“ Apple claimed that it was “setting a new standard for privacy in AI”, hiring independent experts to inspect its code in order to verify that data from iPhone, iPad and Mac is sent and stored cryptographically to ensure security.
“Privacy protections are built in for users who access ChatGPT – their IP addresses are obscured, and OpenAI won’t store requests,” the tech giant said. “ChatGPT’s data-use policies apply for users who choose to connect their account.”
OpenAI echoed Apple in its announcement, stating that “privacy protections are built in when accessing ChatGPT within Siri and Writing Tools”, adding that “requests are not stored by OpenAI, and users’ IP addresses are obscured”.
Mr Musk continued to question the partnership between Apple and OpenAI in the hours following the WWDC keynote announcement, describing it as “extremely concerning” and engaging with those defending Apple’s privacy credentials.
“Apple using the words ‘protect your privacy’ while handing your data over to a third-party AI that they don’t understand and can’t themselves create is *not* protecting privacy at all,” he wrote on X in response to a post by popular YouTuber Marques Brownlee.
Mr Musk’s post was flagged by X’s content moderation system, which noted that his claim “misrepresents what was actually announced” by Apple.
“Apple Intelligence is Apple’s own creation, and ChatGPT is entirely separate, and controlled by the user,” the note stated.
Mr Brownlee also responded, writing that he had spoken to Apple boss Tim Cook, who said that no data is sent to OpenAI without explicit user permission.
The entrepreneur also hinted that he was planning to build his own phone, writing that it was “not out of the question” that his social media firm would partner with Samsung to manufacture a privacy-focussed ‘X phone’.

Now I know what a stupid troll he is.
Good luck “building a “privacy focused” phone with ….Samsung”. Is it going to drive and crash like your Teslas on auto pilot?
