The following image which I have summarized is Core ML announced in Apple WWDC 2017(June 26 2017).

It seems that it contains many APIs that can be used easy in applications.

In the actual demo, it showed how easy to apply a by few lines of code.


Again,

By providing ML learning by Apple, app developers can easily apply ML without knowing it.

Perspective Apple, it can be applied to a lot of apps in the AppStore and maintain the same quality.

It is enough to reinforce the ecosystem. 

Apple's services revenue is gleaned from iTunes, iCloud, Apple Music, Apple Pay, Apple Care and the various App Stores.

Apple's last four quarters of service revenue total $27.804 billion. That figure puts it in 97th place ahead of Facebook's entire business at $27.64 billion.   - August 1. 2017

But I want to see if Apple pursue other monetary advantages like collecting data.



One more image. 

This image show Core ML's compatible and extensible.

This content was created when I saw iPhone X keynote .



First, let's look at the market share of mobile messenger Apps & iMessage situation.

Do you think that adding Animoji will very help increase the active users of Messaging apps? By Animoji

Maybe ? But it is hard to agree. I think there are other important strategies.

For reference, Increasing Facebook active user from 2016 to 2017,   Chatbot announced in April 2016.

Again,

Apple celebrates its 10th anniversary, the Animoji is one of main key features of the phone for the next 10 years.

Why?


Let's see the movie.

Question.

What kind of the assistant do you imagine beyond Chat Bot > Voice Assistant? 

Yes, we can guess answer. 


What is needed to realize this?


Let's see one more movie.

Soul Machines on News Hub : https://youtu.be/0-BSrFQv2ls

To realized it, you know what needs from the viewpoint of Machine learning > Supervised learning.

Yes. Data!!


Again,

Why is Animoji important to Apple Manufacturing company?

This content was created last year when I saw an iPhone 7 keynote and shared it within the company. 

But I updated it to add article about Apple's service revenue in 2017.


Overview

People said they were disappointed that Apple did't have new technology(Wow or Innovation ).

But there is something interesting.


iOS10 : Siri, Home Kit, Message, Live phone, RAW

1.Design - Glass, black
2.Home button
Home, Multitasking, Siri, Accessibility, Touch ID, Reachability, Apple Pay
à Taptic Engine for Quick Action (Messages, Notifications, Ringtones)
3.Water and dust resistant
4.12MP Camera stabilization,f1.8, 6 Lens, Quad-LED, Updated ISP, Front Camera 7MP
    iPhone7+ : Twin 12MP Camera(Wide&Telephoto)- Zoom 2x, Sneak Peek
5.Retina HD display – Cinema standard, Color management, 3D Touch
6.Stereo Speaker
7.EarPods – adapt –
8.AirPods(Dual accelerometer &optical Sensor & Microphone) – Siri, Phone call, 5H
9.Apply Pay – Japan (Watch)

10.Performance - A10 Fusion 


Today, the several new technologies announced were related for camera functions.


Why is camera function important?


Why is camera function important? 

I think Apple's strategy has something to do with us.


iPhone 7 is pleased to disrupt the mass camera market.

But this level of strategy is a normal strategy the manufacturer has.

You know, competition by better function can be good weapon. 

But this is not all the benefits they want to achieve.


The iPhone, which does not support micro SD, provide more and more high resolution camera, and gradually it will be able to guide users to use storage called iCloud.

The technology like high-resolution cameras is a good material to strengthen service Biz like iCloud.


Apple's benefits by the iPhone 7 launch

-Sales revenue & increasing Market Share (Mass camera market penetration) 

-Service Biz Revenue through the sold products

-Lock-in effect


The most important of these is Service Biz revenue.


Apple's Service Biz (App store, iCloud, iTunes and Apple Pay) Revenue in 2Q 2017

...

Apple's Revenue for the past four quarters totaled roughly $26.5 billion, which trounces Netflix's total revenue over the same period of about $9.5 billion. It's also catching up to Facebook, which generated $27.6 billion in revenue in the past four quarters. 

..

Apple doesn't break out revenue for each of Services' individual units (the App Store, iCloud, iTunes and Apple Pay), but the App Store remains its biggest cash cow. Second to that would be iCloud Storage, which Cook said experienced double-digit revenue growth during the second quarter.
