Apple Engineers Join to Elevate AI in Qualcomm's Chips
In 2021, the firm recruited a number of engineers who had previously worked for Apple to assist with the construction of laptop processors. These chips are now available for purchase and are assisting with the powering of artificial intelligence elements in Microsoft's Windows.
The customized computing technology that Qualcomm has dubbed "Oryon" is now being included into the company's mobile phone processors for the very first time. This technology was produced by the team that was responsible for the development of the technology.
Snapdragon 8 Elite Reengineered for Generative AI
Additionally, the Snapdragon 8 Elite has had its internal components redesigned by the company to better manage operations like picture and text generation.
To access certain components of the chip, Qualcomm will provide software developers with additional tools beyond what is already accessible in Android, Alphabet's operating system.
