That's nice of you but your users are going to just copy-paste data to and from ChatGPT anyway.

I think the difference is in the scale. I think Apple’s asking you to index / share all of the data from your app. Virtually no user is going to copy & paste every single message into ChatGPT.

And so I think there’s a meaningful difference between the app donating all the data automatically, vs making the data available to the user who is free to share what they want.
