Based Elon take. Honestly probably some super stupid petty reason or half bake effective altruism bs, but companies should 100% consider products that hoover up ever piece data of their companies data to a preemptive strike to out compete them in the future.
If people don't think googles and openais data collection (including reenforcement learning from product us) is at going to try to the center if market making for those companies they are paying attention.
He's a hypocrite, and a piece of shit. Stop listening to him. Stop reading his tweets. Stop giving him any attention at all. He's dirt under our boots and deserves nothing more.
I use a filter on Mastodon so I can limit how much Elon Musk headlines I see. People love to talk about him, I mean here we are.....but at least with the filter I can tune out the noise most of the time. It's blissful. A shame there's no filters (that I know of) on Lemmy to hide asshats like this. I already know Musk is a POS, I don't need to see a dozen articles every single day to remind me.....
What does he think, Apple is going to release a keynote tomorrow with Tim Cook saying “ah, my bad, Elon doesn’t like it so we’re rolling it back”. And if he blocks Apple devices from
Viewing Xitter, they’ll finally move on to other platforms which will potentially cut his user base in half.
I'm not gonna click the link (no hits for anything Elon), but the headline says he's banning devices from his companies, so his employees will have to use anything but Apple...is what it sounds like.
He’s trying to bring attention to his ongoing campaign to show that OpenAI are somehow evil crooks that cheated him and are going to destroy the world. He projects much.
This doesn't specify X, so it's probably Tesla too, except I seriously doubt this threat is serious, because banning iPhone integration from Tesla, would probably hurt Tesla sales, and hurt Tesla and Musk 1000 times more than Apple.
He was technically a founding member, but left the company. Literally all of this is because he's jealous he can't pull a Tesla and claim all the credit for another tech company.
Wait... that's hilarious. He was part of openai? What kind of fucking idiot leaves that so early? I mean, maybe leaving this year for moral reasons... Sure. But he did this previously? What a fucking moron.
There was some internal dispute and he also claimed it was a conflict of interest with Tesla developing AI stuff. But I can't imagine how any conflict that may have existed with OpenAI doesn't exist with xAI
He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”
I’d be very surprised if corporates wouldn’t just be able to disable it in MDM for their worker’s phones. Not sure it’s Apple who has ‘no clue’ here.
Yep, this seems like the exact kind of thing companies would enforce with MDM.
I know one of my previous companies would enforce certain settings were changed if you wanted to install the MDM profile on a BYOD phone (like minimum 8 digit PIN), so requiring you to opt out of OpenAI Siri integration seems like a policy MDMs would offer.
(Though I would never install a company’s MDM profile on my personal phone lol - if they want me to be accessible and have work apps, they can provide a separate work phone)
