There is proof you are able to train an artificial intelligence model
Apple engineers have created an artificial intelligence (AI) model for text, images, and chatbots called MM1. It’s designed to work with a wide range of data, including text, images and videos. MM1 is measured by a number of parameters, such as internal variables that get adjusted as it is trained. The model works on a user’s text as well as images.
