According to individuals with insider knowledge, Ke Yang, an Apple Inc. executive tasked with the development of AI-driven web search capabilities, is on the verge of exiting the company to take up a position at Meta Platforms. This move underscores the ongoing trend of high-profile departures from Apple's AI division. Merely a few weeks prior, Ke Yang had been promoted to lead the AKI (Answers, Knowledge, and Information) team. This team is dedicated to crafting features that will imbue the Siri voice assistant with functionalities more akin to those of ChatGPT. The AKI team stands at the heart of a significant Siri redesign that Apple aims to introduce in March of the following year. This redesign represents one of Apple's broad-scale initiatives to breathe new life into its AI operations, which have been facing challenges.
