Elon Musk threatens to ban the use of Apple devices at his headquarters if the tech giant decides to integrate with OpenAI

Elon Musk has threatened to ban the use of Apple devices across all his companies if the tech giant goes ahead with its plans to integrate artificial intelligence into its iPhones.

At its annual developer conference in California earlier this week, Apple announced it would be bringing artificial intelligence to its devices.

But Musk, the owner of SpaceX and Tesla, responded that employees and visitors to his company websites “will need to check their Apple devices at the door.”

He added: “Apple devices will be banned. This is an unacceptable security breach.”

Apple’s voice assistant, Siri, will be integrated with ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence-based software developed by OpenAI.

Mr. Musk has a tense relationship with OpenAI. The company’s founder in 2015 left the company a few years later and recently initiated legal action against the company, calling it a “threat to humanity” and alleging that it did not adhere to its founding principles.
