蘋果的聲明是在一項調查之後發表的，該調查顯示，蘋果和其他科技公司使用了超過17萬個YouTube字幕來訓練其人工智能模型。
However, Apple has now clarified that the OpenELM model, accessible on Apple's Machine Learning Research website, does not power any of its Apple Intelligence features.
但是，蘋果現已澄清說，可在蘋果機器學習研究網站上訪問的OpenELM模型不支持其任何蘋果情報功能。
Apple has previously stated that its Intelligence models were trained "on licensed data, including data selected to enhance specific features, as well as publicly available data collected by our web crawler."
蘋果此前曾表示，其情報模型是 “根據許可數據進行訓練的，包括爲增強特定功能而選擇的數據，以及我們的網絡爬蟲收集的公開數據”。
