AI tokens extend losses

Following tech giant Apple’s announcement of AI feature integration and improvement in its virtual assistant Siri, AI tokens extended their losses. Typically, AI-related positive announcements catalyze gains in asset prices. However, Apple’s AI push failed to have the same effect.
Musk slams Apple’s OpenAI partnership
In a recent tweet on X, Elon Musk said that it is “patently absurd” that Apple put the security and privacy of its users in OpenAI’s hands. Musk slammed the tech giant and said,
Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.
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!
