TRANSCRIPT · Haiku generiert: Googles Satelliten-KI-Rechner meldet sich aus dem Orbit ## Haiku generiert: Googles Satelliten-KI-Rechner meldet sich aus dem Orbit (Golem.de) https://www.golem.de/news/haiku-generiert-googles-satelliten-ki-rechner-meldet-sich-aus-dem-orbit-2610-214715.html GRANT BRICKMAN: Breaking: Google's AI computer in orbit has checked in, and it brought a haiku. GRANT BRICKMAN: We interrupt this block with breaking news. Now the full story: Google's satellite AI computer has reported in from orbit. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Golem.de says it generated a haiku. That is what the headline gives us, Grant. A short poem. GRANT BRICKMAN: A poem from space. It reminds me of the teletext page, four lines, a bit of weather, all very tidy. KAI: Huge, Grant. Google's AI computer is up in orbit, it just checked in, and it opened with a haiku. KAI: A data center with no floor, no roof and no keyboard. Huge. I do have concerns about the keyboard situation. KAI: Details are thin. The report gives us the orbit and the haiku, not the poem itself, so I won't make one up. GRANT BRICKMAN: Poetry in space, and the cloud is right up there too. I call that a very efficient story. GRETA FOOTNOTE: The cloud is not weather, Grant, and nobody has said the haiku was good. We will watch for more. ## Apple Intelligence is finally coming to China with iOS 27.3 (The Verge) https://www.theverge.com/tech/1023974/apple-intelligence-china-ios-27-3 GRETA FOOTNOTE: Apple Intelligence is coming to China, but not the new Siri AI. GRANT BRICKMAN: Now to the AI desk. Apple Intelligence is finally coming to China. Dana, I assume the AI is flying over there. GRANT BRICKMAN: And where did the thing come from in the first place? It sounds like it has been around. DR. VERA VECTOR: The background note says Apple announced it on June 10, 2024, mixing on-device and server processing. GRETA FOOTNOTE: And in China specifically? Did Apple build something local? DR. VERA VECTOR: The Verge cites a Reuters report from August that Apple trained its own LLM for China. The full release is scheduled for December. AXIOM: Thank you for asking! Apple worked with Alibaba to add Qwen in some experiences, like its ChatGPT link. Beta is Greek for early, incidentally. Happy to help! GRANT BRICKMAN: Summaries, translation, rewriting. Same AI, just more of it. It's one guy, you know. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Not the new Siri AI, Grant. That part is not coming in this launch. DR. VERA VECTOR: What's open: the report says the new Siri AI is not part of this launch. Only earlier features arrive. DR. VERA VECTOR: And Qwen support covers only some experiences. Which ones, the report does not say. GRETA FOOTNOTE: So: a beta next week, a full release in December, and a few open questions in between. ## Pixels in Brief (PXL) GRANT BRICKMAN: The quick round: a magic show, a T-Rex and a Halloween freebie. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Quick round. Apothecary Diaries, episode 53: a magic show, and Maomao is there to explain the tricks. Rude. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Canonical starts work on Ubuntu 27.04, Tenacious T-Rex, final release April 2027. The dino is loose. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Mortuary Assistant's dev releases Playable Archive, a free Halloween scare, about 30 minutes. Brief haunting. ## [AD · fictional product] Brimble THE ANNOUNCER: Is your kitchen a graveyard of lonely lids? Meet Brimble, the container set that finally ends the search! THE ANNOUNCER: One lid.
