ChatGPT, which was made available to everyone in November 2022, reached millions of active users in just a few days. Artificial intelligence chatbot has started to be used in repetitive tasks such as printing code and requesting summary of documents, especially in the technology sector.
But the biggest danger of this situation emerged with the leak event that Samsung experienced. Apple, which does not want to experience this event on its own behalf, has banned its employees from using chatbots, according to the information obtained.
Not only ChatGPT but also Bard and all other bots are banned:
According to documents obtained by The Wall Street Journal, Apple has banned the bots in question to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information, just as seen in Samsung. The company has even banned GitHub’s Copilot helper, as well as chatbots.
But privacy isn’t the only reason, Apple may be developing its own tool too!
The documents uncovered also revealed very interesting details. In the documents in question, it was stated that Apple developed artificial intelligence-supported assistive technologies for its employees. There is no information about these technologies.
Let’s look at other companies:
ChatGPT has been banned by Samsung and Apple, as well as JPMorgan Chase and Verizon. Instead of going directly to a ban, Amazon advised its employees to use the tools within Amazon.
