Apple bans ChatGPT at work for its employees

Apple store

While there is now a new, official ChatGPT app that you can now download on your best iPhone, Apple has just told its staff that they cannot use ChatGPT – or any generative AI system – in their work for the company. In an exclusive report on the Wallstreet Journal, you can see that Apple sent around an internal note to all its staff, with a simple, clear message – 'No AI.'

This doesn't just seem to be about the implications and the growing weariness in the public eye of AI, or that Apple doesn't want a competitor being used within its head office – instead, it's an issue of security.
