  • Finally, a reasonable comment.

    I would concede that they want to keep it all for themselves, although a lot of anonymising of data is done.

    My point is Apple are not sharing it with every third party on the Earth.

    If you’re using Android then you don’t really have a leg to stand on, unless you’re using GrapheneOS and you’ve sandboxed Google services.

    I would rather use a device that maybe keeps it all for themselves. Rather than one where it is shared with Everyman and his dog.

    Plenty of things you can shit on Apple for, but this isn’t one of them I’m afraid.




  • Because Apples lawyers will go ham.

    I don’t want my comments here to be received as shilling Apple, more that I want them to based on actual information that is provided and not opinion pieces.

    The fact is, if they were to caught saving data then Apple would just end the contract. Is it worth it for them to lose out on that cash, for the sake of using it. When they can just use all the other sources where they are allowed to do that.

    Anyway, I don’t care what anonymised data they may or may not save. It won’t be tied to me.

    Edit: Do you have some information on this existing lawsuits and the contracts they broke?


  • Brother I do not care about your doubts.

    I want hard facts here.

    Do you think that if you enter into a contract with a company like Apple they’ll just be like, aww shit they weren’t supposed to do that. Anyway let’s carry on.

    No. This would open OpenAi up to potential lawsuits.

    Even if they did save stuff. It gets anonymised by Apple before even being sent to ChatGPT servers.


  • Doubt.

    Is this conjecture or can you provide some further reading, in the interest of not spreading misinformation.

    Edit: I decided to read the info from Apple.

    With Private Cloud Compute, Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing, and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers. When requests are routed to Private Cloud Compute, data is not stored or made accessible to Apple and is only used to fulfill the user’s requests, and independent experts can verify this privacy.

    Additionally, access to ChatGPT is integrated into Siri and systemwide Writing Tools across Apple’s platforms, allowing users to access its expertise — as well as its image- and document-understanding capabilities — without needing to jump between tools.

    Say what you will about Apple, but privacy isn’t a concern for me. Perhaps, some independent experts will verify this in time.


  • Well, most of the requests are handled on device with their own models. If it’s going to ChatGPT for something it will ask for permission and then use ChatGPT.

    So the Apple Intelligence isn’t all ChatGPT. I think this deserves to be mentioned as a lot of the processing will be on device.

    Also, I believe part of the deal is ChatGPT can save nothing and Apple are anonymising the requests too.



  • So I preface by saying finance isn’t my forte, but I would like to raise a few thoughts I had whilst reading this.

    The first is that the state can just create more currency to pay for things, which to my understanding is not always the case, if you saturate the market with your currency it becomes less valuable and we end up with runaway inflation.

    The other point is on the no need for taxes and that we tax the richest and the corporations to remove some of the money supply, clearly this isn’t something that happens as taxes for both of these is rarely raised at the same rate it is for regular people.

    Finally, we have most people, in the western world at least, living literal pay check to pay check whilst the likes of Microsoft have gone from less than $2B to over $3B in a few years. The same can be said for Nvidia and many many more.

    Edit: I guess my point is, just because this is how things work doesn’t mean things shouldn’t change. Clearly something is broken.


  • If 90% of the countries in the world are in debt and corporations have more money than god, then clearly the system isn’t ideal.

    $34T is insane for one single country.

    As for infrastructure, proper taxation of corporations would raise more revenue to fix such things. If Amazon is contributing to the breakdown of roads due to all the couriers then they should be paying more tax.

    Look at the water companies in the UK. Paid out their shareholders for decades and did nothing to improve the infrastructure which is now likely to end up with them being nationalised after they’ve looted what they could.
