Tom Merritt: 我认为苹果公司可能需要通过收购来达到人工智能的均势。虽然他们收购了很多小型人工智能公司,但这些收购更多地体现在学术研究上,而不是实际的产品发布。我认为 Perplexity 更适合作为合作伙伴,因为 Perplexity 的企业文化与苹果不太相符。苹果公司可能会选择与 Perplexity 合作,为用户提供更多知情选择,就像他们已经与 ChatGPT 合作一样。此外,我认为收购 Thinking Machines 并让 Mira Muradi 加入苹果公司听起来更靠谱,因为 Mira Muradi 感觉更适合苹果的企业文化。 Rob Dunwood: 我认为如果不是 Perplexity,苹果也肯定需要收购其他公司。苹果公司从 Google 获得 200 亿美元的默认搜索引擎费用,这是一笔巨大的收入。苹果在人工智能领域明显落后于其他公司,他们需要迎头赶上。我认为苹果需要进行一次大的收购,以快速进入人工智能搜索领域。虽然 Perplexity 看起来与苹果不太契合,但苹果过去也曾做出过类似的收购,比如 Beats。无论如何,苹果公司必须采取行动,以应对未来可能出现的反垄断裁决,并确保在人工智能搜索领域保持竞争力。
