Who doesn’t know Tesla, one of the American multinational automotive and clean energy companies that is full of innovation. Recently, there has been hot news, not about Tesla’s own innovation, but about Tesla CEO’s dislike of Apple’s partnership with Open AI.
Elon Musk, CEO of the electric car brand, openly showed his dislike of Apple’s decision to use ChatGPT in integrating “Apple Intelligence” which was announced last Monday at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024. He said firmly that he would “ban” his employees from using Apple devices if the technology giant continued to launch “Apple Intelligence“.
“If Apple integrates OpenAI at the OS level, then Apple devices will be banned at my companies. That is an unacceptable security violation.”
In a post on X, he said firmly that he would ask visitors to leave their Apple devices in a Faraday cage while visiting the store.
“And visitors will have to check their Apple devices at the door, where they will be stored in a Faraday cage”
Meanwhile, a YouTuber who focuses on technology, Marques Brownlee, in his post shared a basic summary of “Apple Intelligence”, in that post Musk replied by saying that Apple uses “Third-Party” to collect user data. The statement was firmly denied by Marques Brownlee by saying that he would not provide or collect user data without permission.
“I asked @tim_cook. He said Apple at no point sends any of your data to OpenAI without explicit user permission. Video coming later”
As we know, last year Musk launched his own Artificial intelligence, xAI, a competitor of Open AI claimed to have raised $6 billion last month. As we know, Musk himself has a strained relationship with the company’s CEO, Sam Altman, and sued them for allegedly violating OpenAI’s founding agreement and deviating from its non-profit mission.
So what will happen in the future if Apple still partners with Open AI? Will this tension continue? Stay tuned to techmonquay for the continuation
