Apple acqui-hires AI startup from ex-Google NotebookLM team
Original: Apple acqui-hires AI startup founded by former NotebookLM developers
Apple has acqui-hired an AI startup founded by former developers of Google's NotebookLM, according to a report by 9to5Mac. The deal brings the startup's team in-house rather than purchasing the company outright, a common tactic for Apple as it moves to strengthen its artificial intelligence capabilities. Details about the startup, the size of the team, and the terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Why now: Apple's ongoing push into AI and its pattern of acqui-hiring small startups draw attention to how it plans to compete with rivals like Google and OpenAI.
