The company invites security researchers to vet Private Cloud Compute, a server system that will process the most complex generative AI tasks for Apple Intelligence.
Apple is offering a reward of up to $1 million to anyone who can hack its new fleet of AI-focused servers meant for Apple Intelligence, which is slated to launch next week.
Apple is asking researchers to test the security of « Private Cloud Compute », the servers that will receive and process user requests for Apple Intelligence when the AI task is too complex for the on-device processing of an iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
To address privacy concerns, Apple designed Private Cloud Compute servers to immediately delete a user’s request once the task is fulfilled. In addition, the system features end-to-end encryption, meaning Apple cannot uncover the user requests made through Apple Intelligence, even though it controls the server hardware.
