WWDC 2024: Apple Intelligence

John Gruber shares an under-reported tidbit from Apple’s many ���Apple Intelligence��� reveals:

The most unheralded aspect of Apple Intelligence isthat the data centers Apple is building for PrivateCloud Compute are not only carbon neutral, but areoperating entirely on renewable energy sources. That���sextraordinary, and I believe unique in the entire industry.

LLMs are crazy-expensive across many dimensions, including environmental cost. Great to hear at least one company is tackling this head-on.

As usual, John also has lots of other insights on the announcements.
