OpenAI Acquires Multi, Raises Privacy Concerns as Screen-Sharing Service Shuts Down
June 25, 2024
OpenAI has acquired the collaboration software company Multi, formerly known as Remotion, following their recent acquisition of Rockset.
Multi, specialized in screen-sharing for Mac users, will cease operations on July 24 and delete user data.
The Multi team will now contribute to OpenAI's ChatGPT Desktop team, enhancing the app's capabilities for Mac users.
This move has raised concerns about privacy and security, with users questioning the implications of AI tools having access to their screens.
OpenAI has faced criticism over safety and oversight issues, including the addition of a former NSA director to its board.
Despite speculation about how Multi's technology will be integrated, details remain undisclosed.
Users in need of assistance with transitioning to alternative platforms can reach out to the company.
