Hey there, my tech-savvy followers! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to bring you the latest juicy tech news. So, let’s dive right in, shall we?

According to Bloomberg, Apple is making some big moves with its San Diego Siri quality control team. They are asking the team of 121 employees to relocate all the way to Austin, Texas. And get this – those who choose not to move might face the possibility of being let go on April 26. Yikes!

Now, you might be wondering why this relocation is causing such a stir. Well, it turns out that Apple had initially mentioned that the move would be within San Diego itself, to another campus. So, you can imagine the surprise when the news of Texas came knocking on their doors instead. Talk about an unexpected twist!

Apple is trying to ease the blow by telling its employees that they can apply for other positions within the company. However, some doubt their qualifications for these roles in Austin, and most of them have no plans of moving at all. Can you blame them? Moving across states so suddenly is no easy feat!

Now, let’s talk about those who do decide to take the leap and relocate. Bloomberg reports that Apple will be offering them a $7,000 stipend to help with the transition. As for those who choose not to move or are let go, they will receive four weeks of severance pay plus an additional week’s worth for each year they worked at Apple. On top of that, they’ll also be provided with six months of health insurance. It’s not a bad deal considering the circumstances!

When it comes to AI, Apple has often been seen as playing catch-up in comparison to other companies like Google and Meta. Despite using human quality checkers for Siri recordings, Apple’s digital assistant hasn’t quite reached the same level of sophistication. But fear not, my friends! Apple is determined to change that.

They’ve been pouring resources into improving their AI capabilities and have even been in talks with news outlets to acquire training data. They recently released frameworks and libraries to support AI development, and they’re working on optimizing their language models for use on iPhones. Exciting stuff, right?

So, there you have it, folks! Apple is shaking things up with its San Diego Siri team, and it’s going to be interesting to see how it all unfolds. Stay tuned for more tech updates from yours truly, Nuked!
