LOL this is the biggest problem with AI. It gets it right most of the time but it is not remotely trustworthy, which makes it virtually useless.
As they should. I was hoping they weren't so fucking stupid as to fall for this garbage.
Apple is just as bad as the other big players. They just have a better image, but it will fade with time.
There are no good corporations.
The have not been as face-down in OpenAI as microsoft or as quick to trigger it as Google. They pulled out of their OpenAI commitment early on, presumably after seeing backstage and realizing it wasn't going to go anwhere fast.
That's the image. We don't know the reasoning.
And in any event, they're clearly profit driven like anyone else. You dont get that big without it. I don't think an expectation of altruism from a corporation is realistic.
To be sure, there are numerous examples of Apple screwing over its own customers. Locking device components to individual devices is great to kill the 3rd party repair market, but it would be a stretch to say it was a pro-consumer move.
Certainly - but not with idiot products that don't work. New things that don't work with the old stuff that they think is better, adapters, OS's, etc., but not out-and-out garbage.
At best, AI can run concise searches on quesitons everybody has and spit out a paragraph that isn't specifically wrong. That's it. And whether we need that or not, the times it doesn't work and the expense it takes to do anything at all is just a poor product choice. Like a TV that goes blank every so often, and plays the wrong audio track sometimes, and so on - that's not a thing because no one wants it.
It's so frustrating that so much is now affected by AI hallucination. I really hope for the day where these AIs will be history.
