Elon Musk's latest anti-Apple tirade is about a ChatGPT feature that doesn't exist

Bet MS/OpenAI pay Apple like Google does for search b/c data sent to ChatGPT 4 will help train their models. -

macOS Sequoia brings iPhone remote control and new Passwords app

I couldn't tell from the brief preview they gave. What additional information are you referring to? Pictures? Seriously hoping the password app will let me ditch my 3rd party apps.
With the state issued ID I have created info for when it was issued, when it expired, all the various data on the card. The same for my passport. For the aforementioned appliance, I have the manual as a PDF under it instead of lost somewhere in a folder or in a physical drawer, along with the login for the website (if it has one), a link to the model info, when it was purchased, how much and where, warranty info, etc.
I also have all my bank info and CCs in there. If I lose my wallet I never have t worry that I can't remember all the cards that were in my wallet or try ti find the correct card into or numbers to call to cancel because it's all in my secure password manager. I never have to google for a bank and then work to verify the the number I'm about ti call isn't from a spoofed number from a scam website.
There are also Secure Notes that have decent markup tools in 1P. Keychain Access does technically have a secure note feature but it's a chore to access and use in comparison.
There are also the issue with URLs for an account. From what I can see it only allows one per login, and yet there are many websites that support multiple. There's also no way to add secret questions w/ answers, PINs, contact info, names, email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers in a way that won't simply be jumbled in the Notes section. There's also no good way to keep track of medial info in an organized way.
I'm sure I'm missing many of the ways in which my digital vault is being used, but that is what I could think of off the top of my head. Maybe you are someone with a single address and phone number with a single bank account and one CC, but my life is considerably more complex and I like that my data is both secure and accessed efficiently because of the feature of 1Password... which I know could be improved drastically to be even better.
PS: On that topic of efficiency and organization which I didn't see addressed today is Calendar working with Reminders so I can have reoccurring calendar entries that I can also check off without having to edit them individually, adding an emoji, and then choosing to save once and NOT for all future events to show that it was done. -

2) So, you trust him about ChatPGT somehow overtaking Apple devices even though it's an opt-in feature and is only for external searching, just like you use Google to search the internet v searching Messages for a passed conversation? Makes sense. 🙄
