APPLE'S AI PROMISE: “YOUR DATA IS NEVER STORED OR MADE ACCESSIBLE TO APPLE”

Apple's new Apple Intelligence system will use Private Cloud Compute to ensure any data processed on its cloud servers is protected in a transparent and verifiable way. Many of Apple's generative AI models can run entirely on a device powered by an A17+ or M-series chip. When a bigger model is required to fulfill a generative AI request, Apple Intelligence only sends relevant data to complete the task to special Apple silicon servers. Customer data will not be saved for future server access or used to further train models. The server code used for Private Cloud Compute will be publicly accessible.

STUDY FINDS A QUARTER OF BOSSES HOPED RTO WOULD MAKE EMPLOYEES QUIT

A study of more than 1,500 employees found that a quarter of executives and a fifth of HR professionals hoped that return-to-office (RTO) mandates would result in staff leaving. While people did quit when RTO mandates were enforced at many of the largest companies, it wasn't enough - many of the layoffs in the past 12 months were believed to be a result of too few people leaving in protest of RTO mandates. Many employees feel that management wants them back in the office to monitor them more closely. This has resulted in the growth of an office culture that is even more performative, suspicious, and divisive than before the COVID-19 pandemic.
