Is ChatGPT Atlas an Apple product?

Why do you say "Apple seems to be quite keen on it"? Don't confuse ChatGPT integration in Apple Intelligence with ChatGPT Atlas that is a separate browser installed on a Mac by going to the OpenAI website and downloading it manually.

Personally I would not be using ChatGPT Atlas as a browser due to the many security concerns already exposed in that app. It does correctly ask for your permission for data on your device after install as required by Apple to protect your data, but most will just click Allow without realizing the consequences. Do you really want to give it Keychain Access to know your Passwords for other services? What additional information can be gained about you when it can access content from those services? Any page you navigate to is scraped since they are the ones providing you the data and any page request you make is remembered so they know what you are looking for and interested in. Enter a bank account number on one of those websites and you have now given them that information as well.

No, ChatGPT Atlas is not an Apple product. It is an OpenAI product. There is no forum for it here.

I suspect you can find a subReddit about it.

And for those readers comparatively new to how Apple can operate, third-party integration can come and go.

Apple integrated Twitter into iOS a while back (Apple PR), and later removed that, for instance.

ChatGPT is integrated with Apple operating systems as part of Apple Intelligence - it can be found in System Settings > Apple Intelligence & Siri > Extensions > ChatGPT. However, it's a partnership between Apple and OpenAI; Apple does not own it.

ChatGPT Atlas is OpenAI's browser, and while they've chosen to offer it exclusively for Mac right now, it's still fully developed by OpenAI, and Apple has no involvement.

Hello~ Well… rest assured ChatGPT has absolutely no “ mind reading capabilities. “ That being said you have no need to worry.

There is a forum section for Apple Intelligence here:

Apple Intelligence - Apple Community

If you are worried then don’t turn it on. It is not enabled by default. You have to establish an account with Open AI (free or paid) and then enable and sign in on which ever device supports Apple Intelligence.

What exactly do you mean by its “mind reading capabilities”? It doesn’t read minds and I’m afraid you have been reading too much disinformation about what AI is and how it works. It is not sentient in any way, shape or form.
