🥽 Apple Vision Pro Headset to release February 2nd

Our Report: Apple's Vision Pro headset is touted to go on sale starting February 2nd in the US, with a starting price of $3,499—making it Apple’s most significant product launch since the iPhone in 2007.

🔑 Key Points:

  • The headset features advanced technology including an exterior display (which shows a person’s eyes within the headset) and a new processing chip—which allows the headset to process information from the outside world in less than a blink of an eye.

  • This is one of Apple’s most expensive product launches, and wealthy tech enthusiasts who buy the product will be able to browse the web, chat with friends, and watch movies in a resolution beyond 4K.

  • The product will compete directly with Meta Platforms in the mixed-reality market, although we imagine the Vision Pro to be in a league of its own due to the price tag.

🤨 Why you should care: Apple's foray into the mixed-reality market with the Vision Pro represents a bold move to capture market share in a space currently dominated by Meta—although, due to the price tag, and the fact it has to be plugged into a power source at all times, we’re particularly unsure how this product launch will go.

In Partnership with OctoML

2x lower token prices on OctoAI for fine-tuned LLMs 

Fine-tuned LLMs are the best way to create highly customized experiences in your applications, and a smaller fine-tuned Mixtral 7B can even outperform larger, general-purpose models like GPT 4 in quality and cost for specific use cases.

But popular LLM serving platforms charge 2x for inference APIs on fine-tuned models. Say no to excessive taxation and bring your fine tunes to OctoAI!

  • Host any fine-tuned Llama 2, Code Llama, or Mi(s/x)tral models on OctoAI 

  • Run inferences at the same low per-token pricing as the default Chat and Instruct models in OctoAI

  • Experience the same super-fast latency available for default models

Read the blog to learn about bringing your fine-tuned LLMs to OctoAI, or sign up and try the default LLMs for free.

SMART HOMES & MORE

🌍 LG Building the ultimate AI-powered ecosystem

  • Their advancements also extend with a vision for AI-integrated vehicles, transforming driving into a more comfortable and interactive experience (see more on this from VW below).
