Apple Employees Restricted from Using ChatGPT, But CEO Tim Cook Enjoys AI Chatbot

Apple CEO, Tim Cook, recently expressed his excitement for an AI chatbot, ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI. In an interview with Good Morning America, Cook confirmed his personal use of the chatbot. However, while Cook sees potential for AI, Apple has restricted employee use of the technology due to privacy concerns. Cook also emphasized the need for ethical considerations and regulation in the AI space. He believes companies should make their own ethical decisions and practice self-regulation. Cook’s comments differ from those of competitors like Microsoft and Google, who have embraced generative AI through their products. Nevertheless, Cook’s remarks signal Apple’s commitment to advancing AI technology while being mindful of the importance of ethical and regulatory considerations.
