Why It Matters: This security flaw comes on the heels of significant developments between OpenAI and Apple Inc. In June, Apple announced a partnership with OpenAI to integrate ChatGPT into its devices. This collaboration is part of Apple's broader push into artificial intelligence, aiming to enhance Siri and introduce new writing tools.
爲什麼重要：這個安防漏洞出現在OpenAI與蘋果公司的重大合作之後。6月，蘋果宣佈與OpenAI合作將ChatGPT整合到他們的設備中。該合作是蘋果在人工智能領域推進的一部分，旨在增強Siri和引入新的撰寫工具。
However, this partnership has raised concerns within Microsoft Corp, a major investor in OpenAI. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella met with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to discuss the potential impact of this deal on Microsoft's AI ambitions.
但是，這個合作引起了微軟公司內部的關注，微軟是OpenAI的重要投資者。微軟首席執行官薩提亞·納德拉曾與OpenAI首席執行官薩姆·奧爾特曼會面，討論了這項交易對微軟人工智能計劃的潛在影響。
Additionally, the partnership is being further solidified, with former Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller expected to join OpenAI's board as an observer.
此外，這個合作伙伴關係正在進一步鞏固，前蘋果營銷主管菲爾·席勒預計加入OpenAI的董事會作爲觀察員。
