytics capabilities.
2. Apple postpones rollout of Apple Intelligence AI features in Europe due to regulatory uncertainties.
3. Target becomes the first major retailer to deploy generative AI with its new Store Companion chatbot.
In today's episode of The AI Briefing, we cover three major developments in the AI industry. First, OpenAI has acquired Rockset, a real-time analytics database company, in a move to enhance its data processing capabilities. This acquisition aims to improve the performance of OpenAI's AI products by enabling faster and more accurate responses from models like ChatGPT. This could lead to a better user experience and provide enterprise customers with advanced tools for real-time insights and intelligent applications.
Next, Apple has announced it will delay the rollout of its Apple Intelligence AI features in Europe. The postponement is attributed to uncertainties surrounding the EU's Digital Markets Act and concerns about potential compromises in user privacy and data security. Apple is working with the European Commission to find a solution while hundreds of millions of European users wait for these groundbreaking features.
Lastly, Target is pioneering in the retail sector by rolling out an AI-powered chatbot called Store Companion to nearly 2,000 stores nationwide. Designed to assist store employees, the chatbot provides instant answers to procedural questions, thereby freeing up time for employees to engage with customers and improve the in-store experience. Developed in-house, Store Companion is currently being piloted in 400 locations, setting the stage for a fuller rollout and showcasing how generative AI can drive retail growth.
