A few days ago, Apple said they will begin to analyze on-device user data as part of a broader push to strengthen its AI platform (Apple Intelligence) through a method known as Synthetic Data.

Synthetic Data mirrors the structure and style of real user data that we put out in our devices when we consume content or communicate with others, collecting the statistical insight from large datasets to ensure your data remains confidential.

Apple said it will soon develop its privacy in its opt-in device analytics program to make sure only commonly used prompts are identified, preventing the association of data with specific users by…

• Data collection: generating and analyzing synthetic data only locally.
• Comparison: synthetic data is compared with local users data to assess relevance.
• Anonymous reporting: Devices send back signals indicating how effective the synthetic data was, without seeing users content.
• Model training: Apple aggregates these signals to refine AI models…
