I have faith that Apple would do this right. Your phone is unlikely to hit Google directly for AI stuff. It would be just another iCloud service.

It’s all about money for Apple. Not about user privacy. They track lots of info from their users as well and even want to sell AppleTV+ subscriptions with advertising!! Ridiculous

The erosion of privacy was always an absolute certainty once Apple started the transition to becoming a service-based company, and why I only choose Linux-compatible cross-platform apps and services for everything essential.

Apple fanboys (or paid guerrilla marketers) have downvoted me every time I point this out, and I’m sure that will continue… indefinitely.
