Does anyone know if Apple uses Kubernetes in their cloud?

Siri, at least, operated on Mesos last I heard:

I would be surprised if they haven't done a k8s PoC at the very least though.

From snooping around at KubeCon NA last December, my impression is that Apple is doing something involving GPU computing on top of Kubernetes. My guess would be machine learning, but they were characteristically hush-hush about it.

I don't know that for a fact, but I have seen Apple people at KubeCon, for what it's worth.
They use Nomad from Hashicorp in certain parts of their cloud.
Do you have more info on this?
