Supposedly Apple claims to encrypt it at rest and in transit.

But data goes to the mothership anyway.

'Bad actors' can't read your chatgpt conversations either, but OpenAI still does and can sell it.

Apple may better than Google, but I still don't want my data there.

Yeah also Prism - hello? Over 10 years ago we discovered that US can just enter any US based company's server and read anything they want unless it's directly encrypted but for these tools to function they have to decrypt data server side so LLMs can read the contents. Which means your data is not private in any way shape or form, not from Apple and not from US and not from anything in-between.

These claims by Apple are absolutely meaningless smoke for the ignorant who just follow tech buzzwords.

And what is that supposed to guarantee? Who ever owns the hardware of unencrypted data owns it. There's no way to pass tokens to LLM without unencrypting the content. Whatever path is made to obfuscation is fundamentally incapable of security.
