Elon Musk Has Promised to Ban Apple Gadgets from His Companies if They Implement the New AI
"If Apple embeds OpenAI at the operating system level, Apple devices will be banned from my companies. This is an unacceptable security breach,” wrote Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, Tesla, and Neuralink, on X (which he also acquired).
Musk stated that even visitors will have to surrender their Apple devices at the entrance, where they will be kept in a special cage.
He expressed skepticism about Apple's ability to guarantee the promised security of the data, arguing that Apple does not fully understand what happens to the data when it is handed over to OpenAI. Musk believes that Apple should have developed its own AI instead.
This announcement follows Apple's recent introduction of two AI features in its gadgets: built-in Apple Intelligence, which will affect the phone's operation, and integration of ChatGPT from OpenAI into individual applications.
