Apple said on Friday that it plans to change its Mac operating system to make it more obvious when AI agents ask to access all of the data on Macs. Some users have criticized Meta’s Muse, an AI agent capable of carrying out complex tasks like canceling unused subscriptions or haggling for better prices. These people claimed the agent accessed what users believed to be private messages.On Apple’s iPhones and iPads, no single app can access data inside another app by default, a technique called sandboxing. But Apple’s Macs are more flexible, with a “Full Disk Access” option that allows apps such as cloud backup services to access all the data on a machine, with a user’s permission. How will the agents learn and improve with the AI demands fro alot of data ?
