"Apple Investors Reject Request for AI Transparency Report, CEO Tim Cook Promises Breakthroughs in Generative AI"

Apple shareholders rejected a proposal for an artificial intelligence transparency report, which would have examined the ethical use of AI, along with other measures related to equal employment policies and human rights. The proposal, submitted by AFL-CIO Equity Index Funds, was voted down at Apple’s annual meeting. CEO Tim Cook promised that Apple would "break new ground" in AI this year and highlighted the company's efforts in machine learning. Apple has been less open than its peers about its plans for generative AI but has promised to discuss its plans later this year.
