In a message on his social network This pact will allow the ChatGPT artificial intelligence chatbot to be used with the Siri voice assistant in the most advanced Apple models. If this threat is carried out, the workers of the electric car company Tesla, the aeronautics company SpaceX, the satellite manufacturer Starlink, the tunnel boring machine Boring Company or X itself, formerly Twitter, all of them Musk companies, will not be able to use iPhone phones, iPad tablets or Mac computers.
“This is an unacceptable security violation,” Musk said in a post that within a few hours had more than 20 million views. In a later post, he added: “And visitors (to their company facilities) will have to leave their Apple devices at the door, where they will be stored in a Faraday cage,” referring to a receptacle capable of isolating radiation. electromagnetic. Soon, he returned to the fray: “It is patently absurd that Apple is not smart enough to create its own AI, and that (it thinks that) it will somehow be able to guarantee that OpenAI protects security and privacy! “Apple has no idea what really happens once they hand over their data to OpenAI.”
If Apple integrates OpenAI at the OS level, then Apple devices will be banned at my companies. That is an unacceptable security violation.

Hours earlier, Apple had announced its long-awaited commitment to AI (which did not catch anyone by surprise, after a leak of information in the previous days). The Apple Intelligence system arrives a year and a half after the emergence of ChatGPT, between promises of democratization of knowledge and threats to the future of Humanity, and includes an update of Apple’s famous voice assistant, Siri, which from October will be able to access the OpenAI chatbot to resolve any questions you may have. The technology company led by Tim Cook promised during the presentation in Cupertino (California) that users will be asked for permission to share their questions with ChatGPT. Also, the agreement does not include authorization to store private information.
Due to the demands of its features, the Artificial Intelligence news will only work on iPhone 15 Pro phones onwards, and only with tablets and computers equipped with the most advanced processors (M1 and up).
Last March, Musk sued OpenAI, a company whose founding he participated in 2015 and whose board of directors he left three years later, as well as its CEO, Sam Altman. The reason? He considered that this had abandoned its original mission: to develop AI technology on a non-profit basis for the benefit of humanity. The complaint, filed in a San Francisco court, says: “This lawsuit is filed to force OpenAI to adhere to the founding agreement and return to its mission of developing generative artificial intelligence for the benefit of humanity, not for “personally benefit the individual defendants and the world’s largest technology company (Microsoft, which owns 49% of OpenAi).”
Musk has founded his own startup artificial intelligence, xAI. The company reached a valuation of $24 billion in its latest financing round, in which it added $6 billion. A few days after filing the lawsuit, his chatbot, Grok, became open source and published it on the Internet so that any developer could access it.
