Imagine all the training they’ll get from random queries off of the millions of Apple users who don’t even know what chat GPT even is yet.
Supposedly they're not allowed to use any data obtained from this for training purposes, at least according to the mkbhd video
It's like telling your water to not run down the drain
I guess it deepened on what the onboarding flow looks like for newbies. The per-query alert is pretty minimal.
That said, my original point is that training data gathered from queries is probably not valuable enough to offset the costs of unpaid GP4 query compute for the biggest smart phone manufacturer on earth.
The data is valuable, but for GP4 access, OpenAI would rather scrape chat forums, sell integration licenses, or sell pro licenses to offset all those damn Nvidia chips.
Maybe OpenAI is hoping the cost of a couple million queries within a month will be offset once they start charging for it within a month or two.
I doubt that’s the play. OpenAI is probably locked into a service contract, and Apple had built the platform so different 3rd party LLMs can be swapped out by Apple or the end user. So if OpenAI breached the contract, Apple could go with a different default model.
