Quotes:
Mediatek revealed on Wednesday that it will release a next-generation
chip that harnesses Meta’s generative AI system, known as Llama 2.
Qualcomm announced a similar partnership with the social media giant
in July.

Meta isn’t the only company working on bringing generative AI to
smartphones. Google recently declared that it managed to run a
lightweight version of PaLM 2, its latest large language model, on
mobile devices.

That will be a big leap forward when your friendly AI is running on a
smartphone.
Like having an always-present advisor saying 'Don't do that, you
are being silly!'.  :)
