M&F 396 Coverart

In this week's episode of The Mac & Forth Show, Dean, Steve, and Karl discuss the European Union's clash with Apple over the withholding of its AI technology from the region. They also delve into the recent move by Phil Schiller to become an observer on OpenAI's board. The hosts cover the unsettling discovery that the ChatGPT for Mac app was logging user queries in an unencrypted file, shedding light on privacy concerns. Additionally, they tackle the recent hack of Authy, which resulted in the theft of 33 million user phone numbers, and discuss the security ramifications. Lastly, the team reviews Apple's latest additions to its vintage products list, including the iPhone X, HomePod, and AirPods, reflecting on their impact and legacy. All this, and slightly more on this week’s episode.
