Elon Musk is threatening to ban iPhones from all his companies over the newly announced OpenAI integrations Apple announced at WWDC 2024 on Monday.
This allows users to get an answer from ChatGPT without having to open the ChatGPT iOS app.
Apple also announced another integration that would allow users have access to ChatGPT system-wide within Writing Tools via a “compose” feature.
That’s great news for OpenAI, which will soon have a massive influx of requests from Apple users.
Apple users may not understand the nuances of the privacy issues here, of course — which is what Musk is counting on by making these complaints.
Ms. Rachel isn’t a household name, but if you spend a lot of time with toddlers, she might as well be a rockstar.
Ms. Rachel – a music teacher named Rachel Accurso – decided to use her platform for good.
And for a full-time content creator and graduate student in early childhood education, that’s not much time to record 500 personalized videos.
However, Cameo was aware of Ms. Rachel’s highly popular fundraiser, since Cameo posted about it on X.
Given that Ms Rachel intended to fulfill her Cameo requests, it’s unclear why Cameo didn’t grant her additional time to do so in the first place, rather than refunding buyers.

Remember Ballie, Samsung’s spherical home robot from CES 2020?
I sure didn’t — until Samsung brought it back at this year’s keynote with a few on-trend AI upgrades.
The new and improved Ballie, which Samsung previewed during its press conference at CES 2024 in Las Vegas today, is around the size of a bowling ball, packing a battery that’s designed to last two to three hours.
In the latter case, Ballie will respond with the aid of a chatbot to confirm requests before taking action.
“With its built-in front [and] rear camera, [Ballie] can detect and analyze its surroundings and learn recurring user patterns,” Samsung continues in the press release.
