Apple's Privacy-Preserving Approach to AI Improvement
2025-04-14

Apple is committed to user privacy, even while improving its AI features like Genmoji, image generation tools, and writing tools. They employ differential privacy, anonymizing user data to collect only aggregated trend information, such as popular Genmoji prompts. For AI features handling longer text like emails, Apple uses synthetic data. This generates synthetic data mimicking real user data patterns for model training and testing without accessing actual email content. This allows Apple to enhance product experiences while ensuring user privacy remains paramount.
