I gave his AI a try for a while. I was using voice to talk to it instead of typing and then after a little while it abruptly changed its voice to sound exactly like me. Training and creating a voice based on my voice, without my consent, and just turning it on, was just about the most off-putting and creepy thing they could have done. I immediately cancelled my subscription and deleted the app. This wasn't Craig Federighi's fault, it was Elon's, and whoever he put in charge of making decisions like that.
OpenAI is reportedly going to sue Apple for that integration being poorly done.
While Apple is reportedly preparing to use Gemini and offer public APIs for other AI services to integrate in the way OpenAI has.
Federighi's emails should be very popcorn-worthy.
