Apple highlighted its brand new Apple Intelligence artificial intelligence platform at an event on Monday after announcing a partnership with OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT. The market responded by sending Apple shares to a new record high at $200.33.
The stock price rose about 3.7% after Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference presentation, during which the company revealed a number of updates to its operating systems, but not everyone is buying the Big Tech partnership.
X owner Elon Musk warned that integrating OpenAI into iPhone operating systems is “an unacceptable security violation” and said if the tech giant does integrate OpenAI into its OS, all Apple devices will be banned at Musk’s companies and “visitors will have to check their Apple devices at the door, where they will be stored in a Faraday cage.”
“It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy!” Musk posted on X. “Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.”
According to Apple, Apple Intelligence will be integrated into Siri and will additionally allow users to create original images and retrieve relevant information.
Apple joins Meta, Microsoft, and X as major tech companies making big investments in AI.

“This is a moment we’ve been working toward for a long time,” Apple Senior Vice President Craig Federighi said at the event, where he described the technology as “AI for the rest of us.”
The Washington Examiner reached out to Apple and OpenAI for comment.
